About this Event

Join us before the Dinner Lecture from 6 pm to 6:30 pm for a Happy Half Hour of networking and fun!

The lecture, presented by Autumn Payne, will cover learnings and insights of the newly released QSight500 UHPLC-triple quadrupole system, focusing on StayCleanTM technology that allows for increased robustness, better ion transmission, less contamination buildup and less required maintenance. StayCleanTM Ion Source is designed to handle increased matrix components while overcoming contamination buildup and avoiding subsequent interferences. The instrument performance will be highlighted by a variety of studies testing for robustness, and applications that Perkin Elmer has successfully implemented, including pesticide/herbicide/fungicide analysis and PFAS analysis in a variety of dirty matrices.
