Register Now for Our e-Seminar Tony Bristow_AstraZeneca

 

Evolution and Revolution in Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry and the Potential Impact Within and Outside the Pharmaceutical Industry   

Presented by: Dr. Tony Bristow, Pharmaceutical Development, AstraZeneca UK

Date:   Thursday,  March 29, 2012  

Time:   9:00 am EDT (North America) * 1500 Hours CET (Europe) 

 

This presentation will review the developments in orthogonal acceleration and report the results from a study assessing the capability of HRT Instrumentation for the structural characterization of a number of small organic molecules and their associated impurities, used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and required for impurity tracking studies. The benefits of high-performance mass spectrometry including enhanced mass resolving power, data acquisition speed, and dynamic range will also be discussed.

60th ASMS Conference on Mass Spectrometry
and Allied Topics
 

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

 

It's not too early to start thinking about the ASMS Conference on Mass Spectrometry and Allied Topics. This year, plan to attend LECO's breakfast seminars, to be held Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (May 21, 22, and 23) during the conference. We'll focus on different applications each morning.  

 

Would you like your own private tour of LECO's technology and applications? Our LECO representatives welcome the opportunity to talk with you one-on-one during ASMS. Appointments will be available all week long in our hospitality suite.

 

Look for details about these special ASMS events in future LECO e-newsletters.

Applications Spotlight  

   

GC/GCxGC-TOFMS Analysis of Aroma Profile of HopsHops

Hops, Humulus lupulus, are one of the primary ingredients in beer and serve as both a natural preservative and as a flavoring agent. In this application note, a method is developed and tested using both one- and two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC and GCxGC) with Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOFMS) to determine aroma and flavor changes as a function of boil time. 

 

Light_Crude_OilGC-High Resolution TOFMS Analysis of Light Crude Oil  

Crude oil is a very complex mixture of organic compounds including aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic compounds. This study demonstrates the utility of GC-High Resolution TOFMS for the comprehensive analysis of light crude oil samples. Click here for more information
