Great performance
Rating: 4.0

  • Application Area: Natural products and metabolites ID

"We’re quite happy with the performance of the equipment and the way of visualising the results, identification and quantification-based. Easy of use. Software can be tricky some times but you can deal with it."

Good instrument for routine analysis but not for rocket science.
Rating: 4.0

  • Application Area:Protein characterization

"The instrument is easy to setup and run the analysis with Waters Unifi software. All you need is on the same PC workstation: from data acquisition, processing up to reporting and archiving. Waters Unifi remove problematic data transfer. The cons however are to much limited options for user and even system administrator. For example if your system do not pass calibration one you can do is call the service. IMS is helpful but is not spectacular as described. "

The analytical specificity & advanced data processing dramatically affects our work.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Arctic marine bioprospecting

"Vion IMS QTof requires less set-up time, and because all the data is collected in one analysis, the need to reacquire is eliminated. Acquiring all data in one analysis combined with the added specificity from ion mobility provides Marbio researchers with the confidence to make better decisions, faster."

Super instrument if you can afford it
Rating: 4.3

  • Application Area:Food Analysis

"High-quality and reliable results. Very powerful software make data processing very easy. Ion-mobility is a must if you sample contains a lot of isomers."

Vion IMS QTof is a high resolution QTof mass spectrometer that delivers the selectivity of ion mobility to every scientist, for every analysis.

Does high resolution, accurate mass data always lead to the correct answer first time? Avoid additional confirmatory experiments by utilizing the selectivity of ion mobility. Featuring new geometry and including XS Ion Optics and the QuanTof2 detection system, the Vion IMS QTof  has the sensitivity and dynamic range to make ion mobility quantitative and routinely usable, enabling:

  • Easier data interpretation as ion mobility cleans up and simplifies every spectrum
  • Confident identification and quantification of analytes
  • Faster method development and higher sample throughput
  • Greater selectivity than conventional MS/MS with HDMSE

With Vion IMS QTof you can use the selectivity of ion mobility to quickly refine spectra and discount chromatographically co-eluting compounds and background interferences. Enabling you to characterize your compounds with confidence.

The ability to gather and process CCS data for every ion gives you more confidence in your data than ever before. Vion IMS QTof is driven by UNIFI scientific information system to deliver the most comprehensive analytical workflow, enabling you to target, identify, and review results in a single software platform. Make more informed decisions, faster.

CCS provides chromatographic retention time independent data points, enabling confident identification of your analytes and reducing the risk of false positives and false negatives. Even during initial sample analysis, without any retention time knowledge, you can use theoretical exact mass and CCS library values to identify unknown and unexpected components.

Applications:

  • Screening - Meeting legislative and regulatory demands requires the utmost confidence in your data. UNIFI informatics workflows integrate the value of CCS, reducing false positives and false negatives driving laboratory efficiency.
  • Pharma - The combination of UNIFI and Vion IMS QTof brings ion mobility to your drug discovery experiments while maintaing ease and efficiency you need for your routine Met ID processes.
  • Omics - A recurring challenge for omics studies is the identification and structural elucidation of metabolites, lipids, and peptides of interest. Incorporating Vion IMS QTof into your workflow gives you not only CSS data from every component, but also increase analytical space and resolution.
