■Title
Mass spectrometry for the manufacturing products
■Organizer
Masaki Sato (Kyocera Corp.) / Kei Ishitsuka (AGC Inc.)
■Scope
Due to the raising of emerging countries, it is long since the fall of competitiveness of manufacturing in Japan. Under such circumstances, the mission of those involved in analysis will be to promptly deliver better evaluation technology and more reliable analysis data to the site of manufacturing and R&D, contributing to new product development and quality control. For the most effective process, it is necessary to promote the development of evaluation technology for manufacturing, together with domestic supply chains (to setup from materials), contract analysis manufacturers, equipment manufacturers and academia. Particularly in mass spectrometry, it is expected that it will be one of the indispensable technologies for material analysis from the viewpoint of detection sensitivity and high versatility. In this session, we will present the topics from a wide range of fields such as preparation (separation / purification), ionization, high resolution MS, imaging and data analysis, etc. targeted to industrial product related materials like polymers, additives and mixtures. We would like to share solutions and issues, and make the session a place to promote "co-creation" of material analysis technology, discussing the idea of future analytical methods each position.

Captivating topics from drug development: Analysis of new modality compounds and biomarkers by mass spectrometry
■Organizer
Yoshihisa Sano (Sunplanet Co., Ltd.) / Nana Kawasaki (Yokohama City Univ.)
■Keynote
Ryoya Goda (Daiichi Sankyo Co., Ltd.)
■Scope
Development of new drugs is getting harder and the targets of the drug candidates are moving on to so-called new modalities, e.g. high molecules including antibodies, natural products, nucleic acids, peptides, and sort of hybrid molecules from conventional low molecule compounds. Alongside of this transformation, LC-MS/MS as a representative of mass spectrometry has been drastically developed and improved to detect these new molecules, even there have been certain traditional analysis methods such as ligand binding assays. Now a large number of results have been reported with satisfactory sensitivity and reproducibility utilizing LC-MS/MS. In this session, we would like to share these implementation examples from pharmaceutical industries, CROs, and academia, and discuss some future perspectives on this crucial topic.

■Title
Mass spectrometry for on-site environmental analysis
■Organizer
Yuko Omori (Univ. Tsukuba) / Teruyuki Maruoka (Univ. Tsukuba)
■Keynote
Hiroshi Tanimoto (National Inst. Environm. Studies)
■Scope
Samples must be transported from sampling sites when laboratory-installed mass spectrometers are used, but field-portable mass spectrometers enable us to analyze various target samples “on-site”. With time from sampling, the physical parameters of a material, such as temperature, pressure, or redox state, may change, which may alter its chemical states, such as molecular compositions and chemical species. Therefore, analytical results obtained in laboratories may not always reflect the chemical states of a material at its sampling site. On-site analysis is the only means to avoid such discrepancies, especially when the target material includes a liquid or vapor because their chemical states can easily alter after sampling. In this session, we will discuss on-site mass spectrometry techniques to advance research in the earth, space, and environmental sciences.

■Keynote
Akira Tani (Univ. Shizuoka)
■Scope
Interest in real-time mass spectrometry is increasing in a wide variety of fields dealing with volatile compounds, such as atmospheric environmental chemistry and food and flavor sciences. Direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) and proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) have become well-established analytical techniques for real-time measurements of volatile compounds in ambient air. However, it is still difficult to comprehensively and accurately identify and quantify a large number of compounds whose concentrations can change in seconds. In this session, we call for the presentations regarding state-of-the-art real-time mass spectrometry techniques that enable accurate and comprehensive quantitation, identification, and isomer discrimination of volatile compounds. The sharing of valuable application experiences and new ideas is also welcome.

■Keynote
Akitoshi Okino (Tokyo Tech.)
■Scope
For the most creatures and plants, metal elements play important roles to regulate the physiological functions. Other major- to minor-essential metal elements, such as K, Na, Mg, and Ca are the essential nutrients for regulating the osmotic pressure, neurotransmission or muscle contractions. Moreover, trace-metal elements, such as Fe, Cu, Zn, or Mo are responsible for the activation and functionalization of metalloproteins or metalloenzymes as a cofactor. Incorporation of Zn stabilizes the tertiary structure of Zn finger, which is relevant to the DNA replication and transcription. Zinc is also known to activate more than 300 kinds of enzymes and proteins. Another important application of the metallomics study is evaluation of the toxicity and distribution of toxic elements, such as Hg, As, Cd, and Pb, which would present in the creatures at ultratrace levels (< ~μg g−1). Metallomics is a scientific research field in symbiosis with genomics and proteomics, because biosyntheses and biological functions of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) and proteins cannot be carried out without the aid of various metal ions and metalloenzymes. In the metallomics study, to take a full advantage of the metal ions or meta-binding biomolecules, analytical technique with sensitive, fast, and user-friendly mass spectrometry techniques, including an ICP-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) are highly desired. In this session, we would like to discuss the current situation of the metallomics studies using the mass spectrometry, and also to share the potential clue to promote the metallomics studies.

Application of imaging mass spectrometry in drug development
- Standardization of technology towards application studies -
■Organizer
Shuichi Shimma (Osaka University) / Yukari Tanaka (Shionogi Co., Ltd.)
■Scope
Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) has a potential analytical technique in drug development especially, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) and toxicological studies. Recently, CROs (domestic/global) have also introduced IMS services, therefore outsourcing analysis is available. We consider the number of potential IMS users will be increased in the future. This situation suggests that standardization of sample preparation, quantitation and other techniques related with IMS is one of the important issues. In this session, we offer the valuable opportunities to discuss fundamental to advanced techniques and applications of IMS focused on pharmaceutical analysis.

■Keynote
Takatoshi Kuno (Shonan Health Innovation Park)
■Scope
Mass Spectrometry is essential technology for current drug discovery research. However, it has been being more difficult to apply them for the field of ‘REAL’ drug discovery due to their technology advanced, specified and high expertise. We believe that technology sharing and co-development of instruments which can overcome challenges for various research fields (HTS, pharmacokinetics, safety, efficacy, etc.) among several pharmaceutical companies will be needed in the future in order to transform recent advances in mass spectrometry into our innovation. The main purpose of this workshop is to develop better understanding between drug discovery and mass spectrometry as a first step. In this workshop researchers from the pharmaceutical industry will offer a presentation not only about their analytical methods, but also about the challenges they are facing in their drug discovery field. We hope that this workshop can give participants the opportunity to envision what we can do with mass spec for drug discovery.

New dimension of protein research driven by mass spectrometry
■Organizer
Tadayuki Ogawa (Univ.Tokyo) / Tomoya Kinumi (AIST)
■Scope
A variety of protein structures provide their specific function, which forms the basis of biological systems. Therefore, accurate and precise analyses of protein structure and function will deepen our knowledge in the fundamental behavior of the molecules in biological systems and pathogenesis. Mass spectrometry (MS) has been a strong tool for protein analyses of primary structure and post-translational modifications. Recently, high-resolution MS and ion mobility MS enabled further protein analyses to investigate supramolecular complex, protein conformation, and its application for the medical use. From this perspective, this session focuses on the MS-driven protein analyses in various fields, from the basic research to the medical application, and discuss about the seamless fusion of multiple analyses.

■Title
Fundamental and practical aspects of LC/MS; Characteristics of ion detection systems
■Organizers
Masayuki Kubota (Thermo Fisher Scientific K. K.) / Yoshihiko Takinami (Bruker Japan K. K.)
■Scope
MSSJ Corporate Program Working Group (MSSJ CPWG) is organizing a consortium of instrument manufacturers. One of the objectives of this effort is to bridge the society and a wide range of MS users and encourage people to attend the annual conferences and join the society. To pursue this end, CPWG plans to hold serial workshops that would be attended by many ordinary MS users to share common problems and exchange information. In the past three workshops, we focused on “matrix effect”, “mass separation mechanism and MS/MS analysis” and “ion transfer systems”. In this year's workshop, we focus on ion detection systems. There are some typical ion detection systems and they combined with optimum ion separation techniques each other. These combinations are characteristics of instrument, and it is why it selects a device according to the application. On this session, each presenter will explain about the typical ion detection systems with their characteristics. Also, we are planning a panel discussion for a deeper understanding.
