Separation technologies such as liquid chromatography (LC) and mass spectrometry (MS) are the principal analysis techniques for identifying and quantifying compounds. Thermo Scientific recently announced that multiple liquid chromatography (LC) options combined with the speed of their new Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer - TSQ Fortis MS can help analyze hundreds of samples every day. This unit offers robust and fast analysis with LC-MS solvents for clinical research laboratories.
This mass spectrometer along with the company's liquid chromatography instruments is designed for applications that demand an optimal blend of speed, robustness, and class-leading sensitivity for quantitation of compounds in biological matrices by users with varying levels of expertise. It helps increase productivity, with reliability and robustness, for labs focused on performing targeted quantitation.
Designed for ease, the TSQ Fortis MS platform features -
- Fast and robust quantitation for every environmental and food safety workflow
- Simplified user maintenance and intuitive software experience
- High throughput to analyze hundreds of samples and numerous compounds with short turnaround times
- Enhanced confidence in data due to outstanding robustness that prolongs instrument uptime.
This system's integrated workflow-driven software and solutions streamline everyday tasks from instrument optimization and troubleshooting to routine method development and results reporting. It provides more ease and comprehensive workflows empowering the daily quantitative requirements of pharmaceutical labs. The system makes it easier to meet today's demands by confidently answering more complex questions per sample, while achieving reproducible results.
Thermo Scientific recently showcased this new TSQ Fortis Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer at the AACC meeting held from July 29 - August 2 at McCormick Place in Chicago, at booth no. 3831. The platform is built on a foundation of shared hardware and software components and can be paired with a range of high performance Thermo Scientific liquid chromatography systems, enabling customers to go from single-sample-based experiments to validation to routine high-volume screening and quantification.
Evett Kruka, Vice President and General Manager, Life Sciences Mass Spectrometry, Thermo Fisher says that the TSQ Fortis-MS is a robust instrument that lets data scientists answer more complex questions per sample with the required data quality and confidence.
