Mass Spectrometry-based Intracellular Drug Measurements (FRQNT)

We are developing a multi-modal analytical approach that combined live-cell atomic force microscopy(AFM) and single-cell mass spectrometry (MS) to evaluate intracellular drug levels.

With this multi-modal approach, we will investigate the cellular uptake of pharmaceutical compounds and examine the biochemical effects at therapeutic and toxic levels.
