GCMS-TQ8040 NX Triple Quad GC-MS/MS

Description

The Shimadzu GCMS-TQ8040 NX is the first triple quadrupole with 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. These three smart technologies contribute to Smart MRM, and provide an accurate, cost-effective, and easy-to-use triple quadrupole GCMS for routine analytical work.

Smart Productivity
  • 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
  • Smart MRM with flexible MS events prevents compounds from being lost or missed when retention times shift in the presence of a complex matrix.
  • Automatic Adjustment of Retention Times (AART) function updates retention times in both the acquisition and data processing methods after column maintenance, without changing chromatographic conditions or requiring multiple injections of standards

Smart Operation
  • MRM Optimization Tool automatically determines optimum transitions and collision energies for all compounds in a single sequence
  • The GCMS-TQ8040 NX can acquire data in the classic MRM mode, or in synchronous Scan/MRM mode for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative results

Smart Performance
  • Patented ion source’s design and uniform temperature prevent active spots and boost sensitivity during analysis. The OFF-AXIS ion optics eliminate chemical nose
  • Proprietary UFsweeper™ technology achieves high-speed MRM analysis up to 800 transitions per second
  • Advanced Scanning Speed Protocol (ASSP™) provides high-speed scanning control at 20,000 u/second
  • Simultaneous Scan/MRM analysis mode provides high-quality library searchable fragmentation spectra, and accurate low-level quantitative data in a single analysis

The GCMS Smart Database Series simplifies GC-MS/MS method development. The series is comprised of separate databases for analyzing pesticides, forensic toxicological substances, metabolites and environmental pollutants. Each database includes hundreds of related compounds with optimized transitions and collision energies, CAS registry numbers and retention indices (RI). The software series supports simultaneous high-sensitivity analysis of samples using GC-MS/MS, eliminating the need to configure complicated analysis conditions.
