*By Agnieszka Sitarska*

The mass spec immunoassay (MSIA) workflow was developed to provide a simple, automated process for purification of targeted analytes for downstream detection using multiple analytical techniques, such as mass spectrometry.

*Niederkofler describes benefits of the automated mass spec immunoassay workflow.*

Eric Niederkofler, R&D Manager, Thermo Fisher Scientific, presents an integrated approach using Tecan automated liquid handlers (Freedom EVO® platform) and proprietary Thermo MSIA™ microcolumns. In addition to how the technology works, Mr. Niederkofler presents the benefits and real world customer case studies on insulin and botulinum neurotoxin.
