“One thing on the Orbitrap Ascend Tribrid MS that is really exciting is the new ion routing multiples, and how by moving the collision cell forward, the speed of the system has gotten even faster from the last model. That means that we can dig deeper in a sample, and we can detect more things in a shorter period of time”

Boost selectivity and enhance your proteomics workflow with FAIMS Pro Interface

High-Field Asymmetric waveform Ion Mobility Spectrometry (FAIMS) can be used to optimize ion selectivity and reduce chemical backgrounds during mass spectrometry assays. FAIMS selectivity successfully prevents interferences from co-eluting compounds and increases signal to noise ratios by 100-fold or higher.
