MultiQuant™ 2.0 Software Features (All Users)
Ability to Add Samples from Multiple Batches and Multiple .wiff Files
Faster, Better: Speed Improvements
• Faster Navigation: The user interface for MultiQuant™ software has been improved
resulting in faster navigation, including visual cues for row selection and fast sample
assignment for multi-component samples.
• Faster Integration: Integration using the latest version of the Analyst
®
software
integration algorithm, MQ4, is significantly faster for large MRM datasets, allowing users
to review and edit the data more quickly.
Introduction of the SignalFinder™ Integration Algorithm
• The SignalFinder integration algorithm is a new integration algorithm introduced with
MultiQuant 2.0 software. By using peak modeling capabilities using a reference
spectrum, this algorithm is
able to achieve impressive results, minimizing the need for
manual integration of the data, or even for tweaking data parameters.
• Dynamic Range Extension is achieved within the SignalFinder integration algorithm to
extend the upper dynamic range of a sample set by up to 30 times during cases where
detector saturation predominates.
MultiQuant™ 2.0 Software Features (Regulated Users)
For customers operating in a regulated environment, for example a 21 CFR Part 11 or
GLP Environment, MultiQuant software incorporates many additional new features
over the Analyst
®
software Quantitation module.
MultiQuant Advanced Audit Trail Software
MultiQuant software redefines the audit trail experience for quantitation. It provides fast
navigation tools and same-screen integration difference comparisons along with the
• Searching: MultiQuant software provides users the ability to filter through the audit trail
quickly and effectively.
• “Before and After” Review of Integration Data: By clicking on a sample in the audit
trail, users will immediately see the integrated chromatograms from both before and after
the change was made.
Results Table Lockdown and Fast E-Signatures
• After integrating the peaks, the user can lock down the Results Table. Only a user with
the correct role-assignment can unlock the Results Table once it is locked down;
however, a QC reviewer can still log comments about the Results Table in the audit trail.
This enforces separation of roles, and ensures that changes are not made in the review
process without appropriate approval.
• E-Signatures on changes to integrations are consolidated, so that a single E-Signature
signs off on the set of events that changes a chromatogram, rather than performing
multiple E-Signatures for each change.
