MOBILion Systems to Showcase Innovative SLIM Technology at ASMS 2026

MOBILion Systems, Inc., a notable leader in the field of separation science, is gearing up to present its groundbreaking SLIM™ technology at the 74th Annual American Society for Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) conference in San Diego, CA, from May 31st to June 4th, 2026. This event marks a significant opportunity for the company to illustrate how its proprietary technology is influencing the future of mass spectrometry across various applications.

A Game Changer in Mass Spectrometry

During this year's conference, MOBILion will conduct a series of presentations, scientific posters, and breakfast seminars to showcase the broad capabilities of their SLIM technology. This technology facilitates high-resolution ion mobility, which in turn enhances the speed, accuracy, and cleanliness of mass spectrometry data. Industries benefiting from SLIM include PFAS analysis, drug discovery, biopharmaceutical characterization, proteomics, lipidomics, metabolomics, food testing, and clinical and translational research.

Dr. Melissa Sherman, the Founder and CEO of MOBILion Systems, stated, “MOBILion's mission has always been to reveal what conventional LCMS workflows leave unseen.” With their advanced technology, customers are already experiencing the advantages of high-resolution ion mobility, fostering transformative applications in challenging real-world environments.

Expanding the Reach of SLIM Technology

A key highlight of MOBILion’s technology is its versatility. SLIM is not confined to a specific instrument configuration, nor is it limited to a narrow application niche. When incorporated upstream of mass spectrometry, SLIM can significantly boost performance across various detector classes, including nominal-mass quadrupole systems, high-resolution QTOF platforms, and next-generation proteomics systems. This versatility positions SLIM as an essential asset for mass spectrometry vendors aiming to evolve their product lines over the coming decade.

Detailed Capabilities Boost Performance

MOBILion's array of SLIM-enabled platforms encompasses three high-value opportunities. The QTOF configuration optimized for proteomics, powered by PAMAF, enhances ion utilization to allow for greater sensitivity and deeper proteome coverage. Furthermore, a QTOF integration designed for non-proteomics workflows reduces interference, resulting in improved data quality and faster insights. Lastly, the introduction of a new SLIM-enabled QQQ mode of operation called PAMAT (Parallel Accumulation Mobility Aligned Targeting) promises to redefine targeted workflow performance, enhancing throughput, quantitative accuracy, and precision.

MOBILion's cohesive strategies leverage SLIM high-resolution ion mobility to redefine how ions are separated and analyzed across the mass spectrometry landscape. By refining instrument performance and utilizing the cleaner, richer datasets produced, they enhance downstream artificial intelligence workflows. As laboratories increasingly strive to expedite and automate data analysis while extracting deeper insights from complex datasets, the unique capabilities of SLIM-enabled instruments become an invaluable strategic asset.
