Methods for OPI electrode cleaning for Echo® MS system electrodes by Christie Hunter | 1 CommentDepending on the samples you are running on the system, it is possible for the Open Port Interface (OPI) electrode to become dirty or occluded over time. Below are two different cleaning strategies that can help you maintain your Echo® MS system and keep your OPI...
EchoMS OPI Leakage Issue by Amanda Bergamin | 1 CommentWhat is the best way to determine if a recurrent OPI leak during standard operation is due to a faulty/ fouled OPI probe head or a fouled/damaged electrode or poor flow rate optimization?
Adapting a SCIEX high flow source for microflow LC by Christie Hunter | 0 CommentsTo set up a SCIEX high flow source for microflow LC (Turbo V ion source, DuoSpray source or IonDrive Turbo V ion source), first you must replace the wider bore electrodes with more narrow bore hybrid electrodes. Note with the OptiFlow Turbo V ion sources, there are...
Tips to maximize electrode lifetime for Echo MS system by Mackenzie Pearson | 0 CommentsWhile it’s easy to think of the Echo® MS system as an ultrafast LC system in front of the SCIEX Triple Quad 6500+ mass spectrometer, the system operates on fundamentally different principles. For this reason, it requires different routine maintenance to keep it...

A rising star in food allergen research: proteomics of shellfish allergen by SCIEX Community | Blogs, Food / Beverage, Life Science Research, ProteomicsIt’s important to know what you’re eating, especially if you suffer from a food allergy. About 220 million people worldwide live with a food allergy.1 These numbers, along with the complexity and severity of conditions, continue to rise. In America, there are about 32 million food allergy sufferers—5.6 million of those are children under the age of 18.2.2 That’s 1 out of every 13 children, or about 2 in every classroom. From a financial perspective, the cost of food allergy childcare for US families is up to $25 billion
