This glossary serves as a helpful reference to both novice and advanced scientists, engineers, and business executives involved with biopharmaceuticals and gene therapy technologies. Online sources of information for topics covered in this guide are also included for additional insights.
High-Throughput Analysis of Volatile Compounds in Air, Water, and Soil Using SIFT-MS (Apr 2024)
March 27th 2024This study demonstrates high-throughput analysis of BTEX compounds from several matrices (air, water and soil). Detection limits in the single-digit part-per-billion concentration range (by volume) are readily achievable within seconds using SIFT-MS, because sample analysis is achieved without chromatography, pre-concentration, or drying. We also present a calibration approach that enables speciation of ethylbenzene from the xylenes in real time.
Adoption of SIFT-MS for VOC Pollution Monitoring in South Korea
March 27th 2024This publication reviews VOC pollutant monitoring applications of SIFT-MS in South Korea. SIFT-MS has been applied to emission source characterization, fenceline monitoring, ambient monitoring, pollution mapping, and incident response (including the use of drone-based sampling) for hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), odor nuisance species, and compounds that have high ozone formation potential (OFP) and/or contribute to secondary aerosol (SOA) formation.
Application Compendium: Alternative Proteins Testing
March 21st 2024Agilent workflow solutions, designed for the food and beverages industry, serve as a comprehensive resource for testing alternative proteins. This compendium provides 15 applications across various domains, such as taste and flavor, nutrition, food quality, and food safety leveraging advanced analytical techniques like ICP-MS, LC/MS, GC/MS, and HPLC.
Simple Rapid Analysis of Packaging for Volatile MOSH and MOAH Contaminants
March 20th 2024This application note demonstrates that automated headspace-SIFT-MS analysis has the potential to screen larger sample numbers for the volatile MOH fraction, providing a rapid indication of packaging material contamination. As benzene has also recently been found to be problematic in commercial products, Headspace-SIFT-MS can screen over 220 samples per day for volatile MOSH and MOAH compounds – nearly seven-fold more samples than the routine liquid and gas chromatography method.
Multi-Class DUID Drug Method for 127 Analytes in Blood and Urine by LC-MS/MS
March 13th 2024Advances in LC-MS/MS technology have allowed for a more comprehensive and rapid multi-class drug method to be developed. This highlighted method allows for the use of a protein precipitation and sample filtration with Thomson eXtreme|Filter Vials® followed by a rapid 8 min/sample run time, thus allowing for the reduction in multiple LC-MS/MS methods being run in the laboratory, freeing up valuable instrument time.
