Key Features
- Revised ion source design. Orthogonal source geometry with an
additional drying gas at the inlet of the capillary. Results in
higher sensitivity and greater control of solvent adduct formation.
- Revised electrospray probe design. Maintenance free design.
- Revised ion optics. Enhanced ion transmission by further optimising
the skimmer cone design at the entrance to the mass analyser.
- Microbore compatibility for both ESI and APCI. Technological
advances in probe design have expanded the operating range of
both APCI and ESI without affecting sensitivity. APCI is now compatible
with microbore flow rates (less than 50uL/minute) while ESI can
operate with flow rates as high as 2mL/minute without requiring
flow splitting
- Mass directed purification support. PsiPort™ mass directed
auto-purification software has been designed to help accelerate
compound isolation and auto-purification by preparative LC/MS.
The application software is web-based providing a generic solution
to data review and data acquisition and has been designed to meet
the needs of medicinal and synthetic chemists to track samples,
fractions and associated data from MS and UV detectors. PsiPort™
also supports third party devices such as the Gilson 215 either
as a fraction collector or autosampler.
- Fast scanning electronics support 6000 amu/second (6000 data
points per second) acquisition rates for fast chromatography applications.
Peak widths of several seconds may be detected using fast scan
rates to maintain spectrum quality without affecting the accuracy
and precision of detection.
- Multi-sequence mode support. Supports mixed mode analysis (switching
between full scan acquisitions and selected ion monitoring), multiple
acquisition conditions in a single analysis, simultaneous structural
information and molecular weight confirmation in both positive
and negative ion mode from a single injection and optimizes the
response to both quantitation ions and confirmatory ions to minimize
false positives and increase confidence in peak assignment.
- Automatically controlled nebulizer gas flow.
- Software-controlled syringe pump for simple calibration and
infusion.
- Unique Q-array™ (patent pending) ion guide. Q-array ion
guide (patent pending) configuration is unique - three quadrupoles
with different inscribed radii coupled with an octapole The Q-array™
precisely focuses ion delivery into the mass analyser. The ion
optic design for the LCMS-2010A is the most innovative design
in ion focussing technology. Using the Q-array™ (patent
pending) and octapole RF guides to precisely focus ions to the
mass analyser we deliver new limits of detection for LC.

Unmatched Productivity
- Supports the new standard in high throughput auto-injectors,
the SIL-HT from Shimadzu (15 second injection cycle)
- Automatic acquisition, processing and reporting through a single
click of the mouse
- High throughput micro-titre plate support.
- Customised reporting for efficient and effective information
management.
- Streamlined data processing for third party software systems.
- Automated export to knowledge systems.
- Mass directed purification.
- Multi-sequence mode capability maximizing MS information in
a single run
|
Multi-sequence mode
- Enhanced source design
- The atmospheric pressure ion source now supports a counter
gas flow to control adduct formation and enhance ion transmission
of low polarity compounds. The counter gas flow not only enhances
the desolvation processes but reduces the maintenance on the capillary
inlet.
- To reduce maintenance further and increase sensitivity the electrospray
probe design has also been redesigned to take into account a stainless
steel capillary.

PsiPort Mass directed fraction collection control
- PsiPort™ is a software application layer designed to help
accelerate compound isolation and auto-purification with preparative
LC/MS. It is specifically designed to provide an advantage in
automated purification for life science and pharmaceutical scientists.
- It is web-based providing a generic solution to data review
and data acquisition using tool sets from Microsoft based on .net
technology. Designed to meet the needs of medicinal and synthetic
chemists to track samples, fractions and associated data from
MS and UV detectors.
- PsiPort™ also supports third part devices such as the
Gilson 215 as a fraction collector or autosampler.
- Streamlining data management is the driving force behind LabSolutions
software providing full system security to help you achieve CFR
21 part 11 compliance and protect critical information to the
fullest extent possible.
- LabSolutions software includes full chromatogram and spectrum
processing, integrated quantitation, library searching and library
generation together with the most comprehensive reporting package
ever designed for LCMS. The philosophy is simple; provide the
best results.
