Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for extracting one or more imaging markers of a THz-TDS scan. An embodiment of a method includes obtaining an image of a sample using pulsed terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and determining the one or more imaging markers using a maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) estimation applied to the obtained image. The one or more imaging markers may be a refractive index and an absorption coefficient. An embodiment of a system includes a THz-TDS apparatus having a processor configured to perform a method of the present disclosure—for example, to determine the one or more imaging markers using a maximum a posteriori probability estimation.

Abstract: Analytical reagents and mass spectrometry-based methods using these reagents for the rapid, and quantitative analysis of proteins or protein function in mixtures of proteins. The methods employ affinity labeled protein reactive reagents having three portions: an affinity label (A) covalently linked to a protein reactive group (PRG) through a linker group (L). The linker may be differentially isotopically labeled, e.g., by substitution of one or more atoms in the linker with a stable isotope thereof. These reagents allow for the selective isolation of peptide fragments or the products of reaction with a given protein (e.g., products of enzymatic reaction) from complex mixtures. The isolated peptide fragments or reaction products are characteristic of the presence of a protein or the presence of a protein function in those mixtures. Isolated peptides or reaction products are characterized by mass spectrometric (MS) techniques.
