SIFT-MS provides rapid analysis of volatiles that indicate non-conformance of foods and ingredients.  This webinar describes how SIFT-MS can be employed in both targeted and untargeted operational modes to achieve high-throughput detection of product defects.

Watch this webinar to hear the behind-the-scenes story of how Anatune’s passion for automating routine testing coupled with Dr Mark Perkins’ outstanding technical skills took SIFT-MS from manual to automated laboratory analysis. Mark shares how combining Syft Technologies’ SIFT-MS with the GERSTEL multipurpose sampler creates a high-throughput analysis solution for volatiles.

This brochure outlines several SIFT-MS solutions that provide protection for employees and the general public including fumigant and toxic chemical detection, border security and customs, chemical warfare agent identification, and indoor air safety.

In this webinar, we describe:

• Why early detection of gastro-esophageal cancers is so challenging
• Research utilizing SIFT-MS, with potential screening applications
• Future external validation work using Thermal Desorption-SIFT-MS

This brochure outlines several SIFT-MS based breath and medical research solutions provided by Syft Technologies.  Real-time results are provided to diverse breath and microbial research applications, including non-invasive population screening, breath VOCs monitoring, and the rapid identification of microorganisms by their VOC fingerprints.

SH-SIFT-MS provides an instrument-based odor rating technique for the analysis of diverse odor compounds – such as short-chain organic acids, aldehydes and reduced sulfur compounds. Throughput of at least 12 samples per hour can be achieved using this method.

SIFT-MS provides online AMC monitoring solutions for Fab environmental control.  Detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and inorganic acids instantly with trace level sensitivity. Learn how SIFT-MS provides real-time detection of airborne molecular contaminants through a single instrument solution.  Never miss a contamination event again.

This webinar describes the use of SIFT-MS for air quality monitoring and describes a case study of its application during an air quality monitoring campaign in Hanoi, Vietnam.  We are joined by Dr. Marvin Shaw of the National Center of Atmospheric Science, UK who discusses the results of this study. 

In this application note, SIFT-MS is evaluated for odor source characterization at a gelatin factory, together with benchmarking of the effectiveness of an ultraviolet (UV) photolysis technology used for odor mitigation. SIFT-MS is very effective in both applications due to its wide dynamic range, trace-level sensitivity, real-time detection, and lack of requirement for sample prep or pre-concentration.

In this application note, we demonstrate high-throughput analysis of BTEX compounds in air, water and soil.  We demonstrate how SIFT-MS enables excellent differentiation of the ethylbenzene isomer from the xylene isomers using known O2+ reagent ion chemistry for both air and water.  This approach can be applied in real-time and in high throughput applications.

Quantitative ethylene oxide analysis in Polysorbate 80 excipient is greatly simplified using SIFT-MS, with a time to first test result that is eight-fold faster than the current compendial method and a daily sample throughput that is 9- to 14-fold higher.

Learn about direct mass spectrometry by SIFT-MS which provides real-time, quantitative analysis of volatile compounds with trace-level sensitivity.  There are also no requirements of chromatography, pre-concentration, or sample prep!  SIFT-MS is easy to use and interpret data.
