MOBILion reveals next-gen high-res mass spec approach poised to disrupt industry

Closely-held MOBILion Systems has announced a novel, next-generation high-resolution mass spectrometry approach for complex sample analysis, delivering unprecedented speed, sensitivity, specificity, and quantitative accuracy across proteomics, lipidomics, and metabolomics workflows.

In a comprehensive white paper, MOBILion outlines how harnessing the capabilities of its proprietary structures for lossless ion manipulation (SLIM)-based high-resolution ion mobility (HRIM) technology enables fragmentation analysis at unprecedented speeds, increasing throughput five-fold, detecting low-abundance signals with near 100% ion utilization efficiency, and providing unmatched precision in the identification of complex biomolecules.

In a statement, Melissa Sherman, Ph.D., CEO of MOBILion, said, “This is a pivotal development for MOBILion that we have been building toward since MOBILion’s inception. Replacing slow, inefficient, lossy quadrupole isolation with high-resolution mobility separation provides unmatched speed and peak capacity and represents a paradigm shift in mass spectrometry, one that will redefine the industry for decades to come and open doors to untold scientific discoveries across countless disciplines.”

“Initially targeting the field of proteomics, our new approach aims to deliver faster methods and greater coverage, achieving speed, specificity, and sensitivity without compromise,” she added.
