The rules have changed
Labs are changing with evolving needs – is your LC-MS software ready? 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...
The wakeup call
Analyst still works today; but is your LC-MS software ready for tomorrow’s regulated environment? 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...
Pesticide residue testing in food: Supporting confident and compliant analysis
Read time: 4 Minutes Pesticides are widely used in agriculture to protect crops and maintain yield, but their presence in food must be carefully monitored. To safeguard consumers, regulatory authorities worldwide set maximum residue limits (MRLs), often at very low...
EAD vs. ETD: Choosing the right fragmentation technique for small molecule Met ID studies
Read time: 2 minutes 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...
Advancing bioanalysis with SCIEX: Insights from three decades of innovation

The rise of TFA in Europe’s cereals: How SCIEX and Phenomenex empower accurate detection of this “forever chemical”
Read time: 3 Mins Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) has emerged as one of the most concerning PFAS in Europe’s food supply - particularly in cereals, a staple consumed daily by millions. A report from PAN Europe reveals a widespread and largely unmonitored contamination...
What do scientists really think about EAD for Met ID?
Read time: 3 minutes During an LC-MS/MS experiment, traditional fragmentation techniques like collision-induced dissociation (CID) have long been the gold standard. Electron-activated dissociation (EAD) is emerging as a transformative tool that enhances structural...
Choosing the right LC-MS system for bioanalysis: Let’s make it easier
Read time: 3 minutes Investing in a new liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) system is a big decision, especially when your lab handles a wide variety of analytical tasks. With so many options out there, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. That’s where this blog...
Tackling mycotoxin testing: Harnessing mass spectrometry for safer foods and healthier futures
Read time: 3 minutes Produced by certain moulds, thriving in crops such as grain, nuts and coffee, mycotoxins have contaminated agriculture and food production industries for a long time. To intensify the challenge, mycotoxins are resilient, not easily broken down and...
The economics of food testing: A strategic perspective for laboratory managers
Read time: 7 minutes 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...
PFAS testing: 2024 in review and what to expect for 2025
Read Time: 5 minutes For as long as PFAS persist in the environment, there is no doubt they will persist in our conversations as environmental scientists. Globally, PFAS contamination has been detected in water supplies, soil and even in the blood of people and...
