Your teams need HRMS training ...
What is the principle of HRMS analysis?
High-resolution mass spectrometers (HRMS), with analyzers capable of accessing exact mass such as the time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF) or Orbitrap, are used to quantify organic contaminants. The performance of analyzers is compared by their resolution power, defined as the ability to produce signals that can be distinguished for two peaks with close masses.
The ability to distinguish ions with different elemental composition and very similar molecular masses is therefore determined by the resolution power. Consequently, high resolution powers are necessary to distinguish very close mass peaks. A mass spectrometer is considered high-resolution if its resolution power RP > 10,000 (FWHM at m/z 200).
Thus, HRMS makes it possible to measure molecular masses or monoisotopic masses accurately.
Why train in HRMS?
The applications of HRMS analysis are numerous. Thanks to this training, you will be able to:
Carry out accurate quantitative and qualitative analysis to identify and quantify compounds in complex matrices.
Detect and characterize contaminants, impurities, or trace substances in various sectors (pharmaceutical, agri-food, environmental, etc.).
Anticipate and resolve technical issues to maximize the efficiency and performance of your equipment.
Optimize the development of analytical methods tailored to your laboratory's requirements.
Improve the sensitivity and specificity of your analysis for reliable and reproducible results.
FILAB laboratory HRMS training...
Have you just acquired an HRMS for your laboratory? Are the qualified person or people no longer part of your team? Would you like to deepen your expertise in the profilometry method and the interpretation of results?
As an approved training organization, FILAB supports your teams in using HRMS chemical analysis techniques, whatever your industry.
Indeed, the applications of this technique are numerous, particularly in the biopharmaceutical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and medical sectors…
At FILAB, we develop and offer our clients only custom training courses, aligned with your industrial challenges and analytical requirements.
Why choose FILAB for any analytical chemistry or materials training?
FILAB is QUALIOPI certified for its training activities. Thanks to this certification, the training courses we provide may be eligible for funding requests through OPCOs.
Analytical training is essential for professionals seeking to master analysis and characterization techniques; in fact, it covers a wide range of techniques intended for the analysis and characterization of substances, materials, or products across various industrial sectors.
Our analytical training programs are designed to equip participants with the skills needed to excel in their field, combining rigorous theory with practical applications. Discover how our analytical training can transform your skill set within your company.
Several factors are behind the growing number of training requests to FILAB:
Custom technical training: most training courses offered by many training providers are standard, not custom-made, and do not address your technical challenges
Highly qualified people: our trainers are laboratory professionals, PhDs, or specialized engineers
Industrial expertise: FILAB has been providing training to its clients for over 10 years, across all industrial sectors
A unique profile with dual expertise in Chemistry and Materials
A human-sized organization, which allows us to be more responsive and more flexible
Our FAQ
To get a quote, you can contact our teams via our contact form, by phone, or by email.
All you need to do is send us your requirements (type of material, desired analysis, any applicable standard, urgency, number of samples, etc.). We will then send you a tailored technical and pricing proposal within 24-48 hours.
Lead times vary depending on the nature of the analysis and the complexity of the expertise project.
However, FILAB is committed to providing fast turnaround times adapted to your constraints and industrial urgencies.
As HRMS is a cutting-edge technique, it is strongly recommended to have a background in analytical chemistry and to be familiar with the fundamental principles of conventional mass spectrometry or chromatography (LC or GC). The training is designed to upskill laboratory technicians, analytical engineers, and R&D managers.
Yes, this is a fundamental part of the program. Generating exact-mass data is only useful if you know how to process it. The training teaches you how to use structural elucidation software, interpret isotopic patterns, use fragmentation tools (MS/MS), and query databases to identify an unknown compound with a high level of confidence.
The training covers the main high-resolution analyzer technologies on the market, depending on your equipment:
Time-of-Flight (TOF / Q-TOF) technologies: excellent acquisition speed, ideal for fast chromatographic couplings (UHPLC) and broad-spectrum screening.
Orbitrap (FTMS) technologies: offer the highest resolution power and ultra-high mass accuracy, perfect for complex structure elucidation and proteomics/metabolomics.
