This is an interesting one.
What if it wasn't the most efficient to have proteomics mass spec instruments EVERYWHERE?
Rather, what if mass spectrometry proteomics was, instead, a fully centralized system where each sample could be measured comprehensively on multi-capacity hardware without all the compromises that come with solo 150kg - 400 kg vacuum chambers?
In the simulations presented here it seems to make a lot of sense!
The author makes the argument for splitting the ion beam from a single sample and routing it through to multiple mass analyzers simultaneously. Considering this from the company that can route ions around a lab with lenses that resember a garden hose. This is not an endorsement, but you might not know that the Spion is a thing, and it's crazy. https://www.tracematters.com/technology
