This webinar features several useful tools to simplify or even eliminate the sample preparation involved prior to mass spectrometry. In this educational session you will learn about several prep-free mass spec techniques that are available, and how to select which method is best for your analysis. Advion will share their perspectives on some of the new tools and protocols to minimize and simplify sample preparation. You’ll learn how to reduce your time in the lab and see your mass spec results in as little as 30 seconds!
As an attendee, you will learn more about:
How to select the best tools for sample introduction based on your compound
How new tools can reduce or eliminate sample preparation for results in <30 seconds
New workflows to maximize your time in the lab by simplifying complex processes

Deuterium exchange has been demonstrated to provide additional information to accurate mass measurement and collision‐induced dissociation on unknown chemical structures. An enhanced method for rapid deuterium exchange could make this technique more routine for structural elucidation. Open port sampling interface mass spectrometry (OPSI‐MS) with an aprotic solvent offers a rapid method for performing deuterium incorporation.
This publication features the Advion Interchim Scientific® Touch Express™ OPSI with the expression® Compact Mass Spectrometer (CMS).
In this note, a quick and direct screening method for the detection of illicit drugs on paper currency is introduced using the Touch Express™ Open Port Sampling Interface (OPSI) on the Advion expression® Compact Mass Spectrometer (CMS).A range of paper currency bills from different countries were analyzed for traces of illicit drugs.
Mass spectrometry is an analytical technique used to determine the mass-to-charge ratio of ions in a sample and therefore the sample composition. This method is used across many industries including food and beverage, environmental monitoring, and clinical. There are many features of mass spectrometers that must be considered before purchasing such as the required mass analyzer technology, ionization source, and dissociation technique. Join Lab Manager and our panel of experts as we discuss how to decipher mass spectrometry technology offerings and find the right solution for your lab.
As an attendee, you will learn more about:
Available technology for performing mass spectrometry
Features to consider when purchasing mass spectrometry instruments
How to find the right mass spectrometer for your application
Environmental monitoring is vital to understanding the world around us. Air quality, water, and soil testing all provide valuable information about an environment’s status. Tools and technologies for environmental monitoring can be used to evaluate the sanitation of a food and beverage lab or to monitor an ecosystem’s recovery after an oil spill. Join Lab Manager and our panel of experts as we review the tools available for environmental testing and monitoring.
As an attendee, you will learn more about:
Developments in technology for environmental testing and monitoring
Considerations when purchasing technology for environmental testing and monitoring
Applications for environmental testing and monitoring across industries

Food and beverage labs use techniques from other disciplines such as microbiology, environmental monitoring, and analytical chemistry to test for food and beverage contaminants. Unlike these disciplines, the food and beverage industry is highly regulated and therefore food and beverage labs have very specific needs. Join Lab Manager and our panel of experts as we discuss tools for food and beverage testing.
In this webinar, you will learn more about:
The latest technology for testing in the food and beverage lab
Applications for tools and technologies in the food and beverage lab
Considerations when purchasing instruments for food and beverage testing
In this Lab Manager webinar, Dr. Daniel Eikel, Advion Director of Product Applications and Customer Service reviews the use of the Advion expression Compact Mass Spectrometer (CMS) for food and beverage analysis.
As an attendee, you will learn more about:
How leading technologies and techniques affect food science researchers
How to establish workflows that optimize the efficiency of your food science lab
New and novel applications in the field of food and beverage science
Thanks to the diminishing size and cost of mass spectrometers, coupled with their increasing robustness and ease of use, universities are now starting to furnish their undergraduate chemistry laboratories with this advanced analytic tool.
“My favorite learning environment is the laboratory,” explains Paul A. Flowers, professor of analytical chemistry at University of North Carolina at Pembroke. “I like teaching students fundamentals through bona fide research experiences.” Flowers began using mass spectrometry in the teaching laboratory about six years ago and hasn’t looked back.
