Shimadzu Opens New Mass Spectrometry / Biotech Applications Laboratory

15-Nov-2005

Shimadzu Scientific Instruments, Inc. announces the opening of its new Mass Spectrometry/Biotech Applications laboratory at its headquarters in Maryland. Part of Shimadzu´s Global Customer Support Centers, the lab is intended to enhance U.S. customer support, serve as the central U.S. facility for developing methods and systems, and conduct R&D in collaboration with academic and industrial organizations.

Scientists in the lab are exposed to advances in equipment as soon as they are available, and can give feedback and commentary based on their real-world experiences. The new lab includes Shimadzu´s award winning LCMS-IT-TOF, its Prominence HPLC, the LCMS-2010EV, ChIP-1000 Chemical Printer, AccuSpot MALDI Plate Spotter, Axima-CFR MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometer, Xcise Integrated Gel-excision Processor, and a range of other instruments.

One of Shimadzu´s main goals in building the Mass Spectrometry/Biotech Applications laboratory is to actively support research by creating application notes, performing consultations, conducting in-depth demonstration/training sessions, and analyzing customer samples. The five applications chemists at the lab, assisted by technical support personnel in the field, comprise an expert resource for researchers tackling difficult application questions and provide a wide range of customer support options.
