Webinar Date/Time: Tue, Oct 24, 2023 11:00 AM EDT
This webinar will present a rapid, simple, and mass spectrometry (MS)-based urine screen that vastly improves screening and is amenable to quick response to new drug targets. Learn about direct analysis in real time (DART), an ambient ionization technique, and understand how it is used in conjunction with MS in toxicology screening.

Event Overview
Conventional toxicology urine screens often employ immunoassay, which are prone to false negatives and positives, cross talk, and a variety of other issues. Additions of new test targets are slow and cannot adequately respond to a fast-moving introduction of new substances in today’s world. This webinar will present a rapid, simple, and mass spectrometry (MS)-based urine screen that vastly improves screening and is amenable to quick response to new drug targets.
Key Learning Objectives:
Who Should Attend:
All parties interested in simplifying and accelerating toxicology screening in production environments while improving data quality.
Speakers:
Terry Bates, PhD
Applications Specialist
Bruker Applied Mass Spectrometry
Terry Bates earned his PhD under the supervision of Dr Gavin Sacks lab at Cornell University where his work focused on the development of novel extraction geometries and rapid throughput analysis for trace level (ng/kg-mg/kg) analytes in complex matrices using solid-phase mesh-enhanced sorption from headspace-direct analysis in real time-mass spectrometry (SPMESH-DART-MS). Terry has additional experience working with chromatography-based techniques (e.g., SPME-GC-MS, LCMS). Prior to his PhD program, Terry earned his BS in molecular biology from the University of Denver and his MS in analytical chemistry at Cornell University. Most recently, Terry began as an application specialist in the Bruker Applied Mass Spectrometry (BAMS) division developing high-throughput chromatography-free workflows for the forensic toxicology, food and beverage, and environmental monitoring industries.
François Espourteille, PhD
Application Manager
Bruker Applied Mass Spectrometry
François Espourteille brings over 25 years of expertise in LC-MSMS applications. He earned a BS and MS from The College of William and Mary in Virginia and received a PhD from Rutgers University, followed by a post-doctoral position at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He joined Cohesive Technologies of Franklin, MA in the application group and subsequently managed the application group for Aria and Transcend platforms within Thermo Fisher Scientific until 2014. For the following decade, François has focused on clinical/toxicological LC-MSMS assays, high-throughput workflows, and 2D LCMS platforms as a consultant. He joined Bruker Applied Mass Spectrometry (BAMS) in 2021 as the DART-MS and Triple Quadrupole Application Manager.

SFE-SFC-MS Used to Analyze Transferred Plastic Additives from Laboratory Materials
September 30th 2024Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was combined with supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) hyphenated to mass spectrometry (MS) to analyze plastic additives that could be transferred into the environment from laboratory gloves.
