AB Sciex and Leco Partner to Provide Solutions for Metabolomics Researchers

AB Sciex (Massachusetts, USA) and Leco (Michigan, USA) have formed a co-marketing partnership to provide support for researchers working in metabolomics in Europe and North America. Metabolomics researchers often use a systems biology approach that requires both liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS).

“As the industry leader in LC–MS, we interact with metabolomics researchers all over the world, and we understand that there are times when metabolomics researchers want to use both GC–MS and LC–MS,” said Aaron Hudson, Senior Director, Academic and Omics Business, AB Sciex. “Representing a virtual one-stop shop for metabolomics mass spectrometry, the joint bundles from AB Sciex and Leco provide users with greater flexibility in chromatography while obtaining the rich information that MS–MS delivers.”

The companies will offer “bundled” solutions for researchers requiring both separations. The application and service support teams from each company will work together.

“Bringing together leaders in GC–MS and LC–MS and facilitating the availability of our systems as complementary technologies helps ensure that metabolomics researchers can approach their work to obtain the very best data and information available,” said Jeffrey Patrick, Director of Marketed Technologies for Leco. “Our leadership in GC–MS technologies is a perfect complement to the offerings of AB Sciex and puts the combined power of our product portfolios, expertise, services and support to work for these researchers.”
