Overcoming N-nitrosamine analysis challenges with mass spectrometry and chromatography solutions

Overcoming N-nitrosamine analysis challenges with mass spectrometry and chromatography solutions

N-nitrosamine analysis has raised significant concerns in the pharmaceutical industry since 2018, when these potential carcinogens were found in several angiotensin II receptor blockers (sartans). Subsequent discoveries in ranitidine and some slow-release metformin medications prompted widespread product recalls. The industry has implemented stricter manufacturing requirements and intensified efforts to evaluate and control N-nitrosamine contamination. To meet stringent regulatory requirements, it is essential to develop effective chromatography and mass spectrometry (MS) methods for N-nitrosamine analysis. This blog addresses the challenges associated with detecting N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in metformin drug products.

Using Scheduled Ionization to reduce system ion load for proteomics data acquisition

Using Scheduled Ionization to reduce system ion load for proteomics data acquisition

When analyzing highly complex samples from biological matrices, there can be significant amounts of material that elute in the wash cycle of the LC run, depending on the up-front sample preparation used.  The Scheduled Ionization mode, available in both SCIEX OS...

Easy switching of sources and LC flow regimes on the ZenoTOF 7600 system

Automatic calibration in minutes for microflow LC with the OptiFlow source on ZenoTOF 7600 system

The OptiFlow ion source for the SCIEX ZenoTOF 7600 system is equipped with an ESI calibration probe for automatic calibration during microflow experiments (diagram below). The ESI probe is installed orthogonal to the microflow probe in the OptiFlow source and...
