Increased sensitivity and specificity challenges:
Fewer molecules in
equal volume of analyte
WHYis it harder to
quantify large molecules?
WHYare biotherapeutics
more important than ever?
HOW can Waters help?
Optimize specificity of sample prep
Oasis®
MAX and WCX SPE µElution Plates help achieve high recovery and low limits
of detection for a wide range of endogenous, therapeutic and surrogate peptides.
Wide mass range, reliable sensitivity
The Xevo®
family of tandem quadrupole mass spectrometers delivers
high sensitivity at high and low mass, detecting all fragments without
compromise, while sensitivity at high m/z enhances specificity.
Improved microfluidics for
better sensitivity and reduced sample load
The ionKey/MS™ System integrates the UPLC analytical separation directly
into the source of the mass spectrometer, delivering significant increases in
sensitivity, solvent savings, and reductions in sample volume.
Increasing sensitivity through LC optimization

IMPROVEMENT IN
SENSITIVITY
More LC and MS parameters to
consider reduces efficiency
Complex sample prep means
possible loss of analyte

Analyzing large molecules may be one
of the greatest challenges that the
bioanalyst faces at the beginning
of the 21st century.
PEPTIDES AND PROTEINS
ARE NOT SMALL MOLECULES.

300 Å,
ACQUITY UPLC CSH, and CORTECS®
