Used THERMO FINNIGAN LCQ Advantage #9239603 for sale

THERMO FINNIGAN LCQ Advantage is a state-of-the art high performance Fourier Transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometer that is used for detailed, accurate analysis of large molecules, such as proteins and polymers. It has the ability to detect molecules up to the mass/charge ratio of 1,200 Dalton. This makes it highly suitable for analyzing complex samples like blood, soils, and soils. LCQ Advantage has an improved design compared to its predecessors, called the "Optimized Ion Path", which operates more efficiently and adds additional speed and sensitivity. THERMO FINNIGAN LCQ Advantage is equipped with a QuadraPol ion guide, the latest version of the QuadraPol ion guide technology used in previous THERMO FINNIGAN LCQs. It is an alternative to the traditional ion traps, and allows more efficient ion transmission and improved fragmentation. The improved QuadraPol ion guide design enables both low-mass and higher-mass analytes to be optimized individually. LCQ Advantage also has a unique automatic source tuning capability that adjusts the ion source parameters during full scan, rapidly tuning the instrument to its best possible performance. THERMO FINNIGAN LCQ Advantage has an expanded range of scan parameters for peak and profile monitoring, as well as improved scan resolution with enhanced detection sensitivities. The instrument is also fully computer-controlled, so analytical tests can be conveniently and quickly performed. Moreover, it is equipped with Thermo Scientific™ Xcalibur software for data handling and processing. Furthermore, LCQ Advantage has a wide range of techniques including multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), targeted SIM, enhanced product ion scanning (EPI), and dynamic SIM. With these techniques, it is possible to synthesize multiple scan types in a single experiment for optimized detection of analytes with varying abundances across a wide mass range. In conclusion, THERMO FINNIGAN LCQ Advantage is a state-of-the-art spectrometer that provides better flexibility, accuracy, and sensitivity than its predecessors. With its unique Optimized Ion Path of the QuadraPol ion guide, enhanced detection sensitivities, and wide range of sophisticated analytical techniques, it is ideal for analyzing complex samples like soils, plants and blood.
