Mass Spectrometry
AB Sciex QTRAP 4000 MS

AB Sciex QTRAP 4000 MS

AB Sciex QTRAP 4000 MS

This instrument is used for LC-MS/MS. Tandem quadrupole and ion trap mass spectrometers are ideal for targeted and quantitative studies. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) is used on these instruments to selectively measure specific metabolites and their internal standard, providing absolute quantitation.

Mass Spectrometry
AB Sciex QTRAP 5500 MS

AB Sciex QTRAP 5500 MS

AB Sciex QTRAP 5500 MS

Advanced tandem quadrupole and ion trap mass spectrometer featuring enhanced sensitivity and speed. This instrument provides superior performance for targeted quantitative analyses with Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) capabilities for precise metabolite quantification.

Liquid Chromatography
Agilent 1290 Infinity II UHPLC

Agilent 1290 Infinity II UHPLC

Agilent 1290 Infinity II UHPLC

High-performance liquid chromatography is one of the most powerful and versatile analytical techniques for separation, identification, and quantification of metabolites present in different biofluids and plant materials. Detectors coupled to HPLC include ultra-violet (UV), fluorescence, and evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD).

Gas Chromatography
Agilent 7890A GC-MS

Agilent 7890A GC-MS

Agilent 7890A GC-MS

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry is a very powerful technique and has been regarded as the gold standard for analyzing lipids, drug metabolites and environmental analysis for many years. The identification is based on both retention time and mass spectrum (compound's specific fragmentation pattern).

Mass Spectrometry
Bruker maXis QTOF MS

Bruker maXis QTOF MS

Bruker maXis QTOF MS

Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry instrumentation capable of tandem quadrupole, ion trap analysis for both targeted and untargeted studies. This powerful chemical identification technique combines physical separation via liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry for mass analysis, providing high sensitivity and selectivity.

NMR Spectroscopy
NMR 700 MHz Bruker Cold Probe

NMR 700 MHz Bruker Cold Probe

NMR 700 MHz Bruker Cold Probe

Nuclear magnetic resonance is a powerful spectroscopic technique that measures the absorption of radio-frequency radiation by different nuclei when placed under a strong magnetic field. NMR is unique as one of the few non-destructive methods for analyzing 3D structure and molecular dynamics.

Support Equipment
