LC/Mass Spectrometers
AB SCIEX TripleTOF 4600 system 
The AB SCIEX TripleTOF 4600 system includes a mass spectrometer, a DuoSpray™ ion source, and a computer running the Analyst TF software. The DuoSpray ion source combines a Turbo Ion Spray (TSI) probe and an APCI (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization) probe in a single ion source housing.
Unique features include: increased sensitivity with QJet Ion Guide and Accelerator TOF Anayzer; SmartSpeed 100Hz Acquisition; select up to 50 precursors and get high resolution MS/MS results using IDA (information-dependent acquisition) algorithms.
AB SCIEX TripleTOF 5600 system
The AB SCIEX TripleTOF 5600 system includes a mass spectrometer, a DuoSpray™ ion source, a High frequency LINAC® Collision Cell, an Accelerator TOF Analyzer, a Detection system, and a computer running the Analyst TF 1.7.1 software. Key features include enhanced selectivity with differential ion mobility, robust spray with the DuoSpray™ Turbo V Source, comprehensive coverage with data-independent SWATH acquisition, and maximize flexibility with front end separations. The AB SCIEX TripleTOF 5600 system is coupled to an Acquity UPLC H-Class system for chromatographic separation.
The Shimadzu Prominence UFLC system
Both mass spectrometers have Shimadzu Prominence UFLC systems which provides 10 times faster separation than conventional LC with a reduction of total analysis cycle time and three times better separation.
Elemental Analyzer (ICP-MS) 
The iCAP Q ICP-MS has been developed with groundbreaking technology to enable advanced high-performance analysis combined with total reliability and ultra-flexibility.
- Ergonomically designed quadrupole ICP-MS with smallest bench space available
- Innovative RAPID (Right Angle Positive Ion Deflection) lens technology (90° ion optics done right) for separation of ions and neutrals
- High-performance quadrupole analyzer is pumped by a novel split flow turbo pump backed by a single rotary
- New, simultaneous analog/PC detector with real time multi-channel analyzer electronics provides >9 orders of dynamic range suitable for both steady state and transient signal analysis
MALDI TOF/TOF Mass Spectrometer
The AXIMA Performance is a MALDI-TOF/TOF instrument with a 50Hz nitrogen laser, up to 384 sample target capability and automated software. With the ability to perform high energy collisional-induced dissociation (CID), the instrument can provide highly informative MS/MS spectra for a variety of compounds including peptides, sugars, lipids, small molecules, etc. This instrument provides high sensitivity and resolution using the curved field reflectron for MS/MS without re-acceleration.
Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Exploris 240 LC/MS System
The Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Exploris 240 LC/MS System showcases exceptional prowess in distinguishing target ions amidst complex sample interferences, delivering an impressive resolution of up to 240,000 (FWHM) at m/z 200. Expanding its capabilities further, the inclusion of the Thermo Scientific BioPharma option enables the analysis of large molecules reaching up to m/z 8000 (accessible upon request). Meanwhile, the Vanquish Flex LC system presents a broad flow rate spectrum, ranging from a minimum of 1 micro liter per minute to a maximum of 8 milliliters per minute, ensuring adaptability across diverse chromatographic requirements.
Agilent 6470B Triple Quadrupole LC/MS System
The Agilent 6470B LC/MS with Agilent Jet Stream Source is a sophisticated instrument engineered for comprehensive molecule detection, precise identification, and accurate quantification within intricate sample matrices. Renowned for its exceptional sensitivity and selectivity, this system integrates advanced capabilities, allowing for the analysis of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions. Key features: VacShield dramatically reduces maintenance by 92% for this instrument, by allowing the user to easily remove the Ion Injector without venting the MS system.
