Friday, 20 November 201508:00 | Free Workshop Mass Spectrometry for Clinical Analysis Nigel Brown, Consultant Clinical Scientist | 10:00 | Coffee Break | | Session 1: Investigation of Drugs & Drug Abuse using MS |
| | 10:30 | | Keynote Presentation Role of Mass Spectrometry in Drug of Abuse Analysis: Human to Equine Dope Testing Alka Beotra, Scientific Director & PT Coordinator, National Dope Testing Laboratory, India
The presentation would cover the development in the mass spectrometry use since the beginning of sports testing (1967) following separation by either gas or liquid chromatography. It will also discuss about the identification of various prohibited drugs with the use of mass spectrometry coupled with LC or GC. Further, it will mention about the application of isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS) detector coupled with GC in dope testing. |

| | Session 2: Clinical Mass Spectrometry |
| | 12:00 | Investigation of the Mechanism of Binding of Anticancer Drugs to DNA using ESI-MS David Harman, Lecturer and Mass Spectrometry Facility Manager , University of Western Sydney, Australia
This presentation will provide insights into the binding
mechanism of organometallic platinum based drugs within cancer cell DNA. It
will also discuss the measurement of degree of binding by ESI-QToF-MS that
helps in further designing of the next generation of anticancer therapeutics. | 12:50 | Development of an Assay for Plasma Ribavirin using HILIC-MS/MS Nigel Brown, Consultant Clinical Scientist, Wansbeck General Hospital, United Kingdom
