Very easy to use
Intact Mass and peptide mapping analysis
A great easy to use instrument when working
Review Date: 23 Mar 2023 | Waters
Absolutely very good results
Detection of residual chemical compounds, confirmatory identification of small organic molecules
The LC-MS is a powerful tool for the detection of residual chemical compounds, confirmatory identification of small organic molecules, and confirmation and quantitation of contaminants and adulterants in pharmaceutical and food samples, for example, vanilla. The instrument is very effective when used and achieves high-quality results which are also reproducible plus I gave good ratings for the equipment as it became easy to use after a very good after-sale service and training and it was also affordable to our institution. My work experience was enjoyable. There were very positive benefits and the instrument was easily hyphenated to another instrument like Mass spectrometers. A typical day included collection logging into their computer and get to analyse and peruse the data that I had analysed
