TOF System Combines Sensitivity and Speed

The AB SCIEX TripleTOF 5600 system delivers a series of innovations, including SmartSpeed 100Hz Acquisition that is at least 5x higher speed, Accelerator TOF analyzer for high-resolution data at high speed with the highest sensitivity, and EasyMass accuracy to achieve stable ~1ppm mass accuracy without continuous user calibration.

This next-generation mass spectrometry instrumentation combines the highest available sensitivity and speed with high resolution. Scientists can utilize it to generate better quality information from samples more easily than previously possible, increasing productivity and efficiency within their laboratories. The TripleTOF 5600 system also provides life scientists with access to powerful new workflows for comprehensive exploration, rapid profiling and high-resolution quantitation of complex samples.

AB SCIEX is enabling these workflows with a suite of new application-specific software the company is also launching in conjunction with the platform. Among them are MetabolitePilot software for identifying metabolites in pharmaceutical research, and PeakView software for processing and visualizing large amounts of mass spectrometry data quickly and simply, as well as new versions of MultiQuant software for streamlined quantitation of small and large molecules, ProteinPilot software for simplified proteomics; LipidView software for lipidomics research and MarkerView software for metabolomics and biomarker profiling analysis.

The TripleTOF 5600 system was developed in collaboration with scientists at the Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute of Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto and the Univ. of Geneva’s Mass Spectrometry Centre. These collaborations helped produce workflows for pharmaceutical research and disease research, now available for the life science community with the launch of this system.

Striving Toward Secondary Goals
Late last month, Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich stunned most everyone when he declared his promise that "by the end of my second term, we will have the first permanent base on the moon." While I don’t fault Gingrich for dreaming and trying to set high standards and goals, I can’t help but think of the enormous amount of known and unknown variables that significantly deter this accomplishment...continue
