Quadrupole Time of Flight MS Bioanalysis Testing

The Quadrupole Time of Flight (QToF) Mass Spectrometry (MS) bioanalytical testing service is a sophisticated analytical method designed to provide highly accurate and sensitive measurements for the quantification and characterization of small molecules in biological matrices. This technology leverages advanced mass spectrometric techniques capable of resolving complex mixtures, making it an indispensable tool in pharmaceutical research and development.

The QToF MS system operates by ionizing samples through electrospray or matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), followed by separation based on the time-of-flight (TOF) principle. This method allows for precise determination of molecular weights, structural elucidation, and quantitative analysis with high precision.

The service is particularly valuable in drug discovery and development stages where detailed knowledge about metabolites, impurities, and drug-related substances is crucial. It supports the identification and quantification of compounds in various biological matrices such as blood plasma, urine, serum, or cell culture media.

Our QToF MS bioanalytical testing service uses state-of-the-art equipment that complies with international standards like ISO 17025 for method validation. The system is capable of handling a wide range of analytes from small organic compounds to peptides and proteins, ensuring comprehensive coverage for diverse pharmaceutical applications.

In addition to its analytical capabilities, this service also ensures compliance with regulatory requirements such as FDA and EMA guidelines. Our team of experts works closely with clients to ensure that all testing protocols adhere strictly to these standards, providing reliable data that can be used confidently in regulatory submissions.

The QToF MS bioanalysis is especially useful for:

  • Quantification of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and metabolites
  • Detection and quantification of impurities at trace levels
  • Characterization of protein modifications such as glycosylation or phosphorylation
  • Identification of novel compounds in biopharmaceutical products

Why It Matters

The importance of accurate and reliable bioanalytical testing cannot be overstated, especially within the pharmaceutical industry. Ensuring that drug candidates meet stringent quality standards is paramount to their success in clinical trials and eventual market approval.

By employing QToF MS technology, we are able to provide unparalleled sensitivity and selectivity in our analyses. This ensures that even minute quantities of compounds can be detected accurately, which is critical for understanding how drugs behave within the body. Accurate quantification helps in optimizing dosages and identifying potential safety issues early on.

Furthermore, this service supports the development of safer and more effective treatments by providing detailed information about drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics. This knowledge allows pharmaceutical companies to make informed decisions regarding product formulation and efficacy.
