Cut the Cost of Qualification

NLG Analytical has announced the release of its latest v-kit qualification system for LCMS systems, suitable for single and triple quad MS.

Neil Gowans, NLG Analytical’s MD explained: “It’s not unusual to find one manufacturer supplying the HPLC front end and another the MS. Using v-kit the individual components of the system receive an OQ then the whole system is PQ’d. Validating using the new v-kit-LCMS allows for a common, system-wide approach and a harmonised and consistent qualification across all LCMS systems.

Like the HPLC, GC and GCMS kits, the LCMS package consists of software driven protocols, Standard operating procedures (SOPs) and traceable reference standards.

Written on the advanced v-kit Pro platform, the software features report creation, summary reporting and audit trail, user/manager access rights. The electronic logbook function allows the data from the entire qualification exercise to be quickly and easily assembled into a single document for storage or distribution.

v-kit is manufactured by NLG Analytical, Cheshire, UK, and is used worldwide in labs working to GMP and/or subject to inspection from regulatory agencies such as FDA, MHRA. The kits can be provided for qualification by the user, or as part of service delivery by approved v-kit service partners.
