World Fastest* Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer The LCMS-8030 combines the power of triple quadrupole mass spectrometry with unmatched speed to provide the ideal complement to its UHPLC systems. The LCMS-8030 features ultrafast multiple reaction monitoring transitions, enabling data acquisition with up to 500 different channels per second. The improvements to the electronics provide ultrafast mass spectrum measurement speeds of 15,000 u/sec without sacrificing sensitivity or resolution, and ultrafast polarity switching (15msec) for the most information without signal deterioration. UFsweeper™, a unique technology created by Shimadzu, accelerates ions out of the collision cell by forming a pseudo-potential surface. The result is high-efficiency collision-induced dissociation and ultrafast ion transport, reducing the sensitivity losses and cross talk observed on other systems. The LCMS-8030’s robust design allows maximum uptime, resulting in a system that can handle most complex matrices. Maintenance of the desolvation line without breaking vacuum minimizes instrument downtime. *Based on our survey (as of August 2010)

Gas Chromatographs Gas chromatographs analyze samples qualitatively and quantitatively. After evaporation of the sample, the different components are separated on a column and subsequently sent to the detection system. By comparing with samples of known concentrations, the concentration in an unknown sample can be determined. Shimadzu GC-2010 Plus enables reliable trace analysis utilizing detectors such as FID and FPD that feature best-in-class sensitivity. Newly introduced Advanced Flow Technology reduces analysis times, provides enhanced chromatographic resolution, and enables application-specific configurations, such as multidimensional GC, backflush, and detector splitting and switching systems, without compromising performance. The GC-2014 can be used for both capillary and packed column analysis. Fully configured systems to address a range of analysis requirements, from environmental and petrochemical to biofuels and greenhouse gases, are available.

Multidimensional Chromatography Multidimensional methods allow the analysis of complex samples in a few steps using standard hardware (LC and/or GC) with some special parts for the modulation between the dimensions. Beside the coupling of several columns with the same properties for highest resolution, combinations of chemically different stationary phases are also used. These approaches enable the increase of the peak capacity and can help to avoid co-elution as can happen in single dimension chromatography.
