Testing Robustness: Immunosuppressant Drugs in Blood with a TSQ Quantis MS for Clinical Research

2 Mar 2018

Mass spectrometry is a popular choice of technology in clinical research for the quantitation of immunosuppressant drugs in whole blood samples. A sensitive and robust instrument is required for reliable quantitation workflows. In this study, the robustness of the TSQ Quantis triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for analysis of immunosuppressant drugs in whole blood samples in demonstrated.

Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ Flex Quaternary UHPLC System

Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ Flex Binary UHPLC system is biocompatible with a state-of-the-art binary high-pressure pump and state-of-the-art binary solvent blending. This ultra high performance liquid chromatography system shares all Vanquish values, such as a design focused on uptime, robustness and reliability. Multiple detection options as well as Thermo Scientific™ Viper™ fingertight connections throughout the system will give you the performance you need with the ease of use you want. Our SmartFlow™ pumping technology with automatic compensation for changing eluent compressibility ensures excellent flow and gradient precision, independent of eluent composition and backpressures. This gives you unrivaled retention time precision and highest data confidence, even for ternary and quaternary gradients, and for more freedom in method development and application switching. Detection capabilities include high sensitivity and linearity Diode Array Detection with LightPipe technology, selective and sensitive Fluorescence Detection and near-universal detection capabilities with the Vanquish Charged Aerosol Detector. Key Features: Integrated modularity design concept to offer uncompromising UHPLC State-of-the-art quaternary solvent blending 1000 bar of pump pressure and flow rates up to 8 mL/min Industry-leading flow and gradient precision Multiple detection options including DAD, FLD and CAD Relevant Applications: Separations of Intact mAbs Analysis of labeled glycans Ternary gradient impurity profiling Efficient, reliable peptide mapping
