This whitepaper explores the use of alternative chromatography technology for faster, more efficient analysis over traditional LC/MS runs.
Plate Express™ is a device that provides a simple, automated means of obtaining mass spectra directly from TLC plates, combined with the Advion Interchim Scientific® expression® CMS (Compact Mass Spectrometer) creating a technique known as TLC/CMS. Using this technique chemists can quickly and confidently identify products even in complex mixtures without additional sample preparation.
By decoupling the separation from the analysis, medicinal chemists can quickly analyze a developed TLC plate for answers in seconds. Not only less time-consuming, the process is much lower cost, with significantly less solvent consumption.
