Bruker Autoflex Speed TOF/TOF

The Autoflex Speed TOF-TOF features a number of options, including linear mode, high-resolution reflectron mode, LIFT technology to enable the use of various MS/MS techniques and fully automated plate management for label-free high throughput screening. The instrument incorporates smartbeam–II laser technology with 2kHz speed in TOF mode. Applications include intact protein identification and characterization, analysis of inorganic/organic molecules, synthetic polymers, dendrimers, peptide mixtures, oligonucleotides, carbohydrates.

Features

• Mode of operation: linear / reflector mode / TOF/TOF
• system speed: 2 kHz MS 200 Hz MS/MS
• performs: Protein TDS, including T³ -sequencing, TLC-MALDI, Protein Tissue Imaging, High Mass Application, Macromolecules, Polymer Analysis, Proteomics, and Small Molecule Imaging, including FAST-SRM or TOF/TOF
• 2 kHz smartbeam-II laser technology enables ultra-high data acquisition speed.
• Laser focus diameters down to 10 µm for high spatial resolution imaging without pixel overlap.
