FT-ICR-MS Project headed by Mark Barrow.
Dr. Mark Barrow's FT-ICR-MS project focuses on using ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry analysing complex mixtures like crude oil. The team developed the OCULAR method to maintain constant, high resolving power across a wide mass range. Allowing for detailed molecular fingerprinting of samples in fields like energy, environment, and materials science.
