Michelle and her team are responsible for identifying high-demand assays and developing appropriate LC-MS solutions for use in toxicology.
Have you ever wondered what’s required to design, build, and support an LC-MS system? Meet Mark, who works on our Systems Evaluation team.
Determining whether the cyanobacteria present in a water body are producing toxins requires laboratory testing. However, detection of microcystins is a challenging problem for water testing laboratories.
Chromatographers sometimes find themselves challenged as they move from analytical to preparative scales. To help gain a higher-level of understanding and knowledge of purification, check out our primer.
As the interest in peptides as potential drug candidates increases, the need for basic information about the isolation and purification of these peptides also grows.
In recent years, many laboratories have begun to include Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) as part of their purification strategies. Learn the basics of SFC in our primer.
“One of the important reasons that we use Waters LC-MS instruments is that beyond the quality of the products, Waters delivers a high degree of technical training. This provides us with the knowledge and confidence that we can solve our complex research questions.” comments Triskelion’s Richard Bas.
How to design an analytical workflow to screen for extractables and leachables The safety of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and foodstuffs may be compromised by chemical compounds in the various types of packaging and food contact materials (FCMs) that are in direct contact with the consumer product. Due to continuously increasing global regulations, the characterization of extractables…
It’s no surprise that pharma is ‘Thinking Large’ Large molecules are dominating pharma sales and FDA approvals. At the end of 2015, seven of the top 10 best-selling prescription drugs were large molecules. According to a 2014 article in Nature, the overall approval rate for small and large molecule therapeutics is nearly 10% (comprised of lead and secondary…
Recently, Ade Kujore (Cecil Instruments), Tracie Brombos (GenTech Scientific), and I were asked by Angelo De Palma, a well-respected writer for Lab Manager magazine, to contribute to an article about maintaining and caring for your laboratory instruments. Here are my tips and best practices for column and HPLC, UHLPC, and UPLC system maintenance. Maintaining your…
Bridging the gap between HPLC and UPLC performance, the ACQUITY Arc System is a favorite of QC laboratories that test small and large molecule pharmaceuticals. We’re excited to announce today (Tuesday, Oct. 5) that our ACQUITY® Arc™ System has just received a 2016 New Product Innovation Award from market research and growth consulting firm Frost…
Like the black panther, are analytical scientists going extinct? In a presidential election year, we are reminded of the many tough choices we face—Democrats or Republicans, plastic or paper, ketchup or mustard, soccer or football. And as we watched the Olympic track and field events, for instance, we saw the margin between first and last…
