Mass Spectrometry
AB SCIEX QTRAP 5500 UHPLC/MS/MS
The UHPLC/MS/MS system is composed of a highly sensitive AB SCIEX QTRAP 5500 mass spectrometer interfaced to a Shimadzu NEXERA Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatograph (UHPLC). The NEXERA UHPLC offers pressure range up to 19000 psi and is suitable for both conventional and fast analysis in combining use of small particle column. The QTRAP 5500 is a hybrid triple quadrupole Linear Ion Trap mass spectrometer, offering some very unique features.
- Mass/charge range of 5-1250 Da in triple quadrupole mode and 5-1000 Da in linear ion trap mode.
- Operating software : Analyst 1.5.2; Quantitation software: MultiQuant 2.1.
- Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) quantitation using triple quadrupole system.
- Both quanlitative and quantitative analysis in one single run.
- High sensitivity and relatively high resolution full-scan MS, MS/MS, and MS3 in Linear Ion Trap mode.
- Triple quadrupole precursor ion and neutral loss scans.
- Metabolite identification facilitated by LightSight 2.2.1and ACD/labs MS processor.
Varian 1200L LC/MS/MS
The Varian LC/MS/MS system is composed of a 1200L triple quadrupole mass spectrometer coupled to a Varian ProStar HPLC.
- Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) quantitation
- Triple quatrupole Precursor ion and Neutral loss scan
- Easy to use operating software
