Product news

SpectralWorks Limited is offering a 15 day free trial of AspectAnalyzer the latest tool for combining GC-MS and FID data processing. This latest plug-in application to AnalyzerPro has been developed to be used where an FID detector has been added to a GC-MS or a UV detector to a LC-MS system. Purity analysis based on GC-FID and LC-UV data can be integrated into the MS acquisition for pharmaceutical analysis and synthetic chemistry. Quantitative data can be derived from the UV or FID data channel, including the use of internal standards and this is aligned with the qualitative information provided by the relevant MS analysis. Combined with the unique algorithm used in AnalyzerPro for the data mining of MS data, AspectAnalyzer is a powerful addition to integrated data processing.

Judith van den Berg from the Analysis Department at Cosun Food Technology Centre in the Netherlands uses AspectAnalyzer for the analysis of flavours. “With AspectAnalyzer, we are able to qualify and semi-quantify components with the MS and/or the FID signal. Before AspectAnalyzer, this was a huge job because of the complexity of flavours.

Data file formats from MS vendors, such as Agilent, ThermoFisher, Waters and Varian are supported as well as generic formats such a netCDF and a number of smaller and legacy data system formats. This allows the integration of a typical MS laboratory onto a single data processing platform.

UHPLC and HPLCHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), also known as UPLC, are analytical techniques used to separate, identify and quantitate components of complex mixtures including biological samples such as proteins and lipids as well as chemical mixtures of pesticides, drugs and oils. Both techniques are liquid chromatographic methods but differ by operating pressures (HPLC < 6000 psi < UHPLC ). Components of HPLC and UHPLC systems include columns, detectors, pumps, autosamplers and column heaters. Explore a range of UHPLC and HPLC columns for your specific sample needs including reverse phase, normal phase, ion exchange, HILIC, ion exclusion and size exclusion columns. For more specialized HPLC, explore FPLC, countercurrent LC and simulated moving bed systems. Find the best UHPLC and HPLC equipment in our peer reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis. Find the best LC-MS equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Biopharmaceutical AdvancesBiopharmaceutical advances follow the development of pharmaceuticals derived from biotechnology, also known as biotechnology medicines. Biopharmaceuticals may be produced from cell lines, plants, or microbial cells. Important considerations of biopharmaceutical use include application, cost, production process and purification.GC-MS GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) instruments and equipment are used to separate, quantify and identify mixtures of small and volatile compounds, such as polycyclic aromatics, fatty acids and alcohols. Often used in drug detection, forensic investigation and environmental analysis for pesticides and contaminants, GC-MS is a powerful addition to your lab’s analytical capabilities. GC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzers can give greater sensitivity and resolution to your analysis.
