Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Exploris 120 mass spectrometer

Scientists working across small-molecule applications areas such as metabolomics, environmental analysis, metabolite identification, forensic toxicology and anti-doping require systems that support extensive, in-depth analysis of multiple complex samples, while simultaneously increasing output and decreasing costs. Thermo Fisher Scientific has released a high-resolution mass spectrometer that offers good measurement capabilities in a system developed for increased productivity.

The Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Exploris 120 mass spectrometer delivers qualitative and quantitative capabilities synonymous with Orbitrap high-resolution accurate-mass spectrometry (HRAM), supporting consistent data quality and decision-making. The system features fast scanning modes and rapid polarity switching that result in comprehensive sample coverage and increased productivity — delivering benefits for high-throughput screening and quantitation assays.

The product was designed specifically for laboratories to safeguard their current assays and enhance their provision of high-throughput and differentiated services, while simultaneously minimising required training and method development times. Performance is further enhanced with compatibility to Thermo Fisher’s latest software updates.

With Thermo Scientific Compound Discoverer 3.2 software, small-molecule researchers are supported through extensive characterisation capabilities, access to multiple mass spectral fragmentation library and structural database sources. Access to the large Thermo Scientific mzCloud mass spectral fragmentation library enhances connectivity and characterisation for small-molecule applications to help identify compounds. Routine laboratories will meanwhile benefit from Thermo Scientific TraceFinder 5.1 software, which simplifies and optimises the high-throughput screening and quantitation of compounds with improved integration of difficult peaks and streamlined reporting.
