Waters Corporation introduces integrated hi-res LC-MS system

US-based Waters Corporation has introduced the Waters BioAccord System with ACQUITY Premier, a combination of the Waters BioAccord System and the breakthrough ACQUITY Premier UPLC with MaxPeak High Performance Surface (HPS) technology. The integrated high-resolution LC-MS system simplifies multi-attribute monitoring of biotherapeutics by improving analyte recovery and assay-toassay reproducibility so that regulated laboratories can get needed medicines to patients faster. The compact, benchtop BioAccord System with ACQUITY Premier features MaxPeak HPS technology and the SmartMS-enabled ACQUITY RDa mass detector allowing analysts of all abilities to monitor critical quality attributes of biotherapeutics and assess the processes that make them, all while decreasing risk, thanks to compliant-ready acquisition and data workflows that deliver consistent data quality from user-to-user and system-to-system. MaxPeak HPS technology is a hybrid organic/ inorganic surface technology that forms a barrier between the sample and the biocompatible metal surfaces of both the UPLC inlet and column. With automated setup and guided workflows made possible with SmartMS technology, the BioAccord System with ACQUITY Premier is designed for easy deployment.
