Minimizing LCMS Artifacts Using Arium® Ultrapure Water Systems

Authors: Charles Prochaska, Dr. Kunal Kureja, Lindsay Morrison & Dr. Izabella Surowiec

Overview

Water quality is critical in liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LCMS) applications. Ultrapure water that meets ASTM Type I specifications is essential for mobile phase preparation, sample dilution, reagent preparation and instrument cleaning. 

Water impurities such as particulates, bacteria and ions can affect chromatographic performance, resulting in poor data quality, overlapping peaks, ghost peaks and column damage. The freshly produced ultrapure water from Arium® Mini UV systems can help you overcome water contamination and unlock the full potential of LCMS analysis.

Find out how Arium® Mini can help minimize LCMS artifacts.
