Comparison of LC–MS and GC–MS for the Analysis of Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products in Surface Water and Treated Wastewaters
This study of a selected group of PPCP contaminants in eastern North Carolina demonstrates the advantages and disadvantages of LC–MS and GC–MS as well as SPE and liquid–liquid extraction.
Torion® Portable GC/MS
PerkinElmer's Torion® T-9 Portable GC/MS is the smallest instrument available for GC/MS analyses outside of the lab in the field. The system rapidly screens chemicals, including environmental volatiles and semivolatiles (VOCs/SVOCs), explosives, chemical warfare agents and hazardous substances. It can also be used in food safety and industrial applications. The system is fully self-contained, weighs 32 pounds with rechargeable battery operation. Learn more
Simultaneous Quantitation of Buprenorphine and Its Metabolites Using LC–MS
An LC–MS method for simultaneous quantification of buprenorphine and three metabolites: norbuprenorphine, buprenorphine glucuronide, and norbuprenorphine glucuronide.
Spellman's MX10Plus Module
Spellman's RoHS compliant MX10Plus is a well-regulated high performance fast reversible supply featuring a 25ms “hot switchable” polarity reversing capability.  It can be easily tailored to an OEM's requirement.  To discuss the MX10Plus, contact a Spellman Sales Engineer or download the datasheet
The Applicability of Field-Portable GC–MS for the Rapid Sampling and Measurement of High-Boiling-Point Semivolatile Organic Compounds in Environmental Samples
A look at the use of field-portable GC–MS with solid-phase microextraction, purge-and-trap, thermal desorption, and heated headspace sampling techniques to provide a fast response for in-field analysis of SVOCs in a wide variety of environmental-type samples including potable waters, tea, plants, and road gravel.
Application note
Discrimination of Lipids in Heart Tissue using DESI HRMS MSI
Mass Spectrometric Imaging (MSI) using DESI provides molecular imaging without the interference of the matrix required for MALDI and offers the advantage of preserving sample for further analysis. DESI coupled to High Resolution Accurate Mass (HRAM), is shown here to elucidate spatial distribution of lipids, protein, and metabolites in tissue sections and can provide confident and discriminate biomarker determinations.

Cholesteryl-Bonded Core-Shell Reversed-Phase HPLC Column Exceptional Ionization for MS
COSMOCORE Cholester is a core-shell reversed-phase HPLC column with cholesteryl-bonded stationary phase. It has the same hydrophobicity as C18, and consequently it retains molecules in similar ways. The COSMOCORE Cholester differs by having superior shape selectivity. Learn more MS™ offers ASAP® and the MS™ multifunctional platform which includes laserless matrix ionization and nitrogen gas-free ionization of LC effluents. All products are powerful, simple to use, sensitive, and cost effective. Visit MSTMsolutions.com
