This poster describes various measures and options for maximised LC-MS sensitivity and low Limit of Detection (LOD ) by avoiding contaminations causing signal suppression, adduct formation and increased background noise or spectrum complexity:

  • Selection and handling of HPLC columns
  • Choice and cleaning of laboratory equipment (bottles, vessels, funnels etc.)
  • Choice and proper processing of solvents and additives
