Adsorbable organically bound fluorine (AOF) is used to screen water for PFASs. DIN 38409-59 outlines AOF analysis with pyrohydrolytic combustion and ion chromatography.

HDX-MS with online EC reduction enables successful epitope mapping of mAbs to challenging S-S bonded protein targets, e.g., VEGF. The biophysical characterization of VHH-IR4, a BBB-crossing single-domain antibody (sdAb) is described for the first time and was only possible using EC reduction.

High-Performance Anion Exchange Chromatography in combination with PAD or MS detection is the method of choice for the analysis of all classes of carbohydrates including glycans. A novel anion-exchange stationary phase SweetSep™ has been developed that allows for fast and high resolution separation.

The new column enables for (a) fast, high-resolution separation of carbohydrates, (b) analysis of carbohydrates over a high molecular weight range: from mono– to oligosaccharides, (c) analysis of complex carbohydrate mixtures in food (e.g., honey, lactose in lactose-free labeled products, fructooligosaccharides, etc.).

Shodex collaborated with Claros Technologies using HILICpakTM VT-50 2D Shodex column to study PFAS in industrial and ground water samples. Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been in industrial use since the 1960’s and are commonly found in the environment.

Different classes of antibodies, including IgG1, 2 and 4, are immediately reduced down to light and heavy chain without the need of enzymes, denaturing or reducing agents using inline EC-LCMS. The workflow can be used for IdeS digested mAbs and does not affect the quantitation of acid labile species such as sialylated N-glycans.

Process and Quantitate All xC/UV/MS Data in a Single Interface with Software Compatible with Major Vendor Formats.

The AEX200 column demonstrate (a) fast separation of mono-, di- and trisaccharides in various food sample matrices, (b)sensitive quantification of carbohydrates down to femtomole levels, (c) high-resolution separation of high-molecular weight oligosaccharides with a degree of polymerization up DP of 60.

Separation of all 6 glycan monosaccharides of interest and 2-Deoxy-D-Glucose (glycosylation inhibitor) was achieved within 7 minutes using the new SweetSep™ AEX20 column under isocratic elution conditions. Furthermore, profiling of released N-glycans from glycoproteins without the need for sample derivatization is shown using HPAEC-MS.

Using the structure verification and knowledge management capabilities in MS Structure ID Suite, Medtronic has created a data-handling workflow for chemical characterization and database curation.

The retention time prediction capabilities of ACD/Chromgenius are outlined, and a suggestion of how these can be incorporated into a typical investigative water monitoring workflow is also included.

Retention modeling has proven to be a successful technique in accelerating method development and optimization. This case study gives a more detailed insight into how scientists at Merck use computer-assisted modeling to develop robust methods faster.

The new Revident LC/Q-TOF system is leveraged for the screening of pesticides in complex matrix utilizing data independent acquisition (DIA). Confident identification is made through a combination of high-resolution, extended dynamic range, stable accurate mass, and isotopic fidelity which can be quickly and easily analyzed via the customizable LC Screener Tool, simplifying the processing of complex screening data. Along with this screening capability, new automated software, Intelligent Reflex, uses the results and allows for the reinjection and targeted confirmation of questionable and/or identified residues. This reduces the amount of time from sample introduction to confident characterization.
