MS platform In other news from the industry, Sciex has announced the launch of the new X-Series mass spectrometry (MS) platform. T e platform introduces a new industrial design and is comprised of customised models, each with improved, easy-to-use software, methods and libraries custom- designed for targeted customer applications. T e fi rst model, the X500R, was designed exclusively for routine food, environmental and forensic testing labs, based on extensive customer input. High-resolution MS (HRMS) technology is still not widely adopted by routine testing labs due to a lack of both robustness and software adapted to their needs, making operation challenging and delivering complex and often unreliable results. T e X500R overcomes

Raman is a particularly attractive method for the fast, quantitative analysis of bulk material homogeneity. Raman off ers benefi ts for applications such as tablet dose and blend uniformity.


these inadequacies with workfl ows that are easy to deploy for routine labs in a system balanced for high performance, ease of use and reliability, so labs can adopt high resolution MS to collect clear, confi dent results without making performance trade-off s. T e X-Series family delivers intelligent, comprehensive models. Each system is designed to meet the specifi c needs of targeted end users. T e X-Series is driven by Sciex OS software, a redesigned operating software boasting a single, simple user interface to acquire data, process and review results, and produce easy-to-understand reports. T e breadth of data acquisition capabilities has been extended to include SWATH Acquisition, MRM acquisition, information dependent high-resolution MS acquisition (IDA), and high-speed MS/MS scanning. T e ease of serviceability will ensure uninterrupted operation of the instrument and maximise uptime for the lab. T e system is designed to keep pace with a lab’s growth and will evolve as the lab’s needs evolve.


A hot topic Recent news from Ocean Optics was the launch of its Flame spectrometer line, which delivers high thermal stability and low unit-to- unit variation without compromising the fl exibility and confi gurability that are the


hallmark of modular, miniature spectrometers. Features such as interchangeable slits, indicator LEDs and simpler device connectors provide great fl exibility for a wide range of UV-Vis applications including OEM integration and lab, industrial and fi eld use. T e Flame is fully


confi gurable across the 190- 1,100nm wavelength range for use in absorbance, transmission, refl ectance, irradiance and colour applications. Spectrometers come preconfi gured or custom confi gured, with interchangeable slits that enable users to adjust resolution and throughput on demand. For example, the user can reconfi gure the same spectrometer from high resolution for absorbance to high throughput for fl uorescence in seconds. To further increase measurement power, the Flame works seamlessly with the Ocean Optics range of light sources, optical fi bres, sampling accessories and software. Optical bench improvements and high precision alignment methods elevate Flame performance for demanding applications in industrial and fi eld environments. T e Flame has thermal stability of 0.05 nm/°C from 200-850nm and highly consistent unit-to-unit performance that meets the needs of OEMs and other high-volume customers. Its small footprint (89 x 63 x 34mm) and low weight (265g) make the product ideal for OEM integration.
