Take the first steps to journey from GC/MS ChemStation software into the realm of MassHunter software!

MassHunter delivers outstanding performance in all MS processes (GC & LC MS, MSMS, TOF, QTOF, and ICPMS), reducing the number of different software programs required to control and collect analytical data in your laboratory. This software suite provides detailed instrument control, monitoring, and data analysis. Please join us to discover the powerful and time saving tools found in the MassHunter software platforms of qualitative, quantitative, and unknowns data analysis.

MassHunter Unknowns Analysis for the Forensic Chemist-Fundamental Workflow Part II

The MassHunter Unknowns Analysis video Part II is designed to reinforce the workflows of Unknowns Analysis illustrated in Part I to actual forensic samples. The student will also learn how to create additional components, manually and apply background subtraction. Working through forensic data, the video is designed to help translate established workflows within ChemStation Data Analysis to MassHunter Unknowns Analysis.

Presenter: Kirk Lokits, PhD

Kirk received his B.S. in Forensic Science and Chemistry from Eastern Kentucky University and began working as a Forensic Drug Chemist in the Miami Valley Regional Crime Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio. He then moved to Orlando, Florida where he worked as a Forensic Toxicologist for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in the Orlando Regional Crime Laboratory and later as a Crime Analyst Supervisor in the Pensacola Regional Crime Laboratory. Kirk left the forensic realm and began his tenure with Hewlett Packard/Agilent Technologies, working as a Customer Service Engineer (CE) supporting the LC, GC, LC/MS, GC/MS, and ICP/MS products. While working for HP Kirk earned his M.S. in Analytical Chemistry from Middle Tennessee State University and in 2005 Kirk left Agilent Technologies to attend the University of Cincinnati to earn his Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry. After receiving his Ph.D., Kirk worked for the Midwest Research Institute (MRI) in Kansas City, MO where he worked as a Principal Chemist and Sr. Program Manager on Department of Defense projects, staffing, designing, and building remote laboratories for placement throughout the world. In 2014, Kirk re-joined Agilent Technologies as a GC/MS Applications Scientist focusing on forensic applications.
