SCIEX QTRAP 6500+ LC-MS/MS System

The SCIEX QTRAP 6500+ LC-MS/MS System achieves improved sensitivity and selectivity over previous-generation systems for small molecule quantitation. It integrates with the BioBA Solution for large molecule quantitation, creating a powerful workflow system for biologics bioanalysis.

The system offers features that improve improve small and large molecule quant, such as the multicomponent IonDrive Technology with the IonDrive High Energy Detector+ (HED). The increased detection area delivers sensitivity improvements in positive mode ionisation and negative mode ionisation in the low mass region, depending on the analyte.

The system delivers enhanced selectivity without compromising MRM sensitivity. The QTRAP scan function of MS3 (MS/MS/MS) adds an additional level of mass filtering, while the SelexION+ ion mobility technology provides an orthogonal separation prior to mass separation. The SelexION+ system has a 2x increase in ion transmission and offers labs yet another tool for eliminating isobaric background interferences in complex assays, making quantitation in complex samples easier and less time-consuming. The scan functions offered by the system, including enhanced mass scans (EMS), enhanced resolution scans (ER) and enhanced product ion scans (EPI), deliver maximum flexibility and workflow options for researchers whose work extends beyond quantitation alone.

The sensitivity and selectivity delivered by the device is designed to help users see it all — from low mass to high mass compounds, in positive or negative polarity — in a single injection, not only in small and large molecule bioanalysis, but also across applications such as comprehensive food residue monitoring, environmental analysis, lipid analysis and forensic drug screening.
