Applications 
eMSTAT Solution Ver. 2.0 statistical analysis software is the first statistical analysis software in the industry for chromatograms to feature machine learning capabilities. The software uses analysis data obtained by a liquid chromatograph (LC), gas chromatograph (GC), and MALDI (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization) type mass spectrometer (MS). Since multivariate analysis can be easily performed, differences between target groups can be clarified and shown in comparisons with other products during product development in the food sector or in determining the quality of products during quality control assessments. The software features two modes: a Statistical Analysis Mode for easy visualization of differences and a Discriminant Analysis Mode that identifies unknown samples with models created through machine learning.

Video MUP-3100 Fully Automated Sample Preparation Module for Glycan Analysis
The MUP-3100 automates the time-consuming pretreatment process in the analysis of antibody glycans, which is required for the research and development and quality control of antibody pharmaceuticals. A 6-axis robot provides labor savings and increases efficiency with respect to processes that were conventionally performed manually. This enables not only continuous operations, but also eliminates procedural mistakes, ensures the safety of operators, and lessens the burden on them.
It is expected to be used by pharmaceutical companies as well as contract manufacturing organizations (CMO) and contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMO), where it will contribute to speeding up the research and development of pharmaceuticals by heightening the safety and efficiency of operations. This instrument is exclusively for antibody glycan analysis using the Auto-EZGlyco™ mAb-N Kit for SHIMADZU from Sumitomo Bakelite Co., Ltd.

Video LCMS-TQ RX Series
Applications 
The MALDI EasyCare systems have been designed to facilitate routine user maintenance to help retain optimal instrument performance for high throughput or high-laser-shot-number MALDI-TOF MS applications. All MALDI-TOF instruments are prone to fouling of the ion optics positioned close to the sample, or detector wear, and this can lead to reduced instrument performance e.g., reduced sensitivity and resolution. With the MALDI EasyCare systems, end users can easily perform maintenance tasks without the need for an expensive service engineer visit. A software wizard guides the user through the entire process. Here, we provide an example showing how the performance of an instrument used for MALDI imaging was recovered by this simple user maintenance procedure.
The LCMS-TQ RX series (LCMS-8060RX, LCMS-8050RX, and LCMS-8045RX) triple quadrupole high-performance liquid chromatograph mass spectrometers provide higher sensitivity, stability, and convenient operability.
With the LCMS-TQ RX series, the data reliability has been heightened by stabling the sample ionization with the ion source improved. This series is equipped with functions that check the instrument status prior to measurements, and automatically implement calibration (tuning), as well as ecology mode for minimizing standby power consumption, thereby achieving high-efficiency laboratory operations with a low environmental impact. Through this series, Shimadzu will heighten the efficiency of laboratory work related to pharmaceuticals, food product development, and environmental inspection so that we contribute to the growth of research and development in healthcare, green transformation, and other sectors.

Video MALDI-8020 EasyCare and MALDI-8030 EasyCare
The MALDI EasyCare feature enables customers to recover optimal performance by performing instrument maintenance – manual clean of the ion optics and automated tuning of the instrument - thereby reducing engineer call-outs. The entire process is guided by a software wizard resulting in an easy workflow which requires no technical experience. MALDI EasyCare will improve uptime in laboratories and increase analytical productivity on the already successful benchtop MALDI-8000 series, allowing customers to focus on what they do best, which is to produce data for their business.

Applications 
The Nexera FV ultra high performance liquid chromatograph (UHPLC) for online analysis is connected directly to a synthesis reactor or dissolution testing machine. After the raw materials or pharmaceutical samples are placed in the peripheral equipment, tasks up to data acquisition by the LC are performed automatically. With the Nexera FV, samples are automatically injected into the LC from the peripheral equipment via an autosampler (automatic sample injector) equipped with a newly developed flow vial kit. It can operate continuously without an analyst, enabling continuous sampling and analysis even overnight. Dedicated software (LabSolutions FV) simplifies the setting of sampling timing and analysis mode, as well as the data analysis of the results.

Video OAD-TOF system
Applications 
The OAD-TOF system, a quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer, is the first in the world to provide detailed structural analyses of lipids and other natural compounds. Oxygen attachment dissociation (OAD), an ion dissociation technology developed by Shimadzu, enables estimation of the position of double bonds between carbon atoms, a conventionally difficult task. In OAD, atomic oxygen is made to react with the ionized sample, and the double bonds between carbon atoms are selectively broken (dissociated). Information on the position of the double bonds between carbon atoms is then obtained from the ion fragments generated by the dissociation. A quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer (Q-TOF MS) measures the size and amount of samples separated at the atomic and molecular levels, thereby obtaining precise information on compounds. In combination, these techniques elucidate the structure of all types of compounds including lipids and other biological compounds.

Video IRSpirit-X Series Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer
Applications 
IRSpirit-X series Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometers provide both a small, lightweight design and the highest levels of sensitivity in their class. They are equipped with an analysis navigation program enabling novice FTIR users to obtain data easily, and a function that judges the quality of the measurement results and proposes how to obtain favorable data.
This series features three models, which can be selected to suit the objective and environment of use: the entry-level IRSpirit-LX, the IRSpirit-TX, which has the highest sensitivity for a small FTIR, and the IRSpirit-ZX, which is capable of stable measurements in high-temperature and high-humidity regions due to more moisture-resistant components. With the IRSpirit-X series of Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometers, Shimadzu realizes an environment in which highly reliable data is more easily obtained.
