The LCGC Blog: GC Inlet Maintenance...Have You Really Heard It All Before?
Many troubleshooting investigations in chromatography often don't lead to a single causal factor. Often, the reason for problems or lack of method robustness are related to many small "contributory factors" and this is particularly true of the problems associated with sample introduction in capillary gas chromatography.  More...

Clinical Applications of LC-MS:  Development and Research Application of a Highly Sensitive LC-MS Method for Quantification of a Cholesterol Protein in Plasma
Thursday, May 15 , 2014, 8:00 AM PDT/ 11:00 AM EDT/ 4:00 PM BST/ 5:00 PM CEST
This webinar will discuss this method, from method development (optimal antibody determination using MSIA and SRM LC–MS-MS in terms of PTM determination, LOD/LOQ, and linearity over PCSK9’s clinical dynamic range) to applying to a test case with control plasma samples and samples with a known mutation to determine method specificity. In summary, a robust and sensitive MSIA-SRM method was developed for the absolute quantification of all PCSK9 domains and a PTM in plasma.
