1 Agilent Technologies Technological Innovation and Growth of Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry for Research in the Clinical Laboratory AACC 2013 Mass Spectrometry in the Clinical Laboratory: Best Practices and Current Applications Sept 17-18, St. Louis, MO 1

2 Outline Summary Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry LC/MS/MS use has seen incredible success and growth in the last decade for a wide range of small molecules clinical research. New and innovative technologies/methodologies spanning the entire sample analysis workflow -- improving sensitivity, specificity, and throughput -- will always be introduced. The promise of biomarker research is still unfulfilled but successes in targeted proteomics demonstrate that the next clinical frontier is here now and will continue to grow with LC/MS/MS. 2
