With the LCMS-TQ RX series, the data reliability has been heightened by stabling the sample ionization with the ion source improved. This series is equipped with functions that check the instrument status prior to measurements, and automatically implement calibration (tuning), as well as ecology mode for minimizing standby power consumption, thereby achieving high-efficiency laboratory operations with a low environmental impact. Through this series, Shimadzu will heighten the efficiency of laboratory work related to pharmaceuticals, food product development, and environmental inspection so that we contribute to the growth of research and development in healthcare, green transformation, and other sectors.
Tackling PFAS contamination with cutting-edge robust analytical solutions
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a diverse group of over 4000 organic fluorinated compounds, which have been widely used in industry since the 1950s. Their properties make these substances heat-resistant, oil- and water-repellent, and chemically and thermally stable.
For these reasons, PFAS have multiple uses and commonly function as surface treatment agents, water repellents, coatings and even fire extinguishers. Those very properties make them resistant to degradation and this has led to their persistence in the environment and bioaccumulation through food chains and other routes of exposure.
In this expert guide, we explore Shimadzu Corporation’s range of chromatography and mass spectrometry (MS) solutions for detecting very low levels of PFAS in a range of matrices. Plus, learn through a series of case studies how Shimadzu’s Triple Quadrupole LCMS instruments and other analytical methods meet and often exceed performance criteria included in EPA methods for PFAS analysis – generating accurate results with fast turnaround times designed to enhance lab productivity.
Transforming LC-MS/MS blood sample processing for faster clinical results
September 17, 2025, at 13:00 BST / 14:00 CEST / 08:00 EDT / 05:00 PDT
Processing an ever-growing number of blood samples in clinical labs places constant pressure on laboratory staff, workflows, and instrumentation to deliver accurate, high-throughput results with minimal turnaround time.
Traditional LC-MS/MS workflows are used to analyze blood samples and though they are highly sensitive and specific, they often require experienced personnel, manual sample preparation, and time-consuming data handling.
Discover in this exciting webinar how automation can transform these bottlenecks. Hear from Dr. Frank Streit from University Medical Center Göttingen, as he discusses how a Clinical Laboratory Automated Module (CLAM) can streamline processes from barcode scanning and Laboratory Information System (LIS)-driven test selection, to sample prep, analysis, and result reporting.
Key learning objectives:
- Understand how the CLAM-2040 enables full automation of LC-MS/MS workflows, from barcode scanning to result reporting.
- Find out how the integration of the CLAM-2040 with LIS systems via HL7 interface offers seamless data exchange and test request handling.
- Recognize the advantages of 24/7 unattended operation for high-throughput clinical testing environments.
- Discover how non-expert technicians can perform complex LC-MS/MS analyses without specialized mass spectrometry or chromatography training.
Who should attend?
- Clinical laboratory professionals involved in diagnostic testing, including lab managers, medical technologists, and clinical scientists seeking to streamline LC-MS/MS workflows and increase throughput.
- Healthcare and clinical decision-makers including pathologists, clinical chemists, and laboratory directors interested in adopting automated, scalable mass spectrometry solutions.
