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…

7️⃣ While clearly powerful for human remains, the method needs more work for reliable cattle sexing, highlighting taxonomic differences in amelogenin preservation/detection that our field needs to address. #zooarchaeology

🧵 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....
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.....

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....
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.

Bluesky @bsky.app · Dec 3
Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
altmetric.com
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.
