A New Era for Label‑Free High‑Throughput Screening
In this article, Darling explains how combining ultra‑fast sampling with high‑sensitivity accurate mass detection is enabling workflows that were previously unrealistic with LC–MS. She explores the impact on medicinal chemistry, synthetic biology, and bioprocessing, and highlights why some customers are shifting entire early-stage screening workflows to the Echo MS+ system.
