Agilent oil mist filter for Duo 2.5 rotary pump (blue plastic casing with a white filter element)

#TeamMassSpec! Your E2M1.5/Duo 2.5 pump hates having a blocked oil mist filter. It makes your pump feel lousy, run a fever, and the back pressure damages its seals.

Fix: Spectrometrics value pack: a year's supply: cheaper than one of these Agilent originals

This month saw the end of Windows 10, but if you’re one of the labs with a 5973N MSD stuck in a Windows 7 time warp, now is the right time to invest in a backup Windows 7 PC as an insurance policy before compatible PCs all end up in the scrap heap in the sky.

Capillary supercritical fluids chromatography-mass spectrometry (SFC-MS) system comprising SFC (cream & blue box shaped instrument) and Agilent 5977 MSD (cream and charcoal grey box)

We designed the MSSoftVent™ for SFC-EI-MS where we routinely shut the instrument down after a sequence has finished.

#TeamMassSpec: we’ve developed the MSSoftVent that lets you shut down your #MassSpec to save energy, but keep it under backing vacuum for rapid start up.

If you want to upgrade to a PAL3, we do these too - and ours aren’t locked to the vendor!

PAL Classic autosampler (ribbed body) configured for headspace and liquid injection

🇬🇧 🇮🇪- Do you have a vintage PAL or GERSTEL MPS? Did You can upgrade to a certified pre-owned PAL-xt (single or dual head) for a fraction of the cost of a new PAL3, and to keep the costs down further, you can reuse your existing objects.

The calibration/QC standard savings are actually higher because new standards only have to be brought into use half as often.

It’s essentially a straight scale down without a full revalidation. For MCERTS or GxP, there are potentially further savings in electricity use, up to 10x improvements in detection limits and delivery of higher sample throughput that could be delivered through change control or an NS30 validation.

Zivak multitasker robot for clinical and forensic toxicology assays

Zivak’s Multitasker takes control of the data analysis in CE-IVD workflows, saving you the cost of a CE-IVD LC-MS. This means that in many countries, you can use the standard (research) version of your #MassSpec. Get the Robot + MassSpec for less than the CE-IVD LC-MS!

We supply the hardware/software/firmware - you need to supply/source the #woofware

And it’s not just GC-MS and LC-MS: Just-in-time (or offline PrepAhead for consistent post-prep hold-times) can also be done for NMR (best with short, 100mm tubes). Bruker (and less expensive 3rd parties) do options for high-field and benchtop instruments.

Metabolomics prep-station (rail based sampler with trays, wash stations and incubators) for just-in-time MOX-TMS GC-MS Metabolomics

Did you know you can miss (less stable) metabolites, or their derivatives with batch prep? They’re filtered out in your preprocessing. Just-in-time metabolomics preserves them, boosting feature retention & biomarker discovery.
