Think GC/MS Couldn t Get Any Better? Think Again! Maggie Ostrowski, PhD & Rebecca Veeneman, PhD Think GC/MS Couldn t Get Any Better? Think Again! June 7, 2017
Introducing Intuvo 9000 GC System A completely re-imagined integrated system of GC consumables, MS services and software New paradigm streamlining the way GC is done Better Business Outcome
An Ideal Partner for Mass Spectrometry Guard chip protection of column and MS ion source Retention time stability after changing guard chip Easy and reliable backflush Leak-free click-and-run connections Fast direct heating and cooling
Innovating a New Path to GC Productivity A whole new way to GC Direct heating
Innovating a New Path to GC Productivity A whole new way to GC No-trim column Direct heating
Innovating a New Path to GC Productivity A whole new way to GC Ferrule-free click-and-run connections No-trim column Direct heating
Innovating a New Path to GC Productivity A whole new way to GC Disposable Guard chip Ferrule-free click-and-run connections No-trim column Direct heating
Innovating a New Path to GC Productivity A whole new way to GC Modular Intuvo flow chips Disposable Guard chip Ferrule-free click-and-run connections No-trim column Direct heating
Innovating the GC Flow Path Conventional flow path Intuvo flow path Inlet Inlet Click-and-run direct connections Guard chip Gold seal Nuts and ferrules To detector Flow chip Classic capillary column Intuvo planar column To detector
Click-and-Run Direct Connections Eliminating connection uncertainty No more ferrules Direct face seal connections Audible and tactile click lets you know connection is made Easier to train Less unplanned downtime Fewer batch reruns and precious samples lost
Autonomous Leak Checking Avoiding unplanned downtime Microfluidic-enabled 6 th generation EPC modules allow hands-free leak checking to confirm and document leak-free operation autonomously.
Fast Direct Heating and Cooling Every single minute counts Fast, efficient heating Ballistic cooling Smaller footprint

lidocaine bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate methylparaben polyparaben methylparaben polyparaben lidocaine bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate Complex Samples Can Be Easily Evaluated Film Lidocaine patch A 5% lidocaine transdermal patch and the film was extracted in dichloromethane Paraben A, paraben B, lidocaine (active ingredient), and a terephthalate was found in both samples via extracted ion chromatograms
GC-MS Systems Are Hindered by Maintenance 1. Vent MS (wait for system to cool and reach acceptable vacuum levels) 2. Replace liner and trim column 3. Pump down MS 4. Air and water check 5. Verify chromatogram 6. Re-lock retention times 7. Return to running samples

I m going to be late Oh no! Why? Maintenance on the GC-MS Ok. See you when you get here. I ll let you know when I m on my way

Intuvo Systems Simplify Maintenance 1. Press maintenance button 2. Replace liner and guard chip 3. Air and water check 4. Verify chromatogram 5. Return to running samples
Replacing the Guard Chip Does Not Affect Retention Times
What about the MSD? JetClean Self-cleaning ion source Patented Consistent response for months or even years Reduces or eliminates the downtime for manual source cleaning Available on single and triple quad GC/MS systems, including Intuvo
JetClean Scrubs Away Contamination Contamination example After JetClean JetClean eliminates heavy contamination from the lens
JetClean for PAH Analysis 62 PAHs, archetypally difficult Range 1-10,000pg/μl, R 2 >0.998 Non-reactive, nonpolar compound classes are generating exceptional results in the Acquire & Clean operational mode 5% of true values, over many months Mean limits of LODs 1.02 +/- 0.82 pg/μl
