You’ve bought your mass spectrometer. You’ve installed all your hardware. You’ve got your operating software set up. You’ve mastered your software workflow modules to optimize quantitative and qualitative data processing. That’s it, right?
Even though your system is running smoothly, you’ll need to stay current with new software features to make your job easier, expand your system’s capabilities, and grow your lab´s productivity. The best way to do this is with a Software Support Contract.
A support plan gives you access to new releases and bug fixes for either your instrument software that is provided with the instrument, or non-instrument software (application vertical software), or both.
We publish software updates several times a year as new features and capabilities become available. Recently, new versions of SCIEX OS Software were released. Application vertical software can also be affected by hardware and third-party software updates. Remaining current with all of your software will help minimize potential instrument downtime.
Our software support contracts portfolio comes with a variety of features and benefits matching your unique needs and requirements.
Although we all expect the solutions we buy and install to work easily and consistently, technology – especially complex systems made up of lots of components sitting on a network – may require vendor support to get up and running. There are also times when you may just need some advice on how best to approach a hardware change, software update or day-to-day user questions. Having a support agreement already in place can save you time, money, and hassle.
Compare the ease of picking up the phone to connect to a friendly support technician, with no need to consider cost or process, with the alternative:
SCIEX Software Support Plans also let you jump the queue to get priority support before users who don’t have one. And, they’re renewed on an annual basis, so your coverage never needs to lapse.

Ultra‑low reporting limits, expanding target lists, and the constant risk of background contamination mean that even small missteps before injection can compromise data integrity. PFAS can be introduced at nearly every stage of prep, from sampling containers and PPE to SPE cartridges, filters, solvents, and lab consumables, making contamination control as critical as analyte recovery.
In monoclonal antibody (mAb) development, assessment of purity and integrity of the protein in question is critical. CE‑SDS is the gold standard assay and is routinely run from analytical development through QC and lot release. It’s trusted because it consistently delivers quantitative, size‑based insight into purity and fragmentation, and it fits naturally into regulated environments.
In drug discovery and development, Metabolite Identification (Met ID) plays a critical role in understanding biotransformation pathways, ensuring safety, and meeting regulatory requirements. Advanced mass spectrometry techniques have revolutionized this process, particularly through electron-based fragmentation methods such as Electron Activated Dissociation (EAD) and Electron Transfer Dissociation (ETD). While both techniques leverage electron interactions to generate informative fragment ions, they differ significantly in mechanism, performance, and suitability for Met ID workflows.
