Changed back to traditional GC oven.
Application Area: Analytical
"Fragile columns, cannot heat rapidly to high temps >300C without damaging and shortening column life."

Great capabilities and superior quality, with some room for improvement.
Application Area:Chemistry, industrial (oleochemicals)
"Excellent instrument for a broad variety of applications. We only use a fraction of the options that must be available. Love the option to run there or even 4 columns with one system, including 2d GC capabilities. Only drawback I've found is the inability to swap out the LTM columns."

When it isn't broken, the column's performance is ok. Not worth the premium paid for the technology.
Application Area:Analysis of complex organic mixtures
"The LTM system, while allowing fast GC; is difficult to install with the unions provided. The column side would fracture each time a carrier gas change (helium to hydrogen an vice versa) was done. Two fractures and the column end is too short to install."

Great Results
Application Area:Analyzing tobacco samples for FDA 93 HPHC list
"This mass spec coupled with the Agilent 7890 GC and Masshunter software has made setting up and running samples very easy. Good sensitivity levels."

As the great achievements with excellent data result, this instrument is very much a favourite.
Application Area:Chemicals and metabolites identification and bioanalysis. Biomonitoring.
"This instrument is easy to use, very stable and has low noise, cooling and heating very fast, and with careful maintenance and following the instrument caring and MS source cleaning instruction, we barely have trouble on it. And Agilent provide the excellent and convenient tech support to help our customer to answer questions, address the issues and solve the problems. The instrument price is affordable and very reasonable. "
The Agilent LTM (Low Thermal Mass) Series II gives fast results on large numbers of samples common in petrochemical, food testing, and pharmaceutical QC labs. The technology uses direct resistive column heating that allows rapid temperature programming with extremely fast cool-down. This results in significantly shorter analytical cycle times compared to conventional air bath GC ovens.
