LC-HRMS/MS, QExactive HF, Thermo Scientific

The QExactive Orbitrap HF system consists of a high resolution mass spectrometer coupled to an UPLC system. Based on the high mass accuracy it is ideal for a variety of targeted and untargeted metabolomics applications including stable isotope assisted approaches. The high scan rates offer optimal conditions for fast polarity switching methods. MS/MS fragmentation can be achieved via data dependent as well as data independent mode.
