A critical component of drug safety is testing for extractable and leachable (E&L) impurities that may be introduced during production or from the packaging. As single-use bioprocess systems and disposable pre-filled syringes have become more prevalent, demand for rapid, confident E&L testing has increased.
Learn about the latest technologies – such as accelerated solvent extraction, Orbitrap-based LC-MS and GC-MS, and ICP-MS – for isolation, identification, and quantitation of elemental and organic impurities and follow real-life bioprocess extractable and simulated leachable studies.
RegisterNo LC detection technique is completely universal but Charged Aerosol Detection (CAD) comes close. UV is widely used but is blind to compounds without a chromophore while response with mass spectrometry depends on analyte structure and method parameters. Refractive index, ELSD, and CNLSD do not combine application versatility with reliability.
Learn how CAD helps you see what other technologies do not; delivers the most uniform response, independent of chemical structure; and uses unique inverse gradient technology, which provides an accurate means of estimating analyte quantity when individual standards are not available.
RegisterCalling all ion and liquid chromatographers! Discover how mass spectrometry could help you gain greater insights into your samples through mass-to-charge (m/z) confirmation for separated compounds and lower limits of detection in comparison to conductivity detection. While some perceive mass spectrometry to be difficult, a suite of easy-to-use hardware and software features on our new single quadrupole mass spectrometer makes MS approachable for chromatographers.

Reveal actionable information and unique insights on your laboratory processes through data integration. By connecting the pieces of disparate information generated by laboratory instruments and systems, you can transform data into the knowledge you need to identify opportunities for improvement.
Join us to gain an understanding of modern methods to collect, manage, analyze, share, and protect your data. Plus, discover how to achieve full data integrity with Integrated Informatics Solutions including LIMS, CDS and SDMS.
RegisterPhysical, chemical and spectral interferences are common in both routine and research laboratories, sometimes leading to flawed results. Learn how to identify and correct for potential interference effects while pushing the boundaries for elemental measurements at ultra-trace levels. Applications ranging from semiconductor materials to foodstuffs to environmental waters can benefit from advanced interference removal capabilities.
RegisterColumn selection can be a mystery for analysts starting their journey from sample to knowledge. Short of trying every column in the cupboard, we present simple strategies to determine which column phase, dimensions and particle size provide the best opportunity to optimize your separation. We will also cover topics such as mobile phase and additive selection which are equally important for good chromatography.

Samples are getting more complex. You are being asked to identify and measure more components, even ones you never analyzed before. Workflows now require both qualitative and quantitative platforms.
Discover how HRAM Orbitrap mass spectrometry can perform screening and quantitation in a single assay for virtually any molecule across all applications and how triple quadrupole MS can quantify hundreds of samples with ultimate sensitivity, selectivity and speed. It’s a versatile approach that can increase confidence in results and enable you to solve analytical challenges faster.
RegisterDo you know which GC-MS technique is the most practical for your laboratory? Discover the advantages and limitations of single, triple and high resolution accurate mass MS so you can determine which technique best fits your analytical requirements. Also, see how optimal technique selection and maximum instrument performance both enhance the user experience so that the daily challenges of routine and research GC-MS workflows can be addressed with confidence.

There are many variables to consider when designing laboratory workflows, including software optimization. By maximizing Thermo Scientific™ Chromeleon™ CDS software to its fullest, we’ve been able to save time and effort while also gaining control of data, reducing error, improving metric collection, and reducing overall costs. Integrating the functionality and flexibility of Chromeleon has also helped ensure sample data is properly handled from submission to reporting, increasing data integrity.
