Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS)

When analyzing food, and environmental samples, laboratories need multiple system to get the qualitative and quantitative information on contaminants, resulting in duplicated sample preparation processes, increased cost of ownership and sub-optimal lab efficiency. The unique dual-source configuration of the PerkinElmer QSight® LC/MS/MS System enables high-throughput labs to collect data in two complementary modes (ESI and APCI), maximizing the output from a single injection. Combined with the StayClean technology, source cleaning and maintenance is dramatically reduced, translating into higher productivity and ROI. The easy-to-learn PerkinElmer Simplicity 3Q Software, streamlines the complete LC/MS/MS workflow, from validated method development to data reporting.

 

Exploit the productivity for your lab with the QSight LC/MS/MS System.

When it comes to analyzing food, cannabis, and environmental samples, we know it can be challenging to meet stricter regulations that demand lower detection limits. We also know that throughput and efficiency are paramount in doing your job and doing it well. PerkinElmer QSight triple quad LC/MS/MS offers robust and reliable performance. With patented flow-based technology; unique, independent dual-probe source; self-cleaning interface design; and intuitive, easy-to-use software, the QSight LC/MS/MS is more efficient than ever. See what it can do for you.

Sensitivity

Commercial testing labs, global food manufacturers and exporters, and highly regulated cannabis labs need to meet most stringent requirements. The QSight Triple Quad LC/MS/MS system is engineered to deliver superior sensitivity, even for the most challenging matrices.

The coaxial flow electrospray design prevents dispersion of like charge species in front of the sampling orifice, which creates more effective ion sampling and leads to greater sensitivity. With no cross-flow, turbulent formation is minmized, and ion fluctuation is reduced.

Selectivity

The patented High-Performance Mass Filter is the first of its kind, providing high resolution without sacrificing transmission. You get better selectivity better signal-to-noise ratio with no compromise in sensitivity.

The QSight triple quad collision cell is designed for fast and efficient fragmentation. Its special design helps create a high field at entrance and a low field at exit, facilitating ion movement quickly by field gradient. This rapid movement shortens cycle time (fast MRMs) without signal loss and with nearly zero crosstalk, high sensitivity.

Specificity

PerkinElmer QSight® LC/MS/MS is equipped with two independent probes, both ESI and APCI, allowing automated probe switching. This dual-source technology eliminates probe re-optimization due to method changes, improving productivity and throughput​-enabling greater specificity.

Efficiency

The QSight LC/MS/MS dual-source technology, ESI or APCI, provides the capability to analyze a broad range of both polar and nonpolar molecules. For pesticides applications, GC-MSMS, and LC-MSMS amenable compounds can be analyzed on the QSight LC/MS/MS alone, reducing analysis time.

Maintenance of lab equipment is another task that takes time and can slow a lab down. QSight LC/MS/MS features StayClean technology, a hot-surface-induced desolvation (HSID) system which is estimated to provide 15% higher uptime than conventional LC/MS/MS systems.

The QSight HSID interface is coupled to a Laminar flow ion guide, both of which prevent accumulation of contamination along the ion path, eliminating sample preparation (dilute-and-shoot technique) for trace level pesticide analysis in complex samples – which leads to higher lab productivity.
