HPLC-MS/MS and MFLC-MS/MS chromatograms from the analysis of a 1.5 µL injection of a 5.00 ng/mL Propranolol solution on an AB SCIEX QTRAP® 5500

Notice band broadening on this first “prototype” MFLC ESI source

MFLC-MS/MS IN REGULATED BIOANALYSIS

• Can MFLC-MS/MS methods be validated?

• Are the MFLC-MS/MS methods rugged?

• Do the MFLC-MS/MS method results compare well to HPLC-MS/MS methods?

METHOTREXATE (MTX)

• MW = 454

• Used in treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases,ectopic pregnancy

•Alturas previously validated a LC-MS/MS method in human plasma from 1-500 ng/mL

•Acetonitrile precipitation

FUTURE OF LC-MS/MS: COUPLING THE MS SOURCE AND MFLC

Why? Because it works! – simplifies LC-MS

Natural progression of coupling analytical techniques

Less connections-less band broadening

Source is column heater No switching valve needed to

divert waste SAMPLING ADVANTAGE

PicoFuze™ - Future of the LC-MS Source

4.6 mm ID, 1.0 ml/min, split, 100 µL injections

2.1 mm ID, 0.4 ml/min, 40 µL injections

<1.0 mm ID, <100 µl/min, 1-10 µL injections

<0.3 mm ID, <10 µl/min, 1-2 µL injections

But wait, I can improve LLOQ by injecting more on my 2.1 mm ID and I can only inject 1-10 µL on my MFLC!!

AlturasAnalytics.com The LC/MS ExpertsTM

Consumer Driven “Convenience”!

Ease of use is “HIGH PERFORMANCE!”

Inject less volume with better signal for MFLC gives “peace of mind” – SAMPLING

ADVANTAGE

AlturasAnalytics.com The LC/MS ExpertsTM

OTHER BENEFITS OF MFLC-MS/MS

• Reduced source contamination due to less flow and lower injection volumes

• More up time-increased PRODUCTIVITY• No need for a switching valve… -increased EFFICIENCY

• Reduced matrix effects?• Develop methods faster?• Less potential failures?

• Saves solvent – “Goes Green”• 5 mL of organic mobile phase per day at 24/7 operation

(normally 500 mL!) -increased EFFICIENCY

More research needed….

AlturasAnalytics.com The LC/MS ExpertsTM

CONCLUSION: MFLC-MS/MS AND PICOFUZE™ BUZZ WORDS

It works! – “Ease of use is high performance”

“Peace of mind” – More injections per sample due to increased sensitivity – SAMPLING ADVANTAGE

“Plug and play” – minimal optimization for transferring methods from conventional LC or MFLC

Efficient, Productive and Convenient – “Source is the column, column is the source”

Less connections-less band broadening, easier to use Source is column heater No switching valve needed to divert waste

AlturasAnalytics.com The LC/MS ExpertsTM

CONCLUSION

MFLC-MS/MS and PicoFuze™ -MS/MS coupled chromatography and MS will continue to develop

More research needed Expand user base, DATA, DATA, DATA APCI??? Vendors develop HPLC pumps that work for micro and

conventional flows in the same pump Cost of “source column” should compete with cost of

HPLC column
