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
