Used THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Fusion Lumos #293744850 for sale

THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Fusion Lumos is a cutting-edge mass spectrometer that combines the power of two complementary technologies - the Orbitrap mass analyzer and the quadrupole-ion trap - to offer exceptional performance in a wide range of applications. This hybrid instrument is designed to provide high-resolution, accurate mass measurements, and superior sensitivity for the analysis of complex samples in proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, and small molecule research. At the heart of Orbitrap Fusion Lumos is the Orbitrap mass analyzer, a unique technology that enables high-resolution, accurate mass measurements with outstanding precision. The Orbitrap analyzer operates by trapping ions in a stable electrostatic field and then subjecting them to oscillating electric fields to generate a characteristic frequency. The resulting signal is detected and processed to provide highly accurate mass measurements, making the Orbitrap analyzer ideal for the identification and quantification of complex mixtures. In addition to the Orbitrap mass analyzer, the Fusion Lumos also features a quadrupole-ion trap, which provides additional selectivity and flexibility in ion isolation and fragmentation. The quadrupole-ion trap can be used to selectively isolate specific ions from a complex sample and then induce fragmentation through collision-induced dissociation (CID) or higher-energy collisional dissociation (HCD). This capability allows researchers to obtain comprehensive structural information about the analytes in their samples, enabling advanced proteomics and metabolomics studies. The Fusion Lumos is equipped with advanced data acquisition and processing capabilities, including intelligent data-driven acquisition (IDDA) and synchronous precursor selection (SPS) technologies. These features enable efficient and effective data acquisition by dynamically adjusting acquisition parameters based on real-time data analysis, leading to improved sensitivity and throughput in complex samples. The SPS technology allows for the simultaneous isolation and fragmentation of multiple precursor ions, increasing the depth of coverage and enhancing the structural information obtained from the sample. Furthermore, the Fusion Lumos offers a range of fragmentation options, including CID, HCD, electron transfer dissociation (ETD), and electron transfer higher-energy collisional dissociation (EThcD), allowing researchers to tailor the fragmentation methods to their specific analytical needs. This flexibility makes the instrument well-suited for a variety of applications, from protein identification and characterization to the analysis of post-translational modifications and complex metabolite mixtures. The instrument also features a high-performance dual-pressure linear ion trap, which enables rapid and efficient ion trapping and transfer, improving sensitivity and dynamic range in complex samples. The dual-pressure linear ion trap can be used for both ion accumulation and mass analysis, providing enhanced sensitivity for low-abundance analytes and improved detection limits in challenging samples. Overall, THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Fusion Lumos is a state-of-the-art mass spectrometer that offers unparalleled performance in terms of resolution, sensitivity, and flexibility. Its combination of advanced technologies, innovative features, and comprehensive capabilities makes it an indispensable tool for researchers and scientists working in the fields of proteomics, metabolomics, and small molecule research, enabling groundbreaking discoveries and advancements in the understanding of complex biological systems.
