  • High-throughput Omics Solutions – The newest advancements in automation, reproducibility, robustness, and retrospective analysis allow high-throughput labs to scale-up their research like never before. Many new technologies and additions to SCIEX next-generation omics platforms will be discussed.

Sunday, June 5th at 9:55 am - The Lipidyzer™ Platform: A Revolutionary Tool for Understanding the Role of Lipids in Disease, Presented by Baljit Ubhi, Ph.D., Staff Scientist, Global Metabolomics & Lipidomics Applications, SCIEX, Salon E, 2d, Floor

Sunday, June 5th at 12:15 pm - Proteogenomic Profiling of Kinase Inhibitor Drug-Resistant Leukemia Cell Lines, Laurie Parker, Ph.D., Associate Prof., Dept. of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Biophysics, Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota, Salon E, 2nd Floor

  • New Biopharma Innovations – The latest additions to the SCIEX line of solutions for Biologics will be featured, including BioPharmaViewTM Software 2.0 and the SCIEX “360-degree innovation approach” to characterization, a full-circle portfolio to meet the Biologics Characterization challenges of today.

Sunday, June 5th at 8:55 am - BioPharmaView™ Software 2.0: A New Tool for Routine and Advanced Biologics Characterization Workflows, Presented by Milla Neffling, Ph.D., Advanced Workflow Specialist, Biologics, EMEA, SCIEX, Salon E, 2nd Floor

Wednesday, June 8th at 7:15 am - Strategies to Lower the Limits of Quantification in the Routine LC-MS/MS Bioanalysis of Biologic Drug Candidates, Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Conv. Center Room 302A

“SCIEX sees the future of the LC-MS laboratory differently; breakthrough solutions and innovative workflows are connecting researchers to their discoveries like never before,” said Jean-Paul Mangeolle, President of SCIEX. “The new solutions launching at ASMS this year, have been designed with direct feedback from our customers and will enable applied lab technicians and researchers to make more breakthroughs, around the globe, and achieve intelligent outcomes that will impact peoples’ lives for a healthier future.”

Throughout the ASMS conference, SCIEX will continue showcasing customer success utilizing its innovative platforms, at booth #101 and in their hospitality suite at the Grand Hyatt - Lone Star Ballroom ABC. In addition, scientists from SCIEX will be demonstrating ways to accelerate and improve workflows on a variety of instruments with oral presentations, users meetings, workshops, and posters.

LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis. Find the best LC-MS equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS).
