Used APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS / ABI / MDS SCIEX API 3200 #9383196 for sale

APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS / ABI / MDS SCIEX API 3200 is a versatile and high-performance tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometer designed for the analysis of a wide range of samples. The equipment is well-suited for complex analyses that require high resolution and sensitivity, such as those involving metabolites, proteins, peptides and small molecules. The system utilizes both single-quadrupole and triple-quadrupole scanners and is designed for quantitative and qualitative analysis of complex samples. The three main components of the unit include the injection machine, the quadrupole analyzers and the ion detector. The sample is drawn into the injection tool, which is composed of a vacuum and rapid scanning asset that utilizes a two stage vacuum interface (TSVI) to control sample introduction and response. The sample is then nebulized into a mixture of gas and particles, which is directed into the first quadrupole. The first quadrupole is the fragmentation analyzer, which focuses the ions on the ion detector. The second quadrupole acts as the filter, trapping and separating the desired ions and directing them into the third quadrupole. The third and fourth quadrupoles are the analyzers, focusing and separating the ions into specific frequencies. The fifth, and final, quadrupole is the ion detector, which is comprised of a time-of-flight (TOF) detector and a single-channel electron multiplier (SCEM). The model also offers a wide range of technology-driven enhancements, which include enhanced quadrupole performance, low-ion-source drift levels, windowless interaction regions, convenient ruggedization of cables, integration of a TSVI for better signal management and a full-range surface projection. Additionally, it offers a range of software enhancements such as HPLC/MS peak matching, signal processing and dependent automated quantitation. The equipment is capable of operating with high throughput and reliability, making it a top choice for clinical and pharmacological applications. Moreover, its exceptional ion transmission ensures stringent sensitivity and precision, making it an excellent choice for ultra-sensitive analysis. Its straightforward design and user-friendly software make it easy to operate, while its durable construction and varied sample introduction features make it an attractive option in a range of laboratory environments. Overall, ABI API 3200 is a powerful and versatile instrument that is well-suited for a wide range of applications.
