ICP - mass spectrometers

Agilent 8900 Triple Quadrupole ICP-MS (Since 2020) Agilent 8900 ICP-MS/MS unit (since 2020)

Tandem ICP-mass spectrometer offering excellent capabilities for interference-free (ultra)trace element determination based on the use of chemical resolution. Its short minimum detector dwell time (100 µs) also renders this unit suitable for single-event (single-particle and single-cell) ICP-MS.

 

TOFWERK icpTOF Time-Of-Flight ICP-MS TOFWERK icpTOF2R Time-of-Flight MS (since 2019)

Owing to the use of a time-of-flight mass spectrometer and the specific design of this ICP-MS instrument, it allows rapid mass spectral acquisition and concurrent analysis of all nuclides, with a good sensitivity and high mass resolving power.

 

Thermo Scientific Neptune Plus Multi-collector ICP-MS  (Since 2019)Thermo Scientific Neptune XT Multi-collector ICP-MS (Since 2019)

Second multi-collector sector field ICP - mass spectrometer as a dedicated tool for highly precise determination of isotope ratios (metals & metalloids), equipped with XHR (extra-high resolution) and 1013 Ohm resistors.

 

Agilent 7900  Quadrupole-based ICP-MS (Since 2015)Agilent 7900 Quadrupole-based ICP-MS (Since 2015)

Quadrupole-based ICP-MS instrument, equipped with an octopole reaction cell for overcoming spectral overlap via selective ion-molecule chemistry (chemical resolution) and/or energy discrimination.

 

Agilent 8800  Quadrupole-based ICP-MS (Since 2013)Agilent 8800 Triple Quadrupole ICP-MS (Since 2013)

This instrument is equipped with an additional quadrupole analyzer, in front of an octopole reaction cell and an analyzer quadrupole. This configuration is called MS/MS. With this set-up, chemical resolution can be exploited at its full potential because a very controlled and efficient interference removal is possible.

 

Thermo Scientific XSeries II  Quadrupole-based ICP-MS (Since 2009)Thermo Scientific XSeries II Quadrupole-based ICP-MS (Since 2009)

ICP-MS equipped with hexapole collision cell for overcoming spectral overlap via selective ion-molecule chemistry (chemical resolution) and/or energy discrimination.

 

Thermo Scientific Neptune Multi-collector ICP-MS  (Since 2007)Thermo Scientific Neptune Multi-collector ICP-MS (Since 2007)

Multi-collector sector field ICP - mass spectrometer as a dedicated tool for highly precise determination of isotope ratios (metals & metalloids), equipped with a double-focusing mass spectrometer of Nier-Johnson geometry and an array of 9 Faraday collector and 3 ion counting devices. Resolving power (5%,95%) of up to 8000 - pseudo high resolution. Retardation lens for optimizing abundance sensitivity.
Upgraded to Neptune Plus configuration via installation of a high-efficiency interface.
