Cerno unveils mass spec breakthroughs at ASMS Meeting
Cerno will present new data on its universal mass spectrometry software at the American Society of Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) Annual Meeting in Baltimore MD.
The Cerno team will also demonstrate their MassWorks and GC/ID software and meet with conference attendees at booth #121.
“Across a wide range of industries, there is a need to accurately separate closely located mass spec signals for more confident qualitative analysis and accurate quantitation,” said Yongdong Wang, Chief Executive Officer, Founder and President of Cerno.
“However, accessibility to the technology needed for this is challenging, due to its prohibitive cost and complexity. At ASMS, we will present how Cerno’s software uniquely addresses this challenge, delivering accurate deconvolution that works with any mass spectrometer.”
Details of the poster presentations are as follows:
Title: Combining Accurate Mass from High Resolution and Spectral Accuracy from Lower Resolution Towards Unique Elemental Composition Determination
Date: Thursday 5 June
This poster demonstrates the use of Cerno’s software to integrate HiRes and LowRes measurements into a single analysis, towards unique elemental composition assignments for unknowns.
Title: Accurate Mass Full Spectral Monitoring and Analysis of Both the Analyte and Reference Standard with Ion Chromatography – Mass Spectrometry
Date: Thursday 5 June
This poster highlights the challenges of ion chromatography–mass spectrometry (IC/MS) for the detection of ions in complex sample matrices, which often interfere with target analytes. MS of much higher resolution is typically required to resolve these interferences, which are often expensive or difficult to implement.
It introduces a method that works with existing LowRes MS and provides accurate mass assignment to aid in the qualitative identification of ions involved and the ability to deconvolute and spectrally resolve mutually interfering ions, including isotope-labelled internal standards for more accurate quantitation.
