Waters has acquired MOBILion Systems, adding technology that separates complex molecules by size, shape and charge within milliseconds to its analytical instrumentation portfolio. MOBILion's team also brings expertise in ion mobility separation.

Waters plans to combine the technology with its Xevo MRT mass spectrometry platform to improve protein identification, analytical sensitivity and sample throughput. The company aims to generate larger biological datasets for AI research and connect laboratory instruments to AI applications. Potential clinical diagnostic uses depend on developing and validating appropriate assays.
