Chouinard Lab

Analytical Chemistry group @Clemson_Chem focusing on novel ion mobility-mass spectrometry approaches for small molecule analysis (steroids, opioids, etc.)

Dr. Christopher Chouinard received a PCC Research Grant to establish a database to facilitate detection of anabolic androgenic steroids using mass spectrometry methods. He and his team developed a fast method that can detect 40 known prohibited steroids.

New publication alert! We use SLIM ion mobility to separate isomers from four different steroid subclasses, paving the way toward its routine use in the clinical lab. Great work team! #TeamMassSpec

It takes a lot to keep a mass spectrometer running, and these three know a thing or two about gas. They know to call @PeakScientific for their nitrogen generator needs. #ASMS2025

[Dr. Erin Baker @ErinBakerIMS]

Hey #TeamMassSpec,
Come join us for the #ASMS2025 Environmental Applications Workshop, Monday afternoon from 5:45-7:00 pm in Rm 349-350. We will have an amazing opening lecture from Susan Richardson, 4 wonderful student speakers, & a quiz (with prizes). See you there! @asmsnews

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

We're less than 5 months away from @Sermacs2025 with #SWRM! Abstract submission is now open, with more than 50 symposia. October is an amazing time to experience "Chemistry in the Sunshine" of Florida! Check out our website for more information: https://t.co/DjJv6P9dzG

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

Headed to Baltimore next week for #ASMS25? Don't miss our Wednesday evening workshop, "Overcoming Challenges in Modern Ion Mobility"! We have a lineup of great speakers, featuring @ErinBakerIMS, discussing how they tackle challenges in their analyses. See you there!

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

Less than a week until #ASMS2025! Lots of great work from our group this year, so make sure to stop by and see what ion mobility projects we've been up to over the last year! #TeamMassSpec

Proud PI moment! Yesterday, I was honored to hood Ralph @AderorhoR at the Clemson doctoral commencement! Phenomenal accomplishments during his time here, and this is only the beginning of his career! Congratulations, Ralph! We are all so proud of you!

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

Recent article from @AderorhoR in Drug Testing and Analysis was recognized as one of the top 10 most-cited papers published in 2023! #TopCitedArticle https://t.co/k3HQGjMW4b #TopCitedArticle @wileyinresearch

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

Starting to get excited!

[SERMACS/SWRM 2025 @Sermacs2025]

Our program is really shaping up! Over 50 technical symposia were submitted. Be on the lookout for the call for abstracts in April! In the meantime, check out our website for more details! SERMACS/SWRM - Chemistry In The Sunshine https://t.co/f9O7AHdJV3

Great training at the @AmerChemSociety Headquarters in DC! Took part as the Program Chair of the SE-SW ACS Meeting to be held in Orlando, this October! https://t.co/NvTQ7BhuGy Stay tuned for more announcements on symposia and exciting activities! #ACS #sermacs2025 #UCF #Chemistry

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

@LabLaskin Congratulations!

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

Very proud of our work! Ion mobility-mass spectrometry is a powerful technique with a huge future in detection of illicit substances including performance-enhancing drugs. We're excited to continue this work and contribute meaningfully to the protection of clean athletes.

[The PCC - Funding Anti-Doping Science @PCCantidoping]

In his PCC-funded research, @ChouinardLab developed a method to rapidly detect 40 prohibited steroids, & he created a database with known & theoretical steroids to help #antidoping labs detect novel steroids that could be used in the future.

Proud to announce successful installation of our
@MobilionSystems MOBIE, the first of its kind in the US! Specially tailored for low mass applications, we are excited to use it for drug and metabolite studies. Looking forward to the new opportunities this can open up for us!

[Chouinard Lab @ChouinardLab]

#proudPI moment here! @AderorhoR defended his dissertation this morning, my first PhD at @ClemsonUniv! What a list of accomplishments over the last four years, and he's already got a great job in biopharma @TesseraTx lined up. We will miss you Ralph!
