TFS will demonstrate the analytical capabilities delivered by combining its Exactive liquid chromatography/mass-spectrometry (LC/MS) system with its Transcend technology for a complete LC/MS solution.
For challenging screening applications, including complex samples containing pesticides, metabolites or other target compounds, this configuration combines automated online sample preparation for high throughput with the dual benefits of ultra-high resolution and accurate mass.
Leveraging the mass-analyser technology of the Thermo Scientific Orbitrap platform, the Exactive delivers ultra-high resolution and accurate mass data to enable rapid characterisation of compounds in complex matrices.
The instrument streamlines many of the technical steps that normally require specialised setup and operation, and provides simultaneous qualitative and quantitative results.
By combining Exactive with the Transcend system, Thermo Fisher can deliver enhanced sample screening to more laboratories.
In particular, Thermo Scientific Turboflow technology within Transcend offers automated, online sample-preparation methodologies to simplify analytical workflows and increase data quality.
Turboflow technology permits direct injection of complex matrices, virtually eliminating upfront sample preparation and delivering reliable analysis in a fraction of the time, the company said.
