Used APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS / ABI / MDS SCIEX API 4500 #9288608 for sale

APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS / ABI / MDS SCIEX API 4500 is a quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer designed for life science applications. It features a mass range from m/z 50 to 4000, a 3 cm orthogonal acceleration quadrupole, a collision cell pressure range of approximately 3-50 mbar, and a linear ion trap filament current range from 0.5 to 6.0 mA. The spectrometer is designed to deliver high resolution, high sensitivity and accurate mass spectra for proteins, peptides, oligonucleotides, small molecules, and metabolites. ABI API 4500 is optimized for proteomics applications, enabling the characterization of post-translational modification (PTM) including phosphorylation, and amino acid sequence variants. The detector of the spectrometer comprises a linear ion trap which increases ion detection accuracy and signals stability. It further features precision ion mobility (IMS) technology developed by SCIEX, which provides higher resolution data. Additionally, the spectrometer is also equipped with an ion optics assembly comprising several imaging lenses, apertures, mirrors, and other components which functions as an ion beam power amplifier, providing higher sensitivity for analysis of molecules with low concentrations. MDS SCIEX API 4500 is equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) interface which enables fast sample introduction and sample transfer to the mass analyzer. Its software offers libraries for sample identification, a library manager, and a real-time search engine. Additionally, it has an autosampler port and a temperature-controlled ion source assembly to regulate the sample analysis temperature. The spectrometer has a re-engineered analyzer which enables greater flexibility, efficiency, and ease-of-use. Its comprehensive connectivity options include ethernet, USB, and Wi-Fi. It is designed for use in both academic and industry research, offering faster data acquisition and better accuracy than other mass spectrometers. Its user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) makes it easy to operate. APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS API 4500 is an advanced quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer suitable for research in life sciences. Its optimized design, accurate mass spectra analysis, post-translational modification characterization, and precise ion mobility technology enable detailed analysis of proteins, peptides, oligonucleotides, small molecules, and metabolites.
