Pharmaceuticals: Impurity Analysis and Degradation Studies

Impurity profiling of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is an essential part of drug development. To ensure the safety and quality of the API, it is critical to characterize the degradation pathways and the impact of storage conditions on the drug product.

The SmartMS-enabled ACQUITY RDa Detector quickly generates high quality accurate mass datasets in busy and diverse labs, providing confidence in your data.

Natural Product Screening

Natural product isolates in a research setting require a streamlined screening workflow for rapid identification, while any commercially supplied natural products claiming therapeutic properties must adhere to rigorous characterization and quality control criteria enforced by regulatory agencies.

The ACQUITY RDa Detector enables researchers and manufacturers to generate data with confidence to screen product isolates/extracts with great accuracy, or adhere to the regulatory standards for purity and contamination assessment of raw materials. This delivers rapid natural product analysis with integrated library searching functionality using simple, end-to-end workflows.

Food & Environmental: Assessing Food Integrity

Consumers, more than ever before, are interested in how their food is grown, processed and brought to market. This continues to put demands not only on the regulators to protect consumers, but also on food business operators to maintain their brand reputation.

The ACQUITY RDa Detector offers a powerful combination of high efficiency UPLC separations with SmartMS technology and intuitive software for data processing and review, enabling labs to screen sample extracts for possible contamination and/or fraud.

Simplifying Walk-up Accurate Mass Confirmation Studies

Combining the ACQUITY RDa Detector with SpectralWorks’ RemoteAnalyzer® offers busy analytical labs a complete walk-up accurate mass confirmation solution.

With the ACQUITY RDa Detector’s SmartMS technology and intuitive RemoteAnalyzer software, scientists in academic institutes and industries performing walk-up mass measurements can access an effective solution for small molecule accurate mass confirmation studies.

The RemoteAnalyzer software operates through a web-based browser for sample submission, acquisition processing, and reporting, while the simplified user interface provides control to the administrator.
