Advion, Inc. a leading life sciences Systems and
Consumables developer, introduces the expression, a Compact Mass Spectrometer
(CMS), designed for the discovery research and process development synthetic
organic chemistry market. Compact enough to operate in fume hoods and
space-restricted laboratories, these chemists now have direct access to
identify, monitor and confirm compounds rapidly as they are created in the
reactor. Moreover, the personal single quadrupole mass spectrometer allows for
rapid compound confirmation in normal phase chromatography fractions.
Traditionally, chemists initiate a multi‐hour reaction
and periodically withdraw samples for analysis in an open access mass
spectrometry lab. The remote analysis
takes hours, decreasing the usefulness of the information and building workflow
inefficiencies. Additionally, large numbers of normal phase purification
fractions are generated and add to the central lab burden, further slowing
vital feedback. The combination of a small footprint, critical design features,
and an intuitive software package permits operation within a fume hood, or next
to existing bench instrumentation, allowing users access to fast answers.
The newly-released and shipment-ready CMS is on exhibit
(booth 1569), and a press conference is scheduled during the Annual Pittcon
meeting in Orlando, FL.
