ProductHeadline

Trained on the world’s largest quantitative mass spec dataset and built upon our Large Spectral Model (LSM), PyxisTM deep-learns how to map raw mass spec data to absolute concentrations. Harnessing a set of universal calibrants called StandardCandlesTM, Pyxis produces untargeted absolute quantitative results in minutes, without expertise or manual data processing.

What Makes Pyxis Unique

Illustrated magnifying glassUntargeted: ability to broadly identify and quantify as many features as possible from raw untargeted data


Illustrated bar graphQuantitative: absolute quantitation makes it possible to compare data across samples, experiments, studies, and even across laboratories


Illustrated stopwatchFast: results allow for decision as soon as data acquisition is complete

Illustrated cog in motionAutomated: no need for PhD-level expertise to manually curate features and analyze data


Illustrated double sided arrow inside a squareScalable: a small set of universal methods and standards replaces laborious method development and calibrations that yield limited analytical coverage


Illustrated arrows forming a circleReproducible: a single sample preparation kit and software pipeline to ensure uniformity and standardization
