FT-MS System Offers Interchangeable LC and GC Sources

The 920-MS triple quadrupole Fourier transform mass spectrometer (TQ-FTMS) is available with both LC and GC interfaces for ionization. The >1,000,000 ultra-high resolution and <0.5-ppm mass accuracy of these instruments provide detailed information in applications including proteomics, metabolomics, petrochemical and environmental analyses. The spectrometer combines the technology of the 320-MS triple quadrupole mass spectrometer with FT-ICR detectors. Available field strengths include 7, 9.4, 12.0 and now 15.0 Tesla. The magnets are available both in conventional and zero boil-off design. A choice of magnets and ionization sources allows customers to configure a solution to meet their specific needs with respect to sensitivity, mass accuracy, dynamic range, and application area. The system incorporates a true triple quadrupole mass spectrometer with its own off axis ion detector independent of the FT cell in the magnet. The choice of two detectors enables users to gather more types of information with a single instrument. In addition, users can acquire data from typical triple quadrupole experiments, such as neutral loss, multiple reaction monitoring, and quantitation.
