Description

OptiSpray Ion SourceAn intelligent electrospray ionization interface that dramatically simplifies the acquisition of high-quality, reproducible nano and capillary LC-MS data for your most challenging biological samples, the OptiSpray ion source combines automated spray optimization with cartridge-based nano and capillary columns to deliver high-sensitivity, quantitative accuracy and precision, and maximum robustness for both discovery and targeted assays.
Electron Transfer Dissociation (ETD)For improved sequence coverage and post-translational modification analysis of peptides and proteins, choose the ETD option for peptide fragmentation. This option can be used instead of, or in conjunction with, collision-induced dissociation (CID) on specific Orbitrap mass spectrometers.
FAIMS Pro Duo InterfaceFor challenging bioanalytical applications, including the accurate determination of pharmacokinetic parameters, high-Field Asymmetric waveform Ion Mobility Spectrometry (FAIMS) can be used to optimize ion selectivity and reduce chemical backgrounds during mass spectrometry assays. FAIMS successfully prevents interferences from co-eluting compounds and increases signal to noise ratios by 100-fold or higher.
VeriSpray PaperSpray Ion SourceImprove turnaround time, reduce cost per test and minimize sample preparation with a fully automated, fully integrated, high-throughput, direct ionization technique used with our newest triple quadrupole mass spectrometers.
Heated Electrospray Ionization (HESI-II) ProbeEnhance your LC-MS assays up to eight times by adding a HESI-II probe to your Thermo Scientific Ion Max ion source. The HESI-II probe provides better desolvation and improved nozzle performance, and is already a standard feature of many Thermo Scientific mass spectrometers.
