Description
The AB SCIEX QTRAP® 5500 LC/MS/MS system is the next-generation technology which is designed to excel at metabolite identification, detection and confirmation of low-level pesticides, and protein/peptide quantitation for biomarker verification and validation. Redesigned from the ground up using our new, fast eQTM electronics, but bred from our industry standard triple quadrupole line of mass spectrometers, the QTRAP® 5500 system brings in a new era of performance.
The QTRAP® 5500 system also houses the most sensitive ion trap in the world-the all new, patented Linear AcceleratorTM trap along with offering ultra-fast scan speeds, and full MS3 capabilities.
Features of the QTRAP® 5500 LC/MS/MS system:
- Perform multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) for quantitation using this high-sensitivity triple quadrupole system.
- Identify, characterize, and quantitate metabolites more quickly and easily.
- Discover and quantitate targeted biomarkers.
- Enable high-sensitivity full-scan MS, MS/MS, and MS3 with high-selectivity from true triple quadrupole precursor ion (PI) and neutral loss (NL) scans.
