There’s no doubt about it, biopharma drug development is experiencing phenomenal growth and presents a variety of challenges not experienced in small molecule development. Some of these challenges are in the selective and sensitive quantitation of peptides and proteins in complex matrices. These large molecule analytes can suffer from matrix interferences, poor fragmentation and lack of quality unique peptides, or transitions compared to background, all which can affect the quality of analysis.
Traditional mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assays continue to be highly effective for large molecule quantitation, but what if you need something more selective? What if you could easily ‘upgrade’ your already powerful mass spec? Thanks to advancements in mass spectrometry technology there is now an option that can be a game changer for peptide and protein quantitation workflows.
We are talking about the SelexION® Differential Mobility Separation (DMS) device. It offers a unique enhancement to your SCIEX mass spec, helping to remove sample interferences and separate isobaric peptide species, resulting in more sensitive and selective detection and quantitation of challenging large molecule targets.
Key Features of SelexION Technology for Peptide and Protein QuantitationUsing differential ion mobility spectroscopy (DMS) as an orthogonal dimension of separation prior to MS detection can provide many advantages:
Can provide enhanced specificity, selectivity, and sensitivity compared to LC-MS/MS alone

As therapeutic pipelines continue to diversify, bioanalysis is being asked to do more than ever before. From small molecules to complex biologics, today’s scientists must generate high‑quality, reliable data across a growing range of molecule types and workflows, often under increasing time pressure.
Regulated laboratories are evolving faster than ever. New analytical modalities, higher sample throughput, increasing regulatory scrutiny, and leaner teams are reshaping how work gets done. At the same time, expectations for data integrity, standardization, and operational efficiency continue to increase complexity and/or scope. In this environment, LC-MS software is no longer simply an instrument control platform—it has become a critical part of a laboratory’s quality management system. The question is no longer whether your lab has changed, but whether your software has evolved to support the way regulated labs operate today, and if they are ready and able to meet the demands, they will face tomorrow.
Analyst software has long been a trusted foundation in regulated LC-MS laboratories—and for many, it still performs reliably today. But regulated environments are evolving faster than ever. As labs transition to Windows 11, strengthen cybersecurity policies, modernize IT infrastructure, and prepare for future compliance expectations, software decisions are no longer just about what works today—they’re about managing tomorrow’s risk. Analyst will not be supported on Windows 11. While some labs may continue operating in unsupported environments temporarily, the bigger question is: when that risk becomes reality, will your lab be reacting under pressure—or executing a planned mitigation strategy with confidence?
