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.

Speakers
Dr. Frank Streit established LC-MS/MS methods for the quantification of immunosuppressants in the mass spectrometry laboratory at the University of Göttingen. He started LC-MS/MS routine quantification of sirolimus and everolimus in 1999 and of tacrolimus and ciclosporin in 2004. To date, he has led the development of LC-MS/MS methods for the quantification of more than 300 compounds for therapeutic drug monitoring.
