30 years of LC-MS/MS innovation continues


In 1989, the first commercial, dedicated Atmospheric Pressure Ionisation (API) tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry system was launched at the Pittsburgh Conference (PittCon) in Atlanta, Georgia (GA), USA. The API III, as it was called, was introduced to the analytical chemistry market to enable scientists to do pioneering work by quantifying molecules in liquid-phase samples. Previously, […]

Detect the Signal, Not the Noise


Improving the specificity and selectivity of your assay Your LC-MS assay is only as good as its power to discern your target compound from everything else. Standards dissolved in clean solvents can make beautiful assays, but analytes in real-world samples can behave quite differently. Coeluting compounds, background interferences, and other matrix effects can all severely […]

Make the Leap from GC to LC-MS/MS


Choosing the best technique for your analysis can be tough. Should you go with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)? That’s the key question. That’s why we’re here to help. The Limitations of GC-MSGC-MS is an established technique to analyze volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and trihalomethanes (THMs). Simply put, it’s a […]
