Charllotte Blacka

I’ve had a great time this week presenting (and touristing) in Copenhagen at the @icaz-news.bsky.social AGPM meeting. It was such a lovely conference with a great group of friendly people and lots of stimulating discussions!

Arrived in the beautiful Turin for the @isba11.bsky.social conference where I’m presenting a poster (and presented a talk at the @paastacommunity.bsky.social pre meeting yesterday) on my research on cattle proteomic amelogenin sex estimation

Thanks, really excited to share more data we’ve been getting in the future!

Thanks for sharing! Watch this space for some more cattle focused sexing data in the future…

Exciting new approach to sexing using proteomics.

Rapid Proteomic Amelogenin Sex Estimation of Human and Cattle Remains Using Untargeted Evosep‐timsTOF Mass Spectrometry Rationale Sex estimation by analysis of amelogenin peptides in archaeological and fossil material has recently been gaining great traction within the fields of archaeology and palaeontology. Current.....

🧵 Thread: 1️⃣ New paper by‪@jessiehendy.bsky.social‬ Blacka et al. presents breakthrough in rapid proteomic amelogenin sex estimation using Evosep-timsTOF MS. Slashes analysis time to under 20 mins per sample (including prep)! #palaeoproteomics #ZooMS doi.org/10.1002/rcm....

Summary of methodological and analytical variables applied to the three different sets of sample material discussed. Each coloured background represents differences in variables: in green, sampling; blue, acid etching approach; yellow, MS instrument; purple, timsTOF run length.

So pleased to see Charlotte Blacka's first 1st author paper: innovation was to use tims-TOF #MS for rapid sex estimation method based on amelogenin #palaeoproteomics. At <20min per sample (including prep all the way to data processing), this enables far higher sample numbers: doi.org/10.1002/rcm....

My first paper, detailing the Evosep-timsTOF proteomic amelogenin sexing method I've developed during my PhD, is now available online!
