Imagine the productivity gains your lab could achieve with a technology that not only analyzes samples up to 50x faster than conventional quantitative LC-MS, but also eliminates tedious sample preparation, time-consuming LC method development and chromatographic run times.
Sound impossible? Not anymore.
Enter the new, exciting and very real Echo® MS System with:
Wait…no LC?
With its Acoustic Droplet Ejection (ADE) and Open Port Interface (OPI), the Echo MS System replaces conventional LC with game-changing technology that dramatically reduces the amount of time required for quantitative MS analysis. With no LC requirements, the Echo® MS System eliminates the need to spend time and effort developing separation methods. Troubleshooting LC problems and waiting for LC columns to wash, equilibrate and elute analytes disappear, all while delivering a speed of analysis that sets records for quantitative MS.
Imagine a 384 well plate finished in less than 7 minutes.1 With that kind of speed, entire discovery libraries containing millions of compounds can be quantitatively analyzed in a matter of days. Lead compounds are discovered faster, and project timelines can be radically accelerated.
Having this kind of speed means:
“Recently we heard comments from one of our collaborators. They are already starting to see the paradigm shift in their company. A lot of assays routinely run on the optical-based analytical instrument are now shifting to the mass-spec-based platform.”2Chang Liu, SCIEX R&D
With the Echo MS System, a fundamentally fast platform is combined with an effort-easing workflow that is more than the sum of its parts. With the capability to accelerate project turnaround times from months to weeks, days or even hours or minutes, the Echo MS System can dramatically improve your lab productivity.

Electron-Activated Dissociation (EAD) is transforming the fields of metabolomics and lipidomics by providing enhanced fragmentation techniques that offer deeper insights into molecular structures. In September, Technology Networks hosted a webinar, “Enhancing Mass-Based Omics Analysis in Model Organisms,” featuring Dr. Valentina Calabrese from the Institute of Analytical Sciences at the University of Lyon. Valentina shared her insights on improving omics-based mass spectrometry analysis for toxicology studies using model organisms, particularly in metabolomics and lipidomics. This blog explores the additional functionalities EAD offers, its benefits in untargeted workflows, its incorporation into GNPS and molecular networking, and the future role it could play in these scientific domains.
Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has gained significant attention in the clinical laboratory due to its ability to provide best-in-class sensitivity and specificity for the detection of clinically relevant analytes across a wide range of assays. For clinical laboratories new to LC-MS/MS, integrating this technology into their daily routine operations may seem like a daunting task. Developing a clear outline and defining the requirements needed to implement LC-MS/MS into your daily operations is critical to maximize the productivity and success of your clinical laboratory.
In today’s rapidly evolving food industry, the role of food testing laboratories has never been more critical. Ensuring the safety, quality, and authenticity of food products is paramount, and this responsibility falls heavily on the shoulders of laboratory managers. The economics of food testing—encompassing everything from high-throughput pesticide screening to advanced research on alternative protein sources—plays a pivotal role in shaping the operational efficiency and financial health of these laboratories.
