Breakthrough in Mass Spectrometry
A
gilent’s 6550 iFunnel Q-TOF LC/
MS system delivers low detection
levels. For the first time, one can
achieve low femtogram-level
sensitivity with high resolution
and accurate-mass.
Agilent’s Ion Beam Compression and Shaping (IBCS)
technology provides the
greatest sensitivity, while maintaining
40k mass resolution and sub-1ppm mass
accuracy. Enhanced electronics and software algorithms enable exceedingly high
data acquisition rates of up to 50 spectra/
second for ultra-fast UHPLC separations
with the Agilent 1290 Infinity LC.
This iFunnel technology also combines
the high efficiency ESI ion generation
and focusing of the Jet Stream sample
introduction with unique hexabore sampling capillary and dual-stage ion fu
