Shimadzu’s high-resolution accurate-mass quadrupole time-of-flight LCMS-9030 used in conjunction with PREMIER Biosoft’s SimLipid and SimGlycan software solutions will allow scientists to perform rapid identification and quantitation of lipids and glycans from complex biological mixtures in high-throughput mode, the firms said. The joint workflows will alleviate the challenges that scientists have been facing in the fields of lipidomics and glycomics.

“The advancement in mass spectrometry technology fuels the development of lipidomics and glycomics methods,”

said Ichiro Hirano, LCMS Product Manager, Shimadzu Corporation.

“Shimadzu’s new Q-TOF technology offers a high level of sensitivity, selectivity and precision, thereby enabling researchers to develop shotgun- and LC-MS workflows for targeted and untargeted lipidomics and glycomics using the advanced lipid and glycan identification and quantitation capabilities provided by PREMIER Biosoft’s SimLipid and SimGlycan software solutions.”

Arun Apte, CEO at PREMIER Biosoft, added,

“Our software products directly read raw data from Shimadzu’s LCMS-9030 instrument, providing seamless data integration, accurate and efficient identification of lipids and glycans, their subsequent quantitation, and finally enabling downstream statistical and pathways analysis.”
