Used WATERS / MICROMASS LC / MS / Mass spectrometer #293666661 for sale

WATERS / MICROMASS LC / MS / Mass spectrometer is a powerful, versatile, and highly accurate spectrometric instrument used for a variety of analytical applications. It combines liquid chromatography (LC) and mass spectrometry (MS) into one system, allowing for the simultaneous analysis of compounds in mixtures. The LC component of the instrument provides fast, efficient separation of compounds in solution, allowing for the detailed characterization of complex mixtures. The LC utilizes a high-pressure pump to draw solution through a pair of columns containing an appropriate liquid chromatography (LC) stationary phase. As the compounds move through the LC columns, they are separated based on properties such as polarity, size, and hydrophobicity. This separation of individual compounds occurs within minutes and is essential for compound identification and quantification. The MS component of the instrument detects and quantifies individual compounds. A mass spectrometer uses an ionizing source to transform the molecules in the sample solution into ions. These ions are then steered towards the analyzing stage of the instrument, which can separate the ions into distinct peaks, each corresponding to a unique compound. This allows scientists to accurately identify and quantify the components of a sample with great precision. WATERS LC / MS / Mass spectrometer is a powerful analytical tool that can be used to isolate and characterize molecules in complex mixtures. The instrument can be used for a variety of applications such as drug discovery, environmental monitoring, quality control, food safety, and metabolomics. The highly sensitive and accurate analysis capabilities make this instrument a valuable tool in many scientific, industrial, and medical settings.
