Unmatched simultaneous quantitative and qualitative analysis

TripleTrapTM scanning with QTRAP® Technology Unique to AB SCIEX mass spec platforms, QTRAP Technology delivers a 100X increase in full scan sensitivity over basic triple quads enhancing qualitative workflows while the advantage of simultaneous quantitation and library searching workflows.

  • Simultaneously quantitate MRMs and perform full scan library searches for non-targeted contaminants
  • Achieve a 100X increase in full scan sensitivity over triple quads providing an enhanced level of confidence for forensic toxicology applications
  • Boost selectivity with quantitative MRM3 workflows - and reduce the need for extensive sample cleanup
  • Obtain comprehensive peptide sequence confirmation and simplify MRM assay development for peptide quantitation.

 

High confidence library searching and Fast eQTM electronics for UHPLC  The 4500 series uses proven eQTM electronics delivering polarity switching speeds of 50 ms and scan speeds of 20,000 Da/sec,creating a potent solution for detecting unexpected contaminants.  Combined with a single comprehensive library of thousands of QTRAP spectra for library matching, contaminants at the lowest levels can be confidently identified on a UHPLC time scale

MRM3  - Enhanced selectivity  MRM3 workflows provide enhanced quantitative selectivity when high background or challenging co-eluting interferences make standard MRM quantitation difficult.  This type of higher selectivity workflow can facilitate the quantitation of tryptic peptides in complex matrices and help avoid the need for labor intensive chromatography methods.
