LC/MS/MS Systems

 


Several considerations go in to the selection of the right instrument to support your sample analyses. For one, it’s not just the molecular mass (m) but also the charge (z) or the m/z ratio that determines the measurement range. We will help identify the right instrument to serve your need.

Thermo Orbitrap ID-X Tribrid MS Coupled With MassTech AP-MALDI for MS Imaging.  Thermo Orbitrap IDX Tribid (a combination of a quadrupole, an ion trap, and an Orbitrap) MS is a high resolution mass spectrometer with a mass range of 50 to 2000 m/z, mass resolution up to 500,000 at FWHM, mass accuracy <5 ppm, and scan speed of up to 40 Hz. In combination with Orbitrap ID-X Tribrid Mass Spectrometer supporting the Thermo Scientific Aquire X intelligent MSn data acquisition strategy, Compound Discovery software offering a full suite of advanced software tools for known-parent and unknown compound identification. Mass Frontier 8.0 software can be used to capture more low-abundance analytes through streamlined data analysis and mass spectral prediction tools\

 

The AP-MALDI (ng) source (MassTech Inc) equipped with a 10 kHz 355 nm Nd:YAG laser is an Ultra High Resolution (UHR) MALDI which allows for a focused laser spot less than 10 µm in diameter. It is an add-on MALDI source that can be coupled to the Thermo ID-X and Sciex 6600+ mass spectrometer.This instrumentation could perform MALDI-imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI-MSI) of lipids, peptides, drugs, metabolites to visualize their localization on a tissue section. Combination of high mass accuracy and high mass resolution of the Mass spec and AP-MALDI focused laser spot of 10 µm allow us to generate mass spectral images of different biomolecules distributed within a thin tissue section with spatial resolution (20-100 µm). 

 

 

 

Sciex 6600plus Triple-TOF Coupled with MassTech AP-MALDI for MS Imaging 

SCIEX TripleTOF® 6600+ is a high resolution mass spectrometer with TripleTOF technology, delivering high performance and reproducibility. This mass spectrometer can achieve mass resolution up to 30,000 at FWHM, scan speed up to 100 Hz, and the TOF mass range of 5 to 40,000 m/z. The combination of AP-MALDI source and TripleTOF® 6600+ could perform MALDI-imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI-MSI) of lipids, peptides, drugs, metabolites, etc to visualize their localization on a tissue section. Advantage of this equipment is its high throughput. Fast scanning of tissue sections is possible by the 100 Hz high scan speed of TripleTOF® 6600+ and 10 kHz laser of AP-MALDI source.
