Product news

Peak Scientific, a global leader in gas generation for analytical laboratories, has unveiled its latest dedicated gas solution for use with LC-MS systems. The company’s new Genius 1024 nitrogen and dry air generator has been designed exclusively to meet the needs of SCIEX LC-MS systems and has been approved by SCIEX for use on all their RUO LC-MS systems.

This is not the first time Peak has developed a SCIEX-specific solution, with the Genius 1024 effectively replacing the company’s successful Genius ABN2ZA nitrogen generator, which was also developed specifically for SCIEX. Compared with its predecessor, the new Genius 1024 has a significantly increased flow rate, meaning it can meet the demands of SCIEX’s newer and more advanced LC-MS systems, including the X500 Series QTOF systems.

The Genius 1024 is built around the trusted and proven technology of Peak Scientific’s Genius series of generators. Designed mainly for LC-MS applications, these are self-contained systems featuring integrated compressors, delivering laboratory-grade nitrogen at various pressures and flow rates required by numerous instruments.

Michelle Goldie, Product Manager at Peak Scientific, said of the new launch:

“We are delighted to present SCIEX customers with a compact, under-bench solution which has been specifically designed to support the complete range of SCIEX mass spectrometers (RUO only). The Genius 1024 is a highly economical laboratory gas source with low lifetime running costs which has been approved by SCIEX, and we are very excited to now offer it to the market.”

Annabelle Carter-Finch, Senior Product Manager at SCIEX, commented:

“SCIEX is pleased to offer our customers the latest technology from Peak Scientific. The Genius 1024 generator meets the needs of our customers in terms of both performance and cost of ownership, as well as being mindful of space limitations of many laboratories”

As with all PEAK SCIENTIFIC products, the Genius 1024 is engineered, assembled and performance tested at the company’s ISO 9001 compliant manufacturing center of excellence in the UK, and is backed with Peak’s market leading global on-site technical support and unconditional warranty.

LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis. Find the best LC-MS equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.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.

ChromatographyChromatography is a powerful technique used to separate and analyze components of mixtures based on their chemical properties. It is widely used in fields like biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, and environmental analysis. By exploiting differences in the interaction of substances with a stationary phase and a mobile phase, chromatography enables precise purification and quantification of compounds. Whether you're working with complex biological samples or industrial chemicals, chromatography is essential for obtaining high-quality results.
