Waters' Mass Spectrometry product to accelerate Discovery, Efficiency and Productivity
Our Bureau, Bangalore | Friday, June 27, 2008, 08:00 Hrs  [IST]

Waters has developed a new mass spectrometry (MS) innovation product, XevoTM TQ MS System. The product is an advanced tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer which will now allow scientists with varying levels of MS expertise to quickly produce the highest quality data with confidence.

The company is also previewing its new Trizaic UPLC System with nanoTile technology, a new Ultra Performance LC separations platform for both large and small-molecule applications. This equipment will deliver information rich, high-sensitivity analyses when coupled to Waters Synapt High Definition MS (HDMS) and Synapt MS Systems. Other products that will be introduced include the Verify High Definition Proteomics System, the nanoACQUITY UPLC System with 2D Technology, and the Atmospheric Solids Analysis Probe (ASAP).

"Mass spectrometry is a vital analytical tool for a wide variety of applications including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food safety, environmental," said Art Caputo, executive vice president and president of the Waters Division. "Waters is meeting customers' needs by bringing to market technology that allows laboratories to be more efficient and productive and makes high-performance capabilities available to scientists in various disciplines".

The Xevo TQ MS System is an advanced tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer designed to deliver unrivalled performance and functionality. It uses innovative IntelliStart and ScanWave technologies to deliver versatility and advanced quantitative capability to a broader range of scientists.

IntelliStart is new technology that simplifies instrument setup and time-intensive troubleshooting. It automatically ensures the system is ready for use by performing mass calibration, setting MS resolution, generating compound-specific MS methods (SIR or MRM) and optimizing API source conditions for specific analytical conditions plus much more.

The system operating under MassLynx Software is equipped with a unique collision cell that can be operated in conventional T-Wave1-enabled mode or in a new ScanWave-enabled mode. The ScanWave is an innovative use of T-Wave collision cell technology that improves duty cycle and significantly enhances the full scan capability to meet the demands of today's complex analyses. This allows scientists to more easily confirm the identities and structures of targeted analytes.
