  • High Throughput Data Acquisition: Supports >500 MRM transitions/sec to match UHPLC peak capacity.

  • Integrated with 1290 Infinity III UHPLC: State-of-the-art chromatography with up to 1300 bar pressure, ultra-low carryover, and superior injection precision.

  • MRM & Dynamic MRM (dMRM): Reduces noise and increases robustness in complex sample workflows.

  • Jet Stream ESI Source: Maximizes desolvation and ion focusing for better sensitivity and precision.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Full 21 CFR Part 11 support for secure data handling in GMP/GLP laboratories.

  • MassHunter Software Suite: Advanced quantitation, method optimization, compliance-ready reporting, and data integrity tools.


Applications:

  • Pharmaceutical R&D and QA/QC: Pharmacokinetics, DMPK, impurity profiling, and clinical bioanalysis.

  • Biopharmaceutical Analysis: Targeted peptide/protein quantitation, process monitoring, and stability studies.

  • Food Safety: Trace detection of pesticides, veterinary drugs, mycotoxins, contaminants, and authenticity testing.

  • Environmental Analysis: Emerging contaminants, endocrine disruptors, and pharmaceuticals in water, soil, and air.

  • Clinical & Forensic Toxicology: Screening and quantitation of drugs of abuse, metabolites, and toxicants.

  • Metabolomics & Lipidomics: Targeted quantitation of metabolites, lipids, and small molecules in biological research.

  • Regulated Laboratory Workflows: Designed for GLP/GMP labs requiring validated reporting and compliance.
