Discover How High Resolution GC Orbitrap Technology Enables Analysis of Low Level Pesticides in Complex Matrices

Paul Silcock, Senior Marketing Manager at Thermo Fisher Scientific, discusses how GC Orbitrap technology offers both qualitative and quantitative analysis, with untargeted acquisition and high selectivity. This enables detection of low level samples in complex matrices, which is very important for the pesticides field.

Thermo Scientific™ Q Exactive™ GC Orbitrap™ GC-MS/MS System

Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Thermo Scientific™ Q Exactive™ GC system is the first-ever combination of high resolution gas chromatography with high-resolution/accurate-mass (HR/AM) Orbitrap detection for the most comprehensive sample characterization. This easy-to-use system provides the most comprehensive characterization of samples in a single analysis for the highest confidence in compound discovery, identification, and quantitation. Building upon the flexible modularity of the Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1300 Series GC, including user-exchangeable injectors and detectors, the Q Exactive GC system has the quantitative power of a GC triple quadrupole MS combined with the high precision, full scan high-resolution/accurate-mass capability that only Orbitrap technology can offer.   Key Features: Advanced quadrupole technology (AQT) for high transmission of selected masses Resolving power up to 120,000 at m/z 200 Part-per-trillion-level sensitivity Thermo Scientific™ Extractabrite™ ion source for robust, rugged electron impact (EI) and chemical ionization (CI) performance Curved linear C-trap for precise ion injection HCD collision cell for higher energy collisional dissociation provides MS/MS ion characterization Intelligent identification software elucidates the nature of each injected sample. Applications: Untargeted and targeted metabolomics Food and beverage Industrial analyses Environmental Pharmaceutical Clinical and toxicology
