Thermo Scientific™ Q Exactive™ GC Orbitrap™ GC-MS/MS System

Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Thermo Scientific™ Q Exactive™ GC system is the first-ever combination of high resolution gas chromatography with high-resolution/accurate-mass (HR/AM) Orbitrap detection for the most comprehensive sample characterization. This easy-to-use system provides the most comprehensive characterization of samples in a single analysis for the highest confidence in compound discovery, identification, and quantitation. Building upon the flexible modularity of the Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1300 Series GC, including user-exchangeable injectors and detectors, the Q Exactive GC system has the quantitative power of a GC triple quadrupole MS combined with the high precision, full scan high-resolution/accurate-mass capability that only Orbitrap technology can offer.   Key Features: Advanced quadrupole technology (AQT) for high transmission of selected masses Resolving power up to 120,000 at m/z 200 Part-per-trillion-level sensitivity Thermo Scientific™ Extractabrite™ ion source for robust, rugged electron impact (EI) and chemical ionization (CI) performance Curved linear C-trap for precise ion injection HCD collision cell for higher energy collisional dissociation provides MS/MS ion characterization Intelligent identification software elucidates the nature of each injected sample. Applications: Untargeted and targeted metabolomics Food and beverage Industrial analyses Environmental Pharmaceutical Clinical and toxicology

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place. Visit our product directory to receive quotes direct from the manufacturer. Clinical Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry is emerging as a superior method of analysis over the longstanding, gold standard of immunoassay. Clinical mass spectrometry systems are increasingly accessible to medical laboratories and are capable of providing results with more speed and less expense than traditional methods. From simple mass spectrometers to IVDR class A compliant, highly sophisticated systems performing liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), find the latest product news, reviews and resources to make a purchasing decision for your laboratory.
