LC-MS


Training: Bioanalytical LC-MS

Who should take this course?
This course is designed to provide basic knowledge and practical applications of LC-MS to the analysis of drugs in metabolites in biological extracts. Although no previous experience with HPLC is necessary, the course will be especially valuable to those with some chromatography experience.

What does it cover?
"Bioanalytical LC-MS” is a two-day course explaining the principles of mass spectrometric detection, the design and operation of mass spectrometers, and the interfacing of the MS to the liquid chromatograph to obtain both qualitative and quantitative data. This two-day course covers:

  • MS operation, including the operation of the most popular LC-MS interfaces
  • How a quadrupole mass filter works
  • MS calibration and optimization
  • Ion production, fragmentation and detection
  • Operation in MS, MS-MS and MS-MS-MS modes
  • Structure determination by product ion analysis
  • Quantitative analysis
  • Method development and validation
  • Techniques to get the most from your LC-MS

What will I get from this course?
You will learn how a mass spectrometer works, the advantages (and limitations) of adding mass spectrometric detection to your liquid chromatographic analyses, and how to use MS to approach separation and detection problems intractable by other methods. By understanding the central roles of the LC-MS interface and the molecular ion, you will have a solid grounding on which to further build your LC-MS expertise.

This course is normally taught as an in-house course. To discuss in-house course options, call (800) 379-5221 or send us an e-mail with a brief description of your training needs, and we'll call you with details.
