February 20, 2020 on the basis of the laboratory of the human microbiome and means of its correction, our institute hosted the first inter-laboratory seminar of young scientists on the use of mass spectrometry.

The headliner of the seminar was Senior Researcher, Ph.D. Tochilina Anna Georgievna. A total of 9 young scientists and employees of the institute were present.
In the theoretical part of the seminar, a brief overview of the device of a time-of-flight mass spectrometer was presented, in particular, its detecting system, the principle of operation of the instrument, the features of sample preparation depending on the material being studied are considered.

During the practical part of the seminar, participants using Biotyper software identified microorganisms of the genus Enterobacter and got acquainted with the rules of maintenance of the device.

The workshop material aroused lively discussion and was noted.
