Industry News: Simplify Your Mass Spectrometry Sample Preparation with Tecan

Visit Tecan on booth #3504/3604 at this year’s Pittcon conference and exhibition to learn how to unlock the potential of your mass spectrometry (MS) laboratory. Returning to Chicago for 2014, this annual event runs from the 2nd to the 6th of March, and will give delegates the chance to learn about the latest innovations in laboratory science, including a broad range of laboratory automation solutions from Tecan.

Recent advances in MS instrumentation have led to an increasing number of laboratories choosing this technology for a wide range of applications. However, sample preparation techniques have not enjoyed the same rate of development, causing processing bottlenecks and reducing overall productivity. Automation of routine sample preparation can help to address these problems and, with a broad base of MS customers in drug discovery, clinical, toxicological, food and environmental laboratories, Tecan is perfectly placed to deliver innovative automated sample preparation solutions for virtually any application.

From solid phase and liquid-liquid extraction to protein precipitation and straightforward ‘dilute and shoot’ methods, Tecan provides seamless automation of routine sample preparation techniques. The Company’s broad portfolio ranges from consumable devices – such as the recently launched AC Extraction Plate™ – to fully automated Freedom EVO® workstations, ensuring an extensive range of systems and modules to perfectly fit your laboratory workflow and throughput. And with user­-oriented software features – such as the TouchTools™ graphical interface, advanced process security and sample tracking options – Tecan is committed to helping MS customers maximize their laboratory output.
