Method Development San Diego, CA

At Scientificolab, we craft and optimize analytical methods tailored to your samples and goals - whether it’s ultra‑trace quantitation, high‑throughput screening, or complex matrix analysis. Our Method Development workflow ensures your assays are sensitive, precise, and rugged.

Our Approach

  • Sample Profiling: Review sample types, concentrations, and matrices to anticipate challenges (e.g., protein binding, solvent effects).
  • Technology Match: Recommend the ideal platform—HPLC, UPLC, GC, LC‑MS, or CE—based on target analytes and sensitivity needs.
  • Feasibility Study: Run pilot tests to confirm detectability and evaluate potential interferences.
  • Chromatographic Conditions
      • Column chemistry, particle size, and dimensions
      • Mobile‑phase composition, pH, and gradient profiles

    Detector & MS Settings
      • Wavelength selection, gain settings, and response factors
      • MS ionization mode, collision energies, and dwell times

    Flow‑through Testing
      • Inject a series of standards to fine‑tune retention, resolution, and peak shape
      • Use design‑of‑experiments (DoE) to systematically explore variables and interactions

    • Robustness Checks: Deliberately vary temperature, flow rate, and pH to ensure method stability
    • Calibration & Linearity: Establish calibration curves across the intended concentration range with replicate injections
    • Limit of Detection (LOD) & Quantitation (LOQ): Determine the lowest levels you can reliably detect and quantif

    Full Validation Package
      • Accuracy, precision, specificity, and carryover studies
      • System suitability criteria and acceptance thresholds

    Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
      • Step‑by‑step instructions for sample prep, instrument setup, and data processing
      • Troubleshooting tips and maintenance reminders

    Final Report
      • Detailed method description, validation data, and recommended QC checks
      • Ready‑for‑audit documentation, including raw data and signed checklists
