Platforms - LC-MS/MS Solutions
Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is a powerful analytical technique that combines the separating power of liquid chromatography with the highly sensitive and selective mass analysis capability of triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. The strength of this technique lies in the separation power of LC for a wide range of compounds combined with the capability of the MS to quantify compounds with a high degree of sensitivity and selectivity based on the unique mass/charge (m/z) transitions of each compound of interest.
KCAS has unparalleled experience with LC-MS/MS
