Interview

Please introduce your study and your role in your lab.

My job profile is to identify, isolate and characterize the known and unknown impurities present in drug substance and drug product.

What is the purpose of usage of Shimadzu LCMS-8030?

We are using shimadzu LCMS 8030 for quantitation of genotoxic impurities, and identification of unknown impurities. Also to carry out the method validations of the developed methods.

How many people in your lab are using LCMS-8030? How often?

Three people from my lab are using LCMS-8030 everyday.

What was the reason to choose Nexera as front-end LC?

Nexera is only UHPLC with pressure limit is up to 19000 psi, so we can work on lower partical size column comfortably, this is giving us flexibility to play with run times and resolution. Also we can use regular pressure LC to ultra high-pressure LC without changing the flow cell. The system is also ideally suited as a front end for LC-MS applications. Column oven CTO-30A is sufficient for handling small columns and giving uniform temperature through the length of column.

What are the advantages and benefits of LCMS-8030?

MRM/SIM method optimization is very easy in this instrument. Since we use Nexera as front end, the analysis time is very short, and accordingly we can appreciate the fast analysis of LCMS-8030. This enables us to analyse number of sample in day.

How was the ease of method development ?

Method development is very easy. Automatic MRM gives all the possibilities of MRM pair with the best option. Method development is fully automated - just put the sample and run the mass spectrometer, you will get the results!

Please let us know your impression about Software?

The software is user-friendly.

Please let us know your idea about the needs to be improved, added and enhanced for LCMS-8030.

May be column oven can be re-designed to give high temperature with longer columns.

Please let us know your requests for Shimadzu technology, products and service.

We are using multiple technologies from Shimadzu like HPLC, IR, UV, Nexera and LCMS. The service and support from Shimadzu and its allies is very good and prompt, and helps us keep a minimum downtime.
