Used THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Fusion #293825677 for sale

THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Fusion is a high-end mass spectrometer designed for protein-based research applications. It's a quadrupole-Orbitrap hybrid instrument that offers robust performance for both targeted quantification and high-throughput top-down proteomics. It is composed of a linear quadrupole ion guide, a hexapole ion guide, and an Orbitrap analyzer. The linear quadrupole mass filter acts as a pre-ionizer for high- and low-mass ions, allowing the instrument to independently control the transmission of ions with different targeted m/z values. The hexapole ion guides provide tandem mass spectrometry capabilities by precisely controlling the ions as they enter the Orbitrap analyzer. The analyzer uses a Fourier transform of charges spinning within a set of electromagnetic fields to measure the mass-to-charge ratio of the ions. The data generated is nearly isotopic-resolved, with high sensitivity and accuracy, making it well-suited for protein characterization and quantification. Orbitrap Fusion also features several specialized features such as a heated capillary, which increases sensitivity and helps preserve proteins and small molecules; an o-ring seal on the collar, which keeps ions inside the quadrupole, enhancing stability; and a series of RF ion trap lenses, which reduce sample losses and maximize ion detection. THERMO SCIENTIFIC Orbitrap Fusion can be used for a range of protein-based applications, from sample preparation, to nanoLC-MS/MS, to intact protein and intact peptide analysis. The instrument generates high-throughput data with excellent sensitivity, accuracy, and resolution, which make it ideal for top-down proteomics and other quantitative applications. It can be used in a wide array of laboratory environments, such as biochemistry, biophysics, and drug discovery. Overall, Orbitrap Fusion is an advanced, versatile spectrometer that is suited for protein-based research applications. It boasts excellent sensitivity and accuracy, strong performance, and great stability.
