Funded Activity Summary

I can see clearly now: An Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry Imaging facility . Biology is complex- one plant or animal species can contain thousands of unique molecules. To harness the power of these biological molecules for food, fibre and medicine, we need to know precisely when and where they are produced. This proposal brings this capability to Tasmania and our national and global research network. Ion mobility mass spectrometry uses three dimensions to separate and identify unique molecules and this is now coupled to advanced imaging enabling us to visualise these molecules directly in intact tissues of plants and animals. This infrastructure will help us discover and use biological molecules to address the Australian Government priority areas of Food, Soil, Water and Environmental Change.
