#TeamMassSpec anyone with an Evosep ENO willing to chat with me offline about their experiences?

They have mass in the name! That must mean weapon of mass destruction! I think the early 2000's called.

The Internet is just a series of tubes, right? Why would they want to regulate when they are getting rich. Every bubble the wealthy and politicians get wealthier while everyone else hurts.

Not only that, but I make sure to say anything negative outside the lab in hopes it won't hear. They have personalities!

#TeamMassSpec curiosity question, especially for those doing small cell number single pot digestions. Are you still using DDM in your early lysis buffer and if so do you normalize the % or a set amount? Also, has anyone tried just prepping a plate by coating w/ DDM then not having it elsewhere?

Learning to noodle vibe code may go faster for rapid prototyping, but not nearly fast enough for a lab who wants you to throw a ball...

#TeamMassSpec #ASMS2026 mini game I am amused by-how many people can I count checking on/running their mass specs remotely during the conference? So far I'm at 6. ;)

#ASMS2026 back in San Diego...how has it been so many years? Feels like yesterday we were here. Time for neat science though, that always stays the same

At home I have a little silicone grippy for pickle jars and similar. It's too big for this, but I'm thinking we need a smaller version in the lab.

It's several times I have seen/heard it seems like it gets tightened really hard at installation especially, and then trying to take it off for cleaning is difficult. If you wait for it to cool it can be harder, but taking it off hot is ouchies. And yes, CS2 isn't perfect but far better than CS1

#TeamMassSpec before I go down the design rabbit hole, has anyone made a tool to help get off a too-tight ITI on the Bruker CS2 source? Preferably without burning one's hands?

Linking images/spatial has really exploded in the past about 10 years. That is an area that the new advances in computational registering have made so much better and easier.

Ok I was reading about this and...it's that easy? Things stay in place that well? And it could be paired with mass spec imaging? What's the catch...there has to be a catch.

I love that on BlueSky I can usually tell if I know a person, but it is also funny too find commonalities with complete strangers via reddit. Anonymity acting as a unifying force? Maybe?
