This New York based global supplier of laboratory equipment has expanded its inventory with new LC-MS Solvents from Fisher Chemical, a part of Thermo Fisher Scientific. Formulated for UHPLC-UV applications, these solvents are mostly used in HPLC and LCMS systems in research labs, drug-testing labs, environmental labs, and the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical, environmental and food safety industries.

The Fisher Chemical LC-MS Solvents that have been newly added to Block Scientific’s portfolio are:

• Acetonitrile OPTIMA LC/MS, Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 x 4L: Ideal mobile phase for LC-MS and UHPLC-UV applications in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical, environmental and food safety industries.
• Isopropanol (IPA), OPTIMA, Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 x 4L: High purity mobile phase for HPLC and extraction solvent. They are screened for fluorescing and UV-absorbing contaminants to reduce interferences for smoother baselines. They also meets ACS specifications and are intended for research use only.
• Methanol OPTIMA LC/MS, Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 x 4L: HPLC mobile phase for analytical and preparative separations, and are suitable for gradient and isocratic conditions.
• Water, OPTIMA LC/MS, Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 x 4L

Fisher Chemical’s high-purity solvents are suited for a wide range of laboratory applications. The most commonly used solvents or solvent blends include LC-MS grade water and Acetonitrile, with ion pairing agents such as trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), formic acid (FA) or heptafluorobuteric acid (HFBA). They are available as single component formulations or convenient blends and have been validated using Thermo Scientific™ Mass Spectrometers. Other benefits of LC-MS solvents include:

• High purity—processed, filtered and sealed to help extend LC-MS column life
• Stable—store for more than one year at room temperature
• More choices—solvents and solvent blends to meet a variety of applications/needs
