PFAS testing: 2024 in review and what to expect for 2025
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 wildlife. Different countries are at various stages of addressing PFAS contamination and many governments have set regulatory limits and are working on assessing the extent of contamination, cleaning up affected sites and researching safer alternatives.

Inside the box: Acoustic ejection mass spectrometry for drug discovery
On 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.

Unveiling the power of ZT Scan DIA: Insights from Ludwig Sinn’s presentation at World HUPO Congress 2024
In a recent presentation at the World HUPO Congress 2024, Ludwig Sinn from the Ralser lab shared exciting advancements in proteomics research, focusing on the innovative ZT Scan DIA acquisition modes developed in collaboration with SCIEX. Let us explore the key highlights and benefits of this innovative technology.

Exploring the power of ZT Scan DIA
In a recent presentation, Tim Heymann from Mann Lab at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry shared his first impressions of ZT Scan DIA, the novel data-independent acquisition strategy from SCIEX, highlighting its innovative approach and significant benefits for proteomics research. Let’s dive into the key points from his insightful talk.

Inside the box: Complementary fragmentation with LC-MS for Metabolite Identification
Liquid 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.

Tips and tricks from our application experts: AAV analysis with CE
Peter Holper, Staff Applications Scientist at SCIEX, US, shares his tips and tricks on AAV analysis using CE with the BioPhase 8800 system and the PA 800 Plus system.

Understanding PFAS and its impact on U.S. drinking water
In recent years, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), often referred to as “forever chemicals,” have become a growing topic of interest due to their persistence in the environment and potential health risks. These synthetic compounds have been widely used in various industrial applications and consumer products since the 1940s. PFAS can be found in the air, soil, and water, and studies have shown that most people have detectable levels of PFAS in their bloodstream. One of the main exposure pathways for humans is through drinking water, particularly in communities located near industrial sites, military bases, or areas where firefighting foam has been used.

Methods for OPI electrode cleaning for Echo® MS system electrodes
Depending 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...

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...

Assess the performance of the Echo® MS system
