The instrument is a quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer with a very fast acquisition rate and a very high sensitivity.

Review Date: 18 Feb 2019 | Shimadzu Corporation

The LCMS-9030 quadrupole time-of-fight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometer integrates the world’s fastest and most sensitive quadrupole technology with powerful TOF architecture to transform high mass accuracy workflows by achieving high-sensitivity, high-speed, and high-resolution detection.

The LCMS-9030 Q-TOF delivers outstanding mass accuracy over a wide mass range, enabling users to consistently produce accurate identification results. The need for infrequent calibration makes it easy to achieve high mass accuracy over long periods. High efficiency ion guides, quadrupole, and collision cell enable high sensitivity for the detection of trace level compounds. And, due to its robust platform, the LCMS-9030 achieves reproducible quantitative analysis over longer periods of time.

The LCMS-9030 incorporates the patented ultrafast technologies used in Shimadzu LC-MS/MS platforms to deliver outstanding speed. Innovative TOF architecture, such as the iRefTOF reflectron technology, which generates an ideal reflectron field, enables precise, ultra-fast pulsing of ions into the flight tube and ideal reflection back to the detector. The result is high-speed data acquisition compatible with the high-throughput laboratory.

A fast and simple workflow for mAb post-translational modifications study using LCMS-9030 Q-TOF

During drug development, it is crucial to closely monitor the changes in the post-translational modification (PTM) amino acid relative site abundance percentage values, such as methionine (M) oxidation or asparagine (N) deamidation, as it can impact the efficacy, stability and immunogenicity of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).

Explore a simple and straightforward workflow to quantify the amino acid site relative abundance using peptide mapping analysis. Discover how a Shimadzu LCMS-9030 QTOF mass spectrometer coupled with Protein Metrics software provides high mass resolution to accurately identify, separate, and quantify the modified peptides with small mass shift differences. The use of peptide mapping analysis for PTM study can provide valuable insights into the mAbs characteristics to support early to late-stage drug development.

Revealing the invisible web: Solutions for an efficient analysis of PFAS

In this application note, Shimadzu discusses the challenges and solutions for per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) analysis, including how to avoid sample contamination and sample loss, and how to optimize data processing. PFAS are a family of synthetic chemicals resistant to degradation and accumulate in the environment and living organisms, posing risks to humans and ecosystems. Shimadzu’s LC-MS/MS instruments and LabSolutions Insight software can streamline PFAS analysis, automate QA/QC flagging, and ensure data integrity. The use of PFAS-free containers, avoiding storing samples in glass, and SPE cartridges tests are necessary to avoid sample contamination.

Managing the risk of nitrosamines in medicinal drugs

Nitrosamines, also known as N-nitrosamines, refer to any molecule with a nitroso functional group (NO⁺) bonded to a deprotonated amine. Nitrosamine impurities are of particular concern as there is evidence that they can be carcinogenic, and therefore their presence in medicines is considered unacceptable.

In this free eBook, discover a range of ultra-fast mass spectrometry technologies for the quantification of trace levels of nitrosamine impurities from various drug substances, drug products, and solvents.

This eBook will also cover:

  • Sartan analysis
  • Metformin analysis
  • Other API analyses
  • Residual solvent analysis
