The dream state If we lived in an ideal world, it would be possible to unambiguously identify metabolites using a single analytical experiment. This analytical technique would need to be efficient and easily generate the information needed from a routine assay that is also robust, enabling confident decision-making during drug discovery. At SCIEX, we believe that metabolite identification using the ZenoTOF 7600 system gets close to this dream state.
The first small footprint full-stack HPLC System
March 21st 2025A full-stack capillary HPLC system, such as the one recently launched by Axcend, integrates several innovative features that set it apart from traditional HPLC systems. This compact system includes a 40-vial/96-well plate autosampler, an in-line process analytical technology (PAT) monitoring system, and a full-spectrum diode array detector (DAD). These components work together to enable real-time data analysis at the point of sampling, significantly enhancing productivity and precision. One of the most remarkable aspects of this system is its small footprint, which optimizes valuable lab and production space while reducing costs and environmental impact (the base measures 13" X 9"). The low-flow design minimizes solvent consumption and hazardous waste, aligning with sustainable laboratory practices. Additionally, the system's ability to perform HPLC anywhere—whether inside a hood or next to a reaction vessel—provides unparalleled flexibility for scientists.
