Great results from a tiny mass detector
Peptides
Excellent instrument. By using this, we increased the capacity of our lab. In addition, due to its user friendly software, undergraduate students love it. We are running daily several samples, usually products of our peptide synthesis lab, but not only. We have the mass detector in line with the PDA so we can have orthogonal detection. You can find in the web our latest publications. Now we are planning to advance our research in detection of small molecules or metabolites in human liquids... blood, serum, urine, etc...

Great instrument for routine screening of natural products.
Natural products
The instrument is quite robust for the type of application we use it for in drug discovery. It's user friendly and easy to maintain and troubleshoot. Even a new LCMS user would find easy to navigate around.

Good alternative to complex and more expensive technologies.
Impurities in pharmaceutical drugs
Good and cheap alternative to more complex mass technologies. Enables low concentration detection of analytes, although it does not provide fragmentation possibilities nor accurate mass.

This is a great, reliable, easy to use single quad mass spectrometer.
Reaction monitoring, analytical analysis
The Acquity QDa is an easy to use, robust single quad mass spectrometer. It has become an essential tool for our organic medicinal synthesis research for verifying intermediates and final products. It also has been extremely useful for a variety of analytical projects. I find the QDa very easy to use and maintain. It provides reproducible results. We also have a service contract with Waters and they are quick to respond and to repair any problems.

The ACQUITY QDa® Mass Detector gives you certainty above all else. You can minimize the risk of unexpected coelutions or components and confirms trace components with the analytical confidence of mass detection.
The ACQUITY QDa® Detector is a mass detector built around the needs of analytical scientists for chromatographic analysis. Robust, reliable and requiring no sample adjustments, it just integrates with your current LC, ACQUITY UPLC, ACQUITY UPC2 and purification systems.
You'll enhance the analytical value and productivity of each analysis, and you won't need to run all the additional assays or time-consuming alternative techniques or even wait for results from specialist labs that cost your laboratory productivity.
With the ACQUITY QDa® Detector, you now have information-rich mass spectral data to complement data from your current Waters® optical detectors, including the ACQUITY UPLC PDA, TUV, ELS, and FLR detectors, as well as the ACQUITY UPC² PDA Detector. This mass spectral information integrates seamlessly into the same workflow; routinely giving you more complete separation characterization.
