Waters New Software Enhancements Expand Mass Spectrometry Applications by Automating Data Interrogation and Simplifying Workflow

Waters Corporation introduced eight new MassLynx™ workflow enhancements at the 57th American Society of Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) Conference, designed to enhance laboratory productivity and expand mass spectrometry applications.

“Our new MassLynx workflow enhancements integrate our technologies into market leading solutions,” said Brian Smith, Vice President, Mass Spectrometry Business Operations for the Waters Division. “These software innovations realise the full potential of mass spectrometry across our entire portfolio of LC/MS and GC/MS systems. MassLynx software continuously addresses new analytical challenges, and streamlines existing ones, through advanced data interrogation capabilities and simplified workflow processes.”

Among the eight MassLynx enhancements:

•The POSI±IVE system™ for high throughput screening of complex food safety, water quality and environmental samples by combining qualitative and quantitative processes into one. POSI±IVE uniquely integrates chromatography, exact mass MS and informatics for screening applications.

•Quanpedia, QCMonitor and TrendPlot, critical components of the Xevo™ TQ MS quantitative workflow solution software, are now available for a broader range of Waters mass spectrometers.

•Laboratories will cut sample analysis times and optimise resource utilisation to increase productivity with latest version of OpenLynx™ Open Access.
