Product news

JEOL has concluded an OEM agreement with Zoex Corporation to offer the Zoex comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC x GC) technology with the new JEOL AccuTOF GCV 4G high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer system.

“We are very excited about the partnership with Zoex. The combination of comprehensive two-dimensional GC with high-resolution, high-sensitivity mass spectrometry is a very powerful platform for the analysis of complex mixtures” says Robert B. Cody, Product Manager for Mass Spectrometry at JEOL USA, Inc.

The AccuTOF GCV 4G’s unique capability to easily switch between electron ionization (EI) and field ionization (FI) mode combines the power of database searching in EI mode with unambiguous molecular weight information in FI mode. Unlike chemical ionization (CI), field ionization does not require a reagent gas and FI mass spectra are very simple, consisting of molecular ions with little or no fragmentation. Accurate mass measurements can be carried out in either EI or FI mode, or with the optional CI ion source. The AccuTOF GCV 4G is the only mass spectrometer system that offers GC x GC with all three ionization modes: EI, FI, and CI to produce high-resolution accurate-mass spectra.

The combination of Zoex Corporation’s proven thermal modulation technology and GC Image software with the JEOL AccuTOF GCV 4G offers unparalleled analytical performance for complex mixture analysis.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors.

It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
