Information

Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a relatively new technology in the field of clinical diagnostics. Mass spectrometry provides unparalleled sensitivity and specificity for the analysis of metabolites, particularly in the detection of structurally similar small molecules such as vitamins, steroids, and hormones, where it offers significant advantages.Although LC-MS has been used for newborn screening globally for many years, its application in specialized diagnostics is subject to higher restrictions. Automated operation, user-friendly software, and pre-packaged reagent kits are crucial for the further promotion of LC-MS. With the maturation and commercialization of the technology, improvements in these aspects will enhance the usability and reliability of the equipment, facilitating broader clinical applications and making it an essential tool in clinical diagnostics.
