Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are where so much of biology’s complexity lives, but they are also some of the hardest molecular features to analyze with confidence. Phosphorylation, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), and O-GlcNAcylation (O-GlcNAc) often occur at low abundance, can be highly labile, and frequently require precise site localization to understand their biological meaning.

For phosphorylation analysis, the platform identified 5,892 unique phosphosites from IMAC-enriched samples and 2,941 unique phosphotyrosine sites after phosphotyrosine enrichment, highlighting strong performance for both broad and highly targeted signaling studies. Just as importantly, the data show that HCD and EThcD provide complementary value, with each fragmentation method contributing unique site identifications and helping resolve ambiguous assignments.The note also highlights the value of EThcD for more analytically demanding PTMs. In ADMA-enriched samples, EThcD delivered more ADMA peptide-spectrum matches and more unique modified peptides than HCD, supporting improved confidence in site characterization. For O-glycopeptides, the Orbitrap Excedion Pro MS uses an intelligent HCD-product-dependent-EThcD strategy that triggers EThcD only when oxonium ions are detected, improving productivity while preserving the fragmentation detail needed for confident glycosite localization.Overall, this technical note shows how Orbitrap Excedion Pro MS enables researchers to go deeper into PTM biology with greater sensitivity, better site confidence, and smarter acquisition. For scientists studying signaling, regulation, and disease mechanisms, it presents a powerful approach for expanding PTM coverage without compromising analytical rigor.<blockquote><h5><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://lcms.labrulez.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/tn_004377_ov_phosphorylation_ptm_etd_excedion_pro_tn004377_na_en_71f681655f.pdf">Download the technical note "Advancing phosphorylation, ADMA, and O-GlcNAc PTM analysis with HCD and EThcD on the Orbitrap Excedion Pro mass spectrometer"</a></h5></blockquote>Visit us on&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/72003132/admin/dashboard/">LinkedIn:</a>&nbsp;#PTM #OrbitrapExcedionPro #glycosylation #phosphorylation

The countdown is almost over. In just one week, the international chromatography community will meet in Prague for the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/events/644">35th International Symposium on Chromatography (ISC 2026)</a>, taking place from September 6–10, 2026. Whether your registration has been confirmed for months or you are still deciding whether to join, now is the time to finalize your plans. Here is what you need to know before ISC 2026 begins.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/companies/314">ISC</a> is the oldest conference series dedicated to separation science, with symposia organized since 1956. This September, the Prague Congress Centre will welcome researchers, industry experts, instrument manufacturers, young scientists, and other specialists for five days of chromatography and separation science, covering everything from fundamental research to pharmaceutical, environmental, food, health, and omics applications.But before the scientific sessions begin, there are a few practical details worth checking.<h4>ISC officially starts on September 6 – but activities begin a day earlier</h4>The official dates for ISC 2026 are Sunday, September 6 through Thursday, September 10, but for some participants the conference starts already on Saturday, September 5.The first Short Courses are scheduled for Saturday (<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/6770">SC 1 – Modern HPLC Separation in Theory and Practice</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7312">SC 2 – mzmine for LC-MS data analysis</a>), with additional courses continuing on Sunday morning and afternoon. If you have registered for a Short Course, make sure to check its exact date and starting time before arranging your journey to Prague.Sunday then marks the official opening of ISC 2026, with the Opening Ceremony, Award Ceremony, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7361">plenary lectures</a>, and Welcome Reception introducing delegates to the week ahead.<h4>Haven’t registered yet? You can still join ISC 2026</h4>Missed the late-registration deadline? It is still possible to attend.Onsite registration has been available since August 26, 2026, giving last-minute participants another opportunity to join the symposium. Current onsite registration fees are:<ul><li>Industry: €1,150</li><li>Academic: €890</li><li>Student: €390</li><li>Short Courses: €270</li></ul>The Short Course fee covers participation in up to three Short Courses.One practical point for last-minute registration: bank-transfer payments closed on August 19, so only card payments are now accepted.Full registration includes access to oral and poster sessions, the exhibition, the Sunday Welcome Reception, scheduled lunches and coffee breaks, the electronic Book of Abstracts, and a Prague public transportation pass.<h4>Where is ISC 2026 and how do you get there?</h4>ISC 2026 will take place at the:Prague Congress Centre<ul><li>5. května 65</li><li>140 21 Prague 4</li><li>Czech Republic</li></ul>The venue is particularly easy to reach by public transport. It is located directly on Prague’s Metro Line C at Vyšehrad station, just around five minutes by metro from Muzeum station in the city centre.The Prague Congress Centre brings the lecture halls, exhibition spaces, meeting rooms, and other conference facilities together in one venue, making it easy to move between scientific sessions, posters, industry activities, and the exhibition throughout the day.And since full conference registration includes public transportation in Prague, getting around the city during ISC should be straightforward.<h4>When can you pick up your conference materials?</h4>The registration desk will already be open during the Short Courses and will remain available throughout the symposium.Registration opening hours:<ul><li>Saturday, September 5: 8:30–17:00</li><li>Sunday, September 6: 7:30–19:00</li><li>Monday, September 7: 7:30–18:00</li><li>Tuesday, September 8: 7:30–19:00</li><li>Wednesday, September 9: 8:00–18:00</li><li>Thursday, September 10: 8:30–14:30</li></ul>If you are arriving in Prague on Sunday, allowing some extra time for registration before the Opening Ceremony will make the start of the conference considerably more relaxed.<h4>Now is the time to build your personal ISC program</h4>With several parallel sessions running throughout the week, trying to decide where to go only after arriving at the venue may mean missing something important.The <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7477">main scientific program</a> is organized around three broad areas:<ul><li>Fundamentals</li><li>Bioanalysis and omics applications</li><li>Hyphenated techniques</li></ul>These are complemented by <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7280">Tutorials </a>+ Young Speakers, plenary and invited lectures, poster sessions, the international exhibition, vendor seminars, and industry-focused activities.Before leaving for Prague, take another look at the Interactive Program and mark the lectures, posters, and other activities that are most relevant to you. If you are presenting your own work, this is also the right time to double-check your assigned session, room, and presentation time.And don’t focus only on the oral program. Poster sessions and exhibition breaks are among the best opportunities to discuss new research directly with authors, meet instrument and technology specialists, and make new contacts.<h4>Don’t overlook the vendor seminars and industry program</h4>ISC 2026 is not limited to academic presentations. The conference also includes an extensive industry component, with activities covering current challenges in separation science and practical applications of new analytical technologies.During the lunchtime sessions, participants can attend <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7736">vendor seminars</a> presented by companies including Avantor, Shimadzu, Advanced Materials Technology, Restek, and Thermo Fisher Scientific. Topics range from stationary-phase selectivity and chromatographic modelling to HPLC and LC-MS column technologies and advanced characterization of biotherapeutics.The conference also includes dedicated <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7777">Industry Activities</a> from Monday through Wednesday, bringing together academic and industrial perspectives on topics relevant to analytical laboratories and the future of separation science. One of the discussions, for example, will examine how education in separation science can better reflect the skills required by modern industry, while another will focus on sustainability and the practical implementation of greener analytical workflows.On Wednesday, participants can also join the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://labrulez.com/en-us/all/article/7801">Publishing Workshop</a>, another activity worth adding to the schedule if scientific publishing is part of your work.<h4>Test your chromatography knowledge at the ISC Quiz</h4>Not every session needs to be completely serious.On Tuesday, September 8 from 18:30 to 19:30, ISC will host an interactive Chromatography Quiz, combining practical questions, chromatography fundamentals, unusual facts, and lighter challenges.There is no advance registration required. Any registered conference participant can join, but remember to bring a smartphone—the quiz uses live participation through a QR code.Results will be scored in real time, and prizes will be awarded to the top three participants.<h4>Start networking from the first evening</h4>The scientific program may be the main reason to attend ISC, but the conversations between sessions can be equally valuable.The first major networking opportunity comes immediately on Sunday.The Welcome Reception will take place on September 6 from 18:30 to 20:00 in the second-floor foyer of the Prague Congress Centre. It is open to registered participants and accompanying persons and includes a light buffet and drinks.As it takes place immediately after the opening program, it is an ideal opportunity to reconnect with colleagues, meet new contacts, and start conversations before the full parallel scientific program begins on Monday.Another social highlight will be the Gala Dinner on Wednesday, September 9 from 19:00 to midnight at the National House Vinohrady.The Gala Dinner requires a separate €100 ticket, is not included in the standard registration fee, and has a smart-casual dress code. Participants should also note that transportation to and from the venue is not organized by the conference.<h4>And perhaps leave a little time for Prague</h4>A conference schedule can fill up quickly, but ISC 2026 is taking place in one of Europe’s most walkable cities.If you find some free time between sessions, Vyšehrad is only about a 10-minute walk from the Prague Congress Centre and offers panoramic views across Prague and the Vltava River. It is an easy option for a short walk without travelling back into the historic city centre.See you at ISC 2026 in Prague!

The sample solution is pumped into the cell where the determined species (analyte) is measured through its electrochemical conversion, i.e. it is electrochemically oxidised or reduced at the electrode surface. Low concentrations are determined after a preliminary electrochemical deposition of the measured species at the electrode surface (enrichment step), then the deposit is stripped by constant current while the signal is recorded and evaluated. In such a way, concentrations in the sub- μg/L level can be easily measured.

ISTRAN EcaLayer Metal Layer Analyser

The coulometric method ensures accurate and precise results. The analyser is extremely simple to use and therefore it is also suitable for routine measurements not needing any special qualification.

The coulometric technique is used for measuring the thickness of electroplated deposits on a wide variety of substrates such as steel, aluminium, copper, nickel, silver, alloys, some insulators.The coulometric method ensures accurate and precise results. The analyser is extremely simple to use and therefore it is also suitable for routine measurements not needing any special qualification. Moreover, coulometry is the only method allowing the measurement of multi-layer coatings such as chrome, chrome oxide on tin, tin, tin-iron intermetals on steel, etc.<h3>Measuring principle</h3>The fundamental principle is the Faraday’s Law. The method is similar to the electrolytic plating process but here the coating is removed electrochemically from a defined surface area. For this purpose, a piece of the sample is placed to the flow-through measuring cell which is filled with a suitable electrolyte solution and the analysed metal coating is subsequently removed by applying an appropriate current. Hence, metal layers are measured by anodic dissolution, metal oxide layers, such as tin oxide on a tin coating, are measured by cathodic dissolution. The measured sample area is given by the gasket used and it can include 0.2 to 20 cm2. The analysis is performed totally automatically and is controlled by a PC.By applying the Faraday’s Laws, the thickness of a metal layer can be calculated.<h3>The EcaLayer Model 220/220a consists of three major parts:</h3><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:643/961;" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/ISTRAN_Eca_Layer_Metal_Layer_Analyser_4_ab4b7f6aff.jpg" alt="ISTRAN EcaLayer Metal Layer Analyser - Scheme" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_ISTRAN_Eca_Layer_Metal_Layer_Analyser_4_ab4b7f6aff.jpg 104w," sizes="100vw" width="643" height="961"></figure><h4>1. Analytical Unit</h4><h5>Two types of analytical units can be used:</h5><ul><li>Module A for metal coatings and metal oxide layer measurements needing the removal of dissolved oxygen, e.g. tin oxide measurements, and</li><li>Module B for measurements not needing oxygen removal, e.g. tin layer thickness measurements.</li></ul>Module A encloses a unique flow-through analytical cell with the sample as the working electrode, a stainless steel counter and Ag/AgCl reference electrodes, a peristaltic pump, an electromagnetic valve for the gas and a reservoir for the electrolyte solution.Module B is built in the same way but without the gas unit.<h4>2. Control Unit</h4>The control unit comprises a computer controlled potentiostat/galvanostat with a maximum output of 100 mA, 16-bit A/D and D/A converters. The unit is controlled by a microprocessor linked to the PC through a serial line.<h4>3. Computer and software</h4>Any IBM compatible PC can be coupled to the instrument. The user-friendly software facilitates the use without any special knowledge about electrochermistry. GLP facilities such as archiving, printing of reports, selftesting are included.<h3>Function</h3><h4>The metal layer analyser works as follows:</h4><ol><li>The sample is placed into the cell and the cell is closed. The next steps are performed automatically by computer control.</li><li>The cell is filled with the electrolyte from the reservoir. If needed, the electrolyte solution is with an inert gas to remove dissolved oxygen.</li><li>The coating is removed by applying a suitable constant current and the potential of the sample material (i.e. the working electrode) is monitored and registered in the time.</li><li>The electrolyte solution is removed from the cell.</li><li>In the meantime, the registered potential-time dependence is evaluated giving the dissolution time and the layer thickness is calculated automatically.</li><li>The cell is opened and the sample is removed. The whole procedure takes 4 to 8 minutes.</li></ol><h3>Some applications</h3><h5>Measurements of tin coatings on steel</h5>Tin coatings are measured by anodic dissolution in HCl electrolyte solution with currents up to 100 mA. Both the tin and the tin-iron intermetallic layers can be measured in a single run.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:621/342;" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/ISTRAN_Eca_Layer_Metal_Layer_Analyser_0d2f857bae.jpg" alt="ISTRAN EcaLayer Metal Layer Analyser: Measurements of tin coatings on steel" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_ISTRAN_Eca_Layer_Metal_Layer_Analyser_0d2f857bae.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="621" height="342"></figure><h5>Measurement of passivating chromous layers on tin coated steel</h5>The chromium layers are dissolved by anodic oxidation in a phosphate buffer electrolyte solution with currents of few mA.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:645/353;" src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/ISTRAN_Eca_Layer_Metal_Layer_Analyser_2_31bc2b54d5.jpg" alt="ISTRAN EcaLayer Metal Layer Analyser: Measurement of passivating chromous layers on tin coated steel" srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_ISTRAN_Eca_Layer_Metal_Layer_Analyser_2_31bc2b54d5.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="645" height="353"></figure><h5>Measurement of oxide layers on tin coatings</h5>Oxide layers can be determined by cathodic dissolution in deairated HBr electrolyte solution with currents about -1 mA.
