New Orbitrap ID-X Tribrid Mass Spectrometer Enhances Small-Molecule Characterization

Thermo Fisher Scientific’s mass spectrometer combines mass-analyzer technology with an intelligent data acquisition strategy.

Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Orbitrap ID-X Tribrid Mass Spectrometer combines mass-analyzer technology dedicated for small-molecule analysis with the company’s AcquireX intelligent MSⁿ data acquisition strategy, which allows the collection of more meaningful data. The system’s intuitive, automated workflow accelerates results by capturing more low-abundance analytes and leveraging streamlined data analysis and mass-spectral prediction tools, according to the company.

The technology helps dissipate bottlenecks by:

  • enabling scientists to push the limits of complex small-molecule challenges using Thermo Scientific Tribrid architecture.

  • increasing profiling efficiency and selectivity using intelligent AcquireX data acquisition, allowing for more meaningful data collection.

  • extracting meaningful MSⁿ data faster with high confidence using an integrated set of data analysis tools.

  • demystifying unknown variables using novel spectral prediction tools and processing routines to interpret MSⁿ data.
