Shimadzu Quadrupole Time-of-Flight (QTOF) mass spectrometer system has been designed with technologies developed for LC-MS series models resulting in highest mass accuracy and stability. Shimadzu’s proprietary high precision temperature control system inhibits even tiny mass variations caused by external factors, so that the system can be used to measure accurate mass values without worrying about mass calibration. The stable positive/negative high-speed polarity switching technology enables the simultaneous analysis of positive ions/negative ions, offering unique capability for high-confidence identification of challenging compounds and high-throughput screening of multiple unknowns.
iMScope QT is Shimadzu's flagship model for MS imaging with a LC-MS QTOF. Combined analysis is enabled through fusion of MS images with optical microscope observations, providing both distribution information and quantitative analysis.
