This equipment complies but is not all right for low concentrations of some analytes
Application Area: SVOCs analysis in air matrixes
"Is really easy to go through the menus and prepare methods up, but the offline software is more difficult to get use to. Also, main limitation is that LOD is not as low as other equipments for the same analysis."

Great results nice instrument.
Application Area:Analysis of pesticides in food
"The instrument is quite strong and durable. repeatability in accordance with the acceptance criteria. The instrument is suitable for pesticide analysis at a LOQ of 0.005 mg/kg. When compared to other brands, the instrument performs admirably. The software that comes with the instrument is very flexible, giving you more options for integrating peaks. The final results view is also excellent, allowing you to easily access any data. The data is also kept securely so that no one can tamper with it."

Recommend to all enthusiasts of chromatography - work your way!
Application Area:Method development, pesticides and their metabolites determination
"Equipment works well. I got a lot of service assistance. The equipment is stable and the operating parameters are maintained for quite a long time. The source does not get dirty as quickly as in older versions and equipments of competing companies. They are equipped with solutions that save gases and electricity consumption. The software, which is very complex, leaves to be desired, and not all functions and parameters are needed for routine analyzes. There are too many options where the user can get confused. And the manual itself does not meet the needs of all user industries."

"The TQ8040 has performed superbly for both our fast MS/MS methods and general unknown scouting. The scan speed and short switching time allows for quality MS/MS data while also collecting scan information. Provided manuals, videos, and photo instructions allow technicians and students to easily understand how to swap a MS source, autotune, or generate an MRM. We swap sources regularly and have not observed deleterious effects through the handling."

"The Shimadzu GCMS-TQ8040 MRM Optimization Tool automatically determines optimum transitions and collision energies for all compounds in a single sequence, and seamlessly incorporates them into the Smart Database Series for fully automated MRM method development. Using flexible MS events, the Smart MRM function routinely determines the best dwell and loop times for >400 compounds in a single method, providing optimum precision and sensitivity."

Featuring Smart Productivity for high-efficiency sample throughput, Smart Operation for quick and easy method development, and Smart Performance for low detection limits and Scan/MRM, the GCMS-TQ8040 NX is a cost-effective, easy-to-use triple quadrupole GCMS for routine analytical work.
With over 32,000 MRM transitions in a single run, the GCMS-TQ8040 NX with Smart MRM can combine over 400 compounds into a single MRM method without sacrificing sensitivity or selectivity, doubling or even tripling laboratory productivity. This results in added throughput before routine maintenance is required and faster return on investment.
The Shimadzu GCMS-TQ8040 NX MRM Optimization Tool automatically determines optimum transitions and collision energies for all compounds in a single sequence, and seamlessly incorporates them into the Smart Database Series for fully automated MRM method development. Using flexible MS events, the Smart MRM function routinely determines the best dwell and loop times for >400 compounds in a single method, providing optimum precision and sensitivity.
The GCMS-TQ8040 NX can acquire data in the classic MRM mode, or in synchronous Scan/MRM mode for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative results. The Scan/MRM mode simultaneously acquires accurate library-searchable mass spectra and low-level MRM quantitation in a single analysis – a critical function when sample volume is limited.
Shimadzu’s proprietary UFsweeper™ technology achieves high-speed MRM analysis up to 800 transitions per second. The Advanced Scanning Speed Protocol (ASSP™) provides high-speed scanning control at 20,000 u/second. ASSP and simultaneous Scan/MRM analysis mode provides high-quality library searchable fragmentation spectra, and accurate low-level quantitative data in a single analysis.
This efficient design provides optimum performance in all analysis modes: MRM, SIM, Scan, Scan/MRM, Scan/SIM, Neutral Loss, Product Ion Scan, Precursor Ion Scan and combination modes.
