One Lab. So Many Answers.
Waters Targeted Omics Method Library (TOML), featuring MetaboQuan™ and LipidQuan™ method packages, provides instant access to a wide variety of valuable targeted LC-MS/MS methods, empowering your lab to bring high demand assays on line quickly and easily. Each downloadable Method Package includes a plug-and-play method file (Quanpedia) containing all of the chromatographic and spectrometric settings for the method, an application note describing the sample prep and how to run the method, a list of stable-isotope labeled harmonization standards for each of the analytes measured in the assay. In short, the TOML is an on-line source of downloadable assays that can be imported and running on your Waters system in a matter of hours, significantly increasing the coverage of your lab, the value of your system, and providing quantitative tools to explore important emerging areas in biomedical research such as Lipidomics and Metabolomics.
And if you are running more than one system in your lab, or running multiple systems across multiple labs, the TOML is a powerful resource to enhance harmonization across your systems and labs. Just download the TOML to each system and ensure that the same methods are being run across your lab(s).
Fast Forward to Results
At Waters we understand the many demands on your lab, which is why we have worked to develop rapid (-R) method packages for our MetaboQuan and LipidQuan methods. All methods with an (-R) designation are rapid, easy-to-deploy methods developed on a single Waters LC-MS/MS platform with a single, common workflow shared across all methods. That means your system* can run multiple different analyses without changing columns and mobile phases. And that translates into less downtime for your lab and more coverage for your customers.

What is Quanpedia?
Waters MassLynx software is equipped with Quanpedia - a “one stop” database for storing and sharing user defined LC/MRM acquisition methods and associated processing methods for the targeted quantitation of named compounds. Quanpedia is a compound-centric database that holds all UPLC chromatographic, MS/MS acquisition and TargetLynx quantitation information in one place. Information may be imported from automated optimizations, existing methods, third party files, and/or supplemented manually.
