About

Dr. Kanjana Wiangnon is a distinguished mass spectrometrist whose research centers on advancing matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for biological analysis. Her most significant contribution involves pioneering the use of glycerol-based liquid support matrices (LSMs) as alternatives to conventional solid MALDI matrices. This innovative approach, detailed in her highly cited 2016 paper "Liquid MALDI MS Analysis of Complex Peptide and Proteome Samples" (9 citations), dramatically enhances the analysis of complex peptide and proteome samples by improving reproducibility, reducing sample preparation time, and enabling real-time liquid-phase reactions. Dr. Wiangnon's work addresses critical limitations in traditional MALDI techniques, offering researchers a more versatile and efficient tool for proteomics. Her liquid matrix methodology has opened new avenues for high-throughput biological sample screening and has been recognized as a transformative step in mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Through her focused contributions, Dr. Wiangnon continues to shape how complex biological mixtures are analyzed, making her work essential reading for students and researchers in analytical chemistry and proteomics.
