PERFORMANCE
Mass Accuracy
Maintains mass accuracy, even at the highest scan speed of 30,000 u/sec1
Resolution
< 0.5 Da
Sensitivity
30 times that of the LCMS-8030.
High sensitivity is achieved through the use of a newly designed heated ESI probe and a high-efficiency CID cell, the UFsweeper™ III3.
Excellent reproducibility even at attogram (ag) levels
