Application Fields

LDTD is the perfect high throughput technology for the quantitative analysis of a myriad of compounds regardless of their polarity and melting point.  The LDTD has been successfully used to analyze compounds in blood, plasma, urine, human liver microsomes, biological buffers, drinking water, sludge, sediment, dairy milk, honey and many more.

Pharmaceutical

In early drug discovery, a drug candidate needs to be characterized for critical go or no go decision making. In early drug discovery process the Adsorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and Toxicology (ADMET) evaluation within a living organism need to be address. Therefore, technology increasing the analytical throughput for such analysis is essential as up to now the bottleneck process is the LC-MS/MS analysis. By using the LDTD for ADMET studies, you will perform one analysis each 4 seconds increasing dramatically your throughput compared to your current LC-MS/MS method of analysis. Moreover, many more applications, such as pharmacokinetic studies, can beneficiate from this analytical speed.

Contract Research Organization

In a world where productivity means higher throughput, all laboratories would like to work with a technology providing an analysis 10 to 100 times faster than their current LC-MS/MS system.  Drug quantification in plasma sample can be as fast as 4 seconds per sample without compromising your accuracy.

Toxicology

With the LDTD, your What if... is transformed in What's next !

What if you could perform drug of abuse testing in less than 4 seconds per sample...  This is exactly what the LDTD can do on a day-to-day basis.  Drug testing in urine and plasma is achieved using a LDTD ionization source and is 50 times faster than any data published.  Fast screening combined to accurate quantification results will allow your laboratory to increase your analytical capacity and reduce your turn over time.

Environment

Being "green by nature", LDTD and environmental analysis is a natural match.  BTEX analysis in urban air, endocrine disrupting chemicals and antibiotics identification in surface water show how the LDTD can perform trace analysis in environmental matrix.

Food

In a world where quality control and health issues are so important to our society, very fast methods for food characterization are needed.  The food industry has its own problems to ensure protection for everyone.  Complex matrix such as food is quite a challenge to any analytical system.  The robustness of the LDTD and its speed are up to the plate for this kind of challenge allowing, for example, the analysis of dairy milk and honey for antibiotics residue without extensive sample preparation.
