Xevo® G2-S QTof

(Available for full-service analysis by service center staff only)

Photo of mass spectrometry equipment - 178Xevo®-G2-S-QTof

The Xevo® G2-S QTof is designed for scientists who need to identify, quantify, and confirm the broadest range of compounds in the most complex and challenging samples. Incorporating StepWave™ ion optics for sensitivity, the Xevo G2-S QTof also uses proven quantitative time-of-flight (QuanTof™) technology to simultaneously deliver superior UPLC®-compatible mass resolution, matrix tolerant dynamic range, quantitative performance, mass accuracy, and speed of analysis.

AB Sciex QTRAP 6500

(Available on a self-service or full-service basis)

The AB SCIEX QTRAP® 6500 system merges triple quadrupole and linear ion trap capabilities with new multi-component IonDrive™ technology to provide high sensitivity and wide linear dynamic range for quantitative analysis of analytes with m/z 5-2000. The AB SCIEX QTRAP® 6500 is equipped with electrospray (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI). It enables the performance of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), neutral loss scanning (NL), precursor ion scanning (PIS), NL/PIS triggered information-dependent acquisition (IDA), and MS/MS with polarity switching. The QTRAP 6500 is coupled with the Shimadzu Nexera UHPLC system, which provides maximized peak capacity and the lowest carryover for separation of complex biological samples prior to mass spectrometry analysis.
