The Orbitrap is an ion trap mass analyzer that consists of two outer electrodes and a central electrode, which enable it to act as both an analyzer and detector. Ions entering the Orbitrap are captured through "electrodynamic squeezing," after which they oscillate around the central electrode and in between the two outer electrodes. Different ions oscillate at different frequencies, resulting in their separation. By measuring the oscillation frequencies induced by ions on the outer electrodes, the mass spectra of the ions are acquired using image current detection.
Liquid chromatography / Mass Spectroscopy (LC / MS) is a technique which combines high performance liquid chromatography HPLC, a powerful analytical separation technique with mass spectroscopy,a powerful analysis & detection technique.
There are two common atmospheric pressure ionization (API) LC/MS process: Electrospray Ionization (ESI) & Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization (APCI). Both are soft ionization technique.
Q Exactive Plus provides fast, sensitive, reliable and confident detection and identification of compounds in complex mixture while maintaining full compatibility with UHPLC and fast chromatography.
The HCD collision cell adds more functionality to the bench top system by providing Ion fragmentation while maintaining high resolution, accurate mass and high sensitivity.
