Journal publications using the Echo® MS (+) system by Han Wang | Jun 17, 2025 | Blogs, Echo® MS+ system, PharmaThe Echo® MS+ system is a novel platform for Acoustic Ejection Mass Spectrometry (AEMS) and combines the speed of acoustic sampling with the selectivity of mass spectrometry. This platform has been designed for high throughput analysis of small and large molecules. The technology combines Acoustic Droplet Ejection (ADE), an Open Port Interface (OPI) and could be coupled with the SCIEX Triple Quad 6500+ system or the ZenoTOF 7600 system.
Technical notes using the Echo® MS+ system by Anuja Bhalkikar | Jun 17, 2025 | Blogs, Echo® MS+ system, PharmaThe Echo® MS+ system comprises of an open-port interface (OPI) and acoustic droplet ejection (ADE) module which could be coupled with a mass spectrometer. The mass spectrometer could either be a SCIEX Triple Quad 6500+ system or the ZenoTOF 7600 system. This non-liquid chromatography based; high-throughput screening platform enables rapid analysis of compounds at speeds of up to 1 sample/second.
Methods for electrode cleaning for Echo MS systems by John Gibbons | Jun 3, 2025 | Blogs, Echo® MS+ system, PharmaDepending on the samples that you are running on the system, it is possible for the Echo MS electrode to become dirty or occluded over time. Below are two different cleaning strategies that will be helpful for you to maintain your system and keep your electrodes running well.
5 time-saving suggestions for small molecule LC-MS/MS bioanalytical method development by Kean Woodmansey | May 23, 2025 | Blogs, PharmaDeveloping an analytical method can be one of the most rewarding jobs an analytical scientist can do, but it can also be one of the most complex and frustrating. To help guide your practical experiments and thought processes we spoke to Kean Woodmansey to benefit from his experience.
Six benefits of remote support every laboratory should know by Andrea Mueller | Apr 11, 2025 | Biopharma, Blogs, Environmental / Industrial, Food / Beverage, Food and Beverage, Forensic, Instrument maintenance, Life Science Research, Optimizing Performance, Pharma, Service, Support, Technology, TrainingImagine 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
Pharma perspectives: The role of digital and software solutions in pharmaceutical R&D by Kean Woodmansey | Mar 31, 2025 | Blogs, PharmaIt is no secret that (bio)pharmaceutical research and development is complex, both scientific and regulatory processes. Here is an overview of just some of the ways SCIEX is working to support these challenges.
Inside the box: Acoustic ejection mass spectrometry for drug discovery by Kirsten Craven | Feb 12, 2025 | Blogs, Discovery, Echo® MS+ system, Pharma, QA/QCOn average, it takes 10-15 years and 1-2 billion dollars to approve a new pharmaceutical for clinical use. Since approximately 90% of new drug candidates fail in clinical development, the ability to make early, informed and accurate decisions on the safety and efficacy of new hits and leads is key to increasing the chances of success.
Inside the box: Complementary fragmentation with LC-MS for Metabolite Identification by Kirsten Craven | Feb 7, 2025 | Blogs, Pharma, ZenoTOF 7600 systemLiquid chromatography-mass spectrometry is commonly used for Met ID but confident soft spot identification is not always possible. Imagine the advantage of unambiguous metabolite identification using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) reducing the need for additional safety testing during drug discovery. Quickly and easily generate the information you need using routine assays that are robust and efficient, enabling confident decision-making while also saving time and money.
The whys behind the dos and don’ts of oligonucleotide analysis by Kerstin Pohl | Feb 1, 2025 | Biopharma, Blogs, PharmaWe know that LC-MS oligonucleotide analysis can have its share of challenges—challenges with sensitivity, challenges with adduct formation and challenges with data analysis, to name just a few. That’s why this blog takes a closer look at the dos and don’ts of this type of analysis and explores some keys to success. It also explains why following these simple rules can vastly improve your oligonucleotide characterization and quantitation efficiency and success.
Pharma perspectives: The influence of LC-MS innovation on drug development outsourcing by Kean Woodmansey | Jan 13, 2025 | Blogs, Pharma, ZenoTOF 7600 systemIt is no secret that (bio)pharmaceutical research and development is complex, both scientific and regulatory processes. Working for a contract research organization and more recently for SCIEX has provided an interesting perspective on trends the market experiences that affect many of us.
