Determination of Isoflavones in Dietary Supplements: A Comparison of Mass Detection with UV Detection

25 Nov 2017

This study demonstrates that in the analysis of complex samples, such as plant extracts, the use of mass detection greatly reduces the interferences from co-eluting compounds. Also, time-consuming troubleshooting for out of specification results are reduced, which will in turn improve overall lab productivity and analytical data quality.

ACQUITY QDa Mass Detector
Waters
The ACQUITY QDa® Mass Detector gives you certainty above all else. You can minimize the risk of unexpected coelutions or components and confirms trace components with the analytical confidence of mass detection. The ACQUITY QDa® Detector is a mass detector built around the needs of analytical scientists for chromatographic analysis. Robust, reliable and requiring no sample adjustments, it just integrates with your current LC, ACQUITY UPLC, ACQUITY UPC2 and purification systems. You'll enhance the analytical value and productivity of each analysis, and you won't need to run all the additional assays or time-consuming alternative techniques or even wait for results from specialist labs that cost your laboratory productivity. With the ACQUITY QDa® Detector, you now have information-rich mass spectral data to complement data from your current Waters® optical detectors, including the ACQUITY UPLC PDA, TUV, ELS, and FLR detectors, as well as the ACQUITY UPC² PDA Detector. This mass spectral information integrates seamlessly into the same workflow; routinely giving you more complete separation characterization. Features: Intuitive operation More information from every sample Effortless integration Increased efficiency Resolving complexity Applications: Food & Environment Life Sciences and Pharmaceuticals Chemical
