Drug Pharmacokinetics Determined by Real-Time Analysis of Mouse Breath

SUPER SESI-HRMS was used to non-invasively and in real-time monitor the pharmacokinetics of ketamine, propofol, and valproic acid, along with their metabolites in mice. This approach allowed for obtaining real-time pharmacokinetic curves without the need to sacrifice the animals, representing a significant advance in terms of animal welfare and time and cost savings.

The first Super SESI X (SSX) is is fully functional and in service.

With a 0.1 nA precision current monitoring and 100% automatic control, the SSX makes high-performance nano-electrospray truly easy to operate.

We had to adjust the mechanical latches and the sealing because this was the first time we coupled an SSX to a Q Fortis MS. Thanks to Kseniya Dryahina, Patrik Španěl, Radim from Pragolab s.r.o., and the team at the J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry CAS, this was completed in one day, and we were happily acquiring breath and headspace data on the second day :)

Know Your Emitter #1

Identifying the best capillary size

The electrospray (ES) emitter is an essential part of a high-res mass spectrometry system. The quality of the data is linked to a reliable ES. Despite its central importance, this little piece of equipment isn’t well known.

LESSON #1: ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL

Why automate every control of an ion source?

Electrospray provides the best performance, but obtaining a stable signal can be tricky.
The new SUPER SESI-X, designed for the Thermo Orbitrap Exploris series, is fully automatic and is ready to incorporate intelligent control. This source will auto-pilot the electrospray to bring high performance and reliability.
