MOBILion Systems announces the 100th peer-reviewed publication featuring its separations technology platform

MOBILion Systems, Inc., has announced that as of December 2024, its foundational Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulation (SLIM) platform technology reached the milestone of being highlighted in 100 peer-reviewed publications, such as the Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, Analytical Chemistry, and the International Journal of Mass Spectrometry.

These publications validate the relevance and impact of the SLIM technology to advance separation science, as evidenced by the evolution from invention to commercial product and the wide-ranging practical applications demonstrating analytical characterization.

The seminal publication on the SLIM platform technology was published by physical chemist Richard D. Smith, Ph.D., at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in 2014. Since then, multiple academic and industrial researchers have published results demonstrating the ability of the SLIM technology and MOBILion's product to significantly enhance traditional methods of molecular separation. These advancements have impacted drug discovery, drug characterization, drug metabolism research, biomarker discovery, clinical research, environmental analysis, food safety, natural product characterization, forensic science, and perfluorinated compound analysis.

"These publications are a testament to the transformative impact of the SLIM platform technology to shift the paradigm of what is possible in analytical characterization by improving traditional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry workflows with faster, more efficient, deeper and more accurate molecular characterization," said Dr. Melissa Sherman, CEO of MOBILion Systems.

"With the MOBIE^®- QTOF platform as our first commercial product and the PAMAF operation mode for more complex analysis in development, we are excited to continue pushing the boundaries of separation science to unlock new growth and innovation opportunities across multiple industries," she concluded.
