Mass Spectrometry Solutions for Lab Efficiency and Productivity
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 1, 2018--
Agilent
Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced that it would showcase
its complete range of mass spectrometry solutions at the 66th
American Society for Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) Conference, being held
June 3 through June 7 in San Diego, California. Agilent is known as a
market leader in mass spectrometry, developing powerful and reliable
solutions for diverse applications such as pharmaceutical,
environmental, and clinical research, as well as forensic toxicology,
and food testing.
“ASMS is always a great opportunity for us to demonstrate how Agilent
mass spectrometry solutions continue to redefine what’s possible,” said
Monty Benefiel, vice president and general manager of Agilent’s Mass
Spectrometry Division. “With recent investments in product development
and acquisitions including Genohm, we are well positioned to provide our
customers with solutions that improve the science and economics of their
labs. We look forward to sharing more information at this years’ show.”
ASMS attendees are invited to visit Agilent’s Exhibition Booth #800 at
the San Diego Convention Center and to spend time at the Agilent
Hospitality Suite at the Hilton Bayfront Hotel, Sapphire Ballroom MNIJ,
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 8:00–11:00 p.m. Visitors can
view the latest versions of Agilent’s MassHunter suite of products, and
learn how automated sample prep instruments improve the precision and
reproducibility of mass spec analyses. Agilent CrossLab Services will
also demonstrate how to improve overall lab efficiency with solutions
such as iLab Operations Software, an enterprise web-based management
tool designed to support operations for centralized labs and shared
research resources.
The Agilent Innovation Symposium customer event will be held Saturday,
June 2, from 5:00–9:30 p.m. at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in San Diego.
The keynote speaker Jenny van Eyk, Ph.D., from Cedars-Sinai Medical
Center will discuss how multi-omics data collection can be facilitated
by analyzing metabolomics samples on the same Agilent LC/Q-TOF system
used for proteomics.
The Innovation Symposium will also include presentations from prominent
Agilent customers including Carlos Sepúlveda, General Manager, Agrolab
México; Philip Britz-McKibbin, Ph.D., Professor at McMaster University,
Canada; and Christopher J. Petzold, Ph.D., Director of Functional
Genomics at The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, California.
Breakfast seminars will be held Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings
at the Hilton Bayfront Hotel, from 7:00–8:00 a.m. Highlighting
innovative technology including the Ultivo LC/MS system, and the 6545XT
AdvanceBio LC/Q-TOF system, Agilent scientists will present topics that
range from pesticides and food safety, to the identification of
low-abundant proteins for host cell protein analysis, to the use of
high-resolution spectral analysis to simplify your refinement of targets
for ultra-trace level GC/TQ analysis.
Continuing the tradition of a medical research donation to an
organization that employs mass spectrometry products, this year Agilent
will contribute $50,000 to one of three worthy organizations supporting
cancer research. Conferees are invited to place their votes while
visiting the Agilent Hospitality Suite.
