At SCIEX, we are proud to provide analytical systems to the pharmaceutical industry. We work hard to understand the demands of analytical work and the processes required to develop and manufacture drugs.

While the performance of an analytical instrument is an obvious requirement, we also understand that developing a robust method is just the beginning. In one of the most highly regulated industries, it is no easy task to run a laboratory and satisfy all the relevant regulatory bodies around the world.

Much more than a metal box

If we have done our job right, our products should ease the burden of meeting regulatory requirements. SCIEX OS software is compliant-ready with features that support and enable you to be as efficient as possible and reduce the potential for human error.

For example, the user-friendly interface is intuitive, which reduces training time for scientists. Security management controls user access rights to prevent accidental changes to methods, method edits are logged for auditing and only approved users can sign off reports. These features are all designed to make your work life easier.

Meet our team

Our field service engineers and consultants are here for you, from system installation to method development and maintenance visits. You can choose a service level that meets your needs. Options include installation qualification and operational qualification (IQOQ) to ensure your system is always qualified, and that ongoing maintenance is taking place.

The qualification status of your instrument will be maintained because our engineers complete their work using good document practices to ensure you are audit-ready, giving you peace of mind. Read more about how to achieve 21 CFR Part 11 compliance with SCIEX OS software in accordance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP).

Let’s meet a few members of the SCIEX team and hear how they help customers every day.

ADC analytics FAQs: Answering the most common questions about ADC characterization

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as one of the fastest-growing classes of biotherapeutics, combining the targeting specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the potency of cytotoxic payloads. However, this unique architecture also introduces significant analytical complexity. From drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) distributions and charge variants to conjugation sites and structural modifications, ADCs present multiple, interconnected sources of heterogeneity that must be understood to ensure product quality and performance.

Sterile but toxic: Cereulide detection in food matrices

In a recent webinar, Ming Gao, Ph.D., Senior Research Chemist at Mérieux NutriSciences, explored the growing challenge of cereulide contamination in food products and the analytical strategies needed to detect this heat-stable toxin at trace levels. The session examined how LC-MS/MS can help laboratories overcome the limitations of traditional microbiological screening and meet emerging regulatory requirements.
