In a world where productivity means higher throughput, all laboratories would like to work with a technology providing an analysis 10 to 100 times faster than their current LC-MS/MS system. Drug quantification in plasma sample can be as fast as 4 seconds per sample without compromising your accuracy.

NOTE
The results published were obtained with a beta-LDTD ion source. Therefore, the laser patern reported should not be used with the current LDTD ion source. Moreover the CYP 1A2 should be run in negative mode. Please refer to the application note 0714 for updated operating conditions.
