Fisher Chemical LC-MS Solvents – For High-performance Liquid Chromatography

by Jeremy Linder Lab Equipment Supplier
LC-MS allows clinical labs to easily identify and quantify a wide range of compounds. The article discusses various types of LC-MS solvents from Fisher Chemical. 



An analytical technique commonly used in many applications, LC-MS (Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) allows clinical laboratories to easily identify and quantify a wide range of compounds. Routinely used in sample analysis, LC-MS combines liquid chromatography (LC) with mass spectrometry (MS). High-performance solvents are essential for efficiency in liquid chromatography (HPLC). Leading lab equipment suppliers like Fisher Chemical offer high-quality, high-purity solvents to meet the mandatory purity level of advanced LC-MS systems.

Formulated for UHPLC-UV applications, these solvents are generally used in HPLC and LC-MS systems in clinical and research laboratories, drug-testing labs, environmental labs, and the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and food safety industries. Their unique features include – 

  • Ultra-high purity for more reliable analysis
  • Tested to the highest standards to ensure hassle-free analysis
  • Accurate data and reproducible performance

Optima LC-MS Solvents – Types 

Optima LC-MS solvents ensure consistent, reproducible performance in the mobile phase of LC-MS. Optima LC-MS grade reagents are used as ultra-pure additives in the formulation of solvent blends for the mobile phase of LC-MS applications. There are different types of Fisher Chemical LC-MS Optima solvents - 


               * Formulated for UHPLC-UV
               * Assay: 99.9% min by GC
               * Colorless 
               * High UV transmittance and low evaporation residue
               * Suitable for gradient and isocratic conditions
               * Filtered through a 0.2Glc mum filter to remove particulates

  • Isopropanol (IPA), OPTIMA, Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 x 4L – This solvent is ideal for use in HPLC, GC, plasma/ICP, spectrophotometry, environmental testing and other analytical applications. It is screened for fluorescing and UV-absorbing contaminants to reduce interferences for smoother baselines. This high-purity mobile phase for HPLC and extraction solvent is supplied in specially cleaned bottles and blanketed with inert gas to maintain purity. Other features include – 

               * Meets ACS specifications
               * Intended for research use only
               * Assay ≥99.9%
               * Assay Percent Range - Assay: 99.9% min by GC

  • Methanol (HPLC), Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 x 4L – Meeting ACS specifications, this solvent is filtered through a 0.2μm filter to remove particulates. It comes with HPLC mobile phase for analytical and preparative separations. Other standard features include – 

               * High UV transmittance and low evaporation residue
               * Suitable for gradient and isocratic condition

  • Water Optima, Fisher Chemical, Case of 4 X 4L – This is the ideal mobile phase for LC-MS and UHPLC-UV applications in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical, environmental and food safety industries. Intended for research use only, these solvents are screened for UV-absorbing contaminants to reduce interferences for smoother baselines. Key features include – 

               * Tested for HPLC gradient suitability
               * Mobile phase for analytical and preparative separations
               * Filtered to remove particulates
               * Grade - HPLC Grade, Mobile phase for HPLC applications
               * Vapor Pressure - 17.5mmHg at 20°C
               * Melting Point - 0°C

Each lot of Optima LC-MS solvent is screened for UV-absorbing contaminants at every wavelength in the 200-400nm range to afford smooth baselines, reduced interferences, and increased quality in analyses. The filtration feature provides very low particle content for maximum purity.

Laboratories can place orders for Fisher Chemical Optima LC-MS solvents at leading online laboratory equipment stores.  Partnering with a reliable clinical laboratory equipment dealer in New York would ensure reasonable prices and prompt delivery.
