Bead Assisted Mass Spectrometry (BAMS™) is an assay platform that combines immuno-affinity capture on magnetic beads with high-throughput, label-free detection by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for multiplexed, targeted proteomic assays. Almost any protein target is accessible as long as a specific affinity reagent (i.e., antibody) for it is available.
This presentation will focus on the detailed description of the workflow and examples of BAMS™ assays developed for targets relevant to neurology, epigenetics, and food allergen testing.
