Bringing a new drug to market is a costly and complex process. With potentially hundreds of thousands of new compounds to screen during drug discovery, sample throughput is a common bottleneck for pharmaceutical companies. So how do you overcome this barrier?
The challenges Let’s dig a little deeper into some of the related organizational challenges. On average, the development time for a new drug is 10–15 years, and Deloitte recently reported that the average cost of approving a new pharmaceutical for clinical use rose to $2.3 billion in 20221. Since approximately 90% of new drug candidates fail during development, the ability to make early, informed and accurate decisions about the safety and efficacy of new leads is key to saving time, reducing costs and maximizing success.
The solution The Echo® MS system, which can provide accurate mass spectrometry data in seconds, can help ease these challenges. Based on Acoustic Ejection Mass Spectrometry (AEMS), this system removes the need for chromatographic separation, which increases analytical speed without compromising data quality.
This free infographic explores the concepts of AEMS-based workflows, and the benefits of using this approach for efficient and rapid lead optimization of drug candidates. For example:

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.
Imagine having a tech expert at your fingertips to solve computer issues or a fitness trainer guiding you through workouts from the comfort of your home. In today’s fast-paced world, the ability to provide and receive service and support remotely is no longer a luxury but a necessity. Whether it’s troubleshooting a software issue, repairing a device, offering customer assistance, or enjoying the convenience of telehealth as a private individual, remote capabilities have revolutionized how businesses operate and how individuals get help
