Since some months back there is an instrument for MALDI-TOF MS (Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption – Time Of Flight Mass Spectrometry) available for analyses at VHC (Centre for Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science), SLU (Swedish University of Agricultural Science. The instrument is placed at the BVF (Department of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health) and it is ready to be used in research projects, routine diagnostics and teaching. MALDI-TOF kan for instance be used for identification of bacteria, mold and fungi.
