Meet us at Orbitrap Day in Paris | 6 November 2025
Fossiliontech will present its technologies at the Orbitrap Day in Paris, which will be held at the Institut Pasteur.
Using Super Soft ionization, Orbitrap instruments can resolve most volatilomics samples directly, without the need for GC, enabling higher throughput and dynamic studies.
We look forward to participating in the event and engaging with the scientific community.
How would bio-production look if volatile bio-products of fermentation could be detected in real-time (within seconds) and without sample preparation?
Hendrik Mengers, Martin Zimmermann & Lars M. Blank from Aachen University monitored the volatilome of yeast during growth in a shake flasks bioreactor. Among many more metabolites, they caught the evolution of acetaldehyde and ethanol within seconds.
In-vitro volatilome profiles of lung cancer captured with Super SESI - Orbitrap platform
This work from the Ohio State University shows the potential of the platform SUPER SESI (by Fossiliontech) - Orbitrap (by Thermo Fisher Scientific) on differentiating cancer types and monitoring their treatment.
Why automate every control of an ion source?
Electrospray provides the best performance, but obtaining a stable signal can be tricky.
The new SUPER SESI-X, designed for the Thermo Orbitrap Exploris series, is fully automatic and is ready to incorporate intelligent control. This source will auto-pilot the electrospray to bring high performance and reliability.
Personalized drug dosage with breath analysis demonstrated in a clinical setting
Converting data to knowledge can be a daunting task because breath samples are complex. This gap has been bridged with high-quality data and advanced metabolomics data analysis techniques.
