In this presentation, Joe Di Bussolo from Thermo Fisher Scientific and Carisa Dixon Tate from PETRL discuss how screening blood samples from race horses for prohibited drugs requires validated methods and instrumentation that maximize sensitivity and selectivity while minimizing sample handling.
They will detail the performance of traditional LC-MS systems and methods and how they can be improved by automating on-line sample cleanup by TurboFlow™ technology coupled ultra high-resolution liquid chromatography (UHPLC); as well as their experiences in developing and validating new drug screening methods.
