Highlights
Advanced instrument control software, compound database integration, and predefined method templates simplify operations, enabling LC-MS/MS users of all skill sets to obtain high-confidence data.
Achieve next-level productivity, versatility, and performance for method development and routine sample analysis. The Thermo Scientific TSQ Quantis Plus triple quadrupole mass spectrometer combines enhanced acquisition speed and sensitivity with proven robustness and reliability to deliver confident targeted screening and quantitation for high-throughput applications.
Reducing the barrier to productivity: Operational simplicity
Targeted research and routine applications demand fast and responsive instrument control software, with intuitive operations. Predefined method templates with integration to databases, including the Thermo Scientific mzCloud database, enable targeted quantitation method creation based on empirical knowledge. Also, direct method transfer from previous Thermo Scientific TSQ Quantis mass spectrometers can be loaded and operated without optimization.
Experimental determination of dwell times assigned to transitions is automated based on user-defined chromatographic peak width, with the option of fixed cycle time or optimal number of data points per chromatographic peak. Prioritization settings allow further adjustments.
Speed with selectivity and sensitivity
Achieve superior acquisition speeds on the TSQ Quantis Plus mass spectrometer, which can acquire 600 SRMs/sec and when combined with a new power supply enables 5 ms polarity switching and allows the required number of data points to be acquired for expanded number of target compounds, even with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) separation.
The TSQ Quantis Plus mass spectrometer delivers excellent quantitative performance in both selected reaction monitoring (SRM) and high-resolution selected reaction monitoring (H-SRM) for fit-for-purpose selectivity. The enhanced active Q2 collision cell improves product ion transmission, especially for low-mass product ions, which can increase detection efficiency.
Expanded experimental capabilities
Integrated workflow solutions centered on the TSQ Quantis Plus mass spectrometer address regulated requirements targeting a growing list of diverse compounds. New UHPLC and high performance ion chromotagraphy (HPIC) systems maximize sample delivery and separation capabilities, maintaining the sensitivity to meet minimum residue limits without costly sample preparation or derivatization steps. Thermo Scientific Chromeleon Chromatography Data System (CDS) controls all experimental attributes in a regulated environment to further drive productivity.
Robust and reliable quantitation
Innovative designs in the ion source, neutral blocker, and mass analyzers maintain optimal performance while maximizing instrument uptime. The ion transfer tube enables simple extraction and cleaning in minutes, without breaking the instrument vacuum or requiring instrument calibration. New integrated instrument performance check and calibration routine reduce manual interaction, maximizing data acquisition and instrument productivity.
