The power of new analytics flaunted in laboratory-on-wheels

A complete LC/MS/MS laboratory-on-wheels will tour America next month flaunting the power of new-generation analytic tools for food safety, environmental analysis, clinical research, forensic toxicology and small molecule and peptide quantitation.

The MASS-tastic Voyage Tour will start at Pittcon in Orlando, and can be tracked online throughout the 30-city North American tour. Highlights of the tour can be watched at www.masstasticvoyage.com, and include many analytical highlights.

Integrated, Laboratory Workflows On-the-Go will showcase the ability of state-of-the-art technology for identifying food contaminants and chemicals quickly, accurately and with ultra-high sensitivity.

The Rapid Response Unit on the Road will specifically address food safety issues, and hold talks to answer questions about challenging analyses across LC and GC workflows. There will also be a Rapid Response Solutions Bar, where customers can submit technical questions to the AB SCIEX/Phenomenex Rapid Response Unit experts.

Finally, the Educational Information Exchange will address not just the science community but the next generation of scientists. Regional students can use this facility as well as those tracking the tour online.

Sky Countryman, manager of applied markets, Phenomenex said: "The MASS-tastic Voyage mobile lab tour combines the best solutions from AB SCIEX, the leader in mass spectrometry, and Phenomenex, the leader in separation science, to meet laboratory challenges head-on with the latest advancements in technology and integrated solutions."
