Sensitivity and Performance Enhancement for Early Generation LC-MS/MS Instruments

IONICS EP 10+ is a product that enhances the sensitivity and performance for early-generation LC/MS/MS instrumentation (API 300/365). It is now available with the new collision cell with the crosstalk reduced to less than 0.1% and greater MS/MS sensitivity.

Existing units can be upgraded or IONICS can provide a fully upgraded unit. In terms of performance, an upgraded API 365 LC-MS/MS instrument configuration can yield more than a factor of ten in product ion sensitivity above the original design.

The API 2000TM upgrade is now available. The new efficient collision cell, IONICS EP Q3, makes Q3 scans now equivalent to Q1 scans, with great peak resolution and the ms-ms sensitivity increase of up to a factor of 4.

IONICS also engages in customized instrument design and development based on specific customer requirements.
