Data acquisition system for triple quadrupole mass spectrometers enables 21 CFR Part 11 compliance and offers a digital, secure, bi-directional interface with specialised protocol-driven Lims
Thermo Electron continues to expand its software offerings for its Finnigan TSQ Quantum series of triple quadrupole mass spectrometers with its new, improved LCQuan 2.5 data acquisition system.
It features a bi-directional interface with Thermo's Watson Lims 7.2.0.01 (laboratory information management system) to provide secure, digital data transfer that is tailored for bioanalysis.
LCQuan 2.5 quantitative software package enables 21 CFR Part 11 compliance (treats electronic records the same as paper records) and includes several additional new features.
These include remote disc support which allows accessing and processing data from secure remote discs; a workbook-style, centralised file location that ensures fast, easy data archiving and retrieval of relevant project files; a one-window, quantitation environment that features a step-by-step workflow process for easy data acquisition and review; and a digital, secure, bi-directional interface with Watson Lims.
Thermo's Watson Lims is a highly specialised protocol-driven system that supports DMPK/bioanalytical studies in drug development and is used by the leading global pharmaceutical, biotechnology and contract research organisations.
The Finnigan TSQ Quantum series, an advanced range of triple quadrupole mass spectrometers, offers outstanding and reliable performance under the most extreme conditions while meeting the demands of the growing regulatory bioanalytical environment says Thermo.
The Finnigan TSQ Quantum series also features H-SRM, which enables significant reduction of matrix-induced co-eluters with nominal masses, thereby significantly reducing chemical noise.
Additional features include a robust Ion Max source with H-ESI.
