Used THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Elite #9302194 for sale

THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Elite is a high-resolution mass spectrometer with a highly accurate mass measurement and ultra-high resolution capabilities. The instrument is designed to be used for analytical applications such as metabolomics, proteomics, and structural determination. The equipment is composed of four main parts; the active ion source, ion optics, analyzer, and detector. The mass spectrometer utilizes an active ion source which relies on Electrospray Ionization (ESI) technology in order to create charged ions from the sample. The ionization process is highly efficient, creating intact ions with minimal fragmentation. The ion optics consist of three components - the reflectron, duoplasmatron, and a vacuum system. The reflectron is a device which provides a voltage gradient between two electrodes giving the ions energy. The duoplasmatron produces an even, highly compressed beam of ions, directing them to the analyzer. The vacuum unit prevents the contamination of the sample and maintains a stable atmosphere inside the spectrometer. The Orbitrap's analyzer is composed of an array of electrodes which are separated into four segments - the Storage Ring, Separator, Trap Mass, and Analyzer. The storage ring stores the ions after they are created by the ion source and contains a magnetic field which controls the velocity of the ions in the trap. The separator contains a set of electrodes which split the sample into multiple components for the Trap Mass portion. The Trap Mass is the key component of the machine and is composed of microfabricated electrodes which capture and measure the mass of the ions. The orbitrap analyzer is used to scan the ions stored in the trap, producing a highly accurate spectrum of the sample's composition. The final step of the tool is the detector which identifies and measures the individual ions emitted by the analyzer. Orbitrap Elite uses a hybrid single-photon detector (SID) which enables fast detection down to very low ion mass range. THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Elite is a capable and versatile mass spectrometer, providing ultra-high resolution capabilities and accurate mass measurement for a wide range of applications. The instrument is efficient and easy to use, making it an ideal choice for metabolomics, proteomics, and structural determination.
