The LCMS-9030 quadrupole time-of-flight (TOF) liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer from Shimadzu is a researchgrade mass spectrometer suited to deliver high-resolution, accurate-mass detection with fast data acquisition rates.

The LCMS-9030 quadrupole time-of-flight (TOF) liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer from Shimadzu is a researchgrade mass spectrometer suited to deliver high-resolution, accurate-mass detection with fast data acquisition rates, allowing scientists to identify and quantify more compounds with greater confidence.

The instrument provides a new solution for analyzing complex samples and integrates quadrupole technology with TOF architecture to improve high-mass accuracy workflows by maintaining high-sensitivity, high-speed, and high-resolution detection, as stated by the company. Features include less need for calibration and easy switching between ionization units. Core ion beam technologies transition towards a unique approach in ion gating using UFaccumulation to create a precise pulse of ions in the flight tube optimized for high sensitivity and high resolution using iRefTOF reflectron technology.
