The Novel amaZon is the First Ion Trap with Dual Ion Funnel Technology for a 10x Sensitivity Boost, Second-Generation ETD for Proteomics, Mass Resolution up to 20,000, and Highest Acquisition Speed
BILLERICA, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May. 11, 2009-- Bruker Daltonics today launches the next-generation ultra-sensitive, ion trap阿玛斯on™series.Delivering 10x improved MS/MS sensitivity over current platforms, novel technology for accelerated data acquisition, significantly enhanced mass resolution, and second-generation fast and sensitive ETD/PTR capabilities, this unique, highest performance ion trap delivers unrivalled data quality and extreme flexibility for a broad variety of applications.
The阿玛斯onbuilds upon Bruker’s long experience in ion trap technologies, and is designed to enhance capabilities in research areas such as bottom-up proteomics, high-throughput and ultra-sensitive PTM analysis, metabolomics, compound screening and identification, and detailed chemical and structural analysis. The阿玛斯onseries is offered in two versions:阿玛斯on ETDfor proteomics, and阿玛斯on X小分子分析和应用市场。
The new阿玛斯onincorporates key inventions for unprecedented ion trap capabilities:
- First commercial introduction of adouble ion funnel transferin ion traps, delivering a new benchmark for sensitivity
- Unrivalledscan speed of 52,000 u/sec at better than unit resolutionfor fastest UPLC applications and maximum duty cycle in data-dependent MS/MS and MSn
- Ultimate ion trapmass resolving power up to 20,000in full scan mode across the 50-3000 m/z range: in combination with Bruker’spatented peak recognition technologySNAP IITM, the阿玛斯onprovides isotopic peak resolution even for highly charged ion species in ETD/PTR fragment spectra for the confident determination of their monoisotopic masses.
- The latestETD/PTR technologyoffering the most efficient, extremely robust and sensitive peptide and protein fragmentation, as well as high-throughput PTM analysis. Building upon the very successful ETD technology commercialized first by Bruker, the combination of bottom-up CID or ETD and top-down ETD/PTR provides new methodologies fordetailed protein characterization.
- Zero Delay Alternating™acquisitionforhigh-speed ion polarity switchingwithout sensitivity and time compromise. Up to20 Hz MS data acquisition in both polaritiesis ideal in combination with fast UHPLC separations. Supported by spectral MSnlibraries, the阿玛斯onis the ultimate ion trap mass spectrometer forMS/MS based multi-compound screening.
Bruker Daltonics Vice President Dr. Arnd Ingendoh commented: “The performance of the阿玛斯onwill completely redefine the use of ion traps across an increasing range of application areas. With new, unparalleled levels of sensitivity, acquisition speed and mass resolution combined with ease-of-use, smart automation and an array of software modules for faster high-value information generation, the阿玛斯onoffers a new level of performance and confidence in many small molecule and applied market segments. In proteomics, the阿玛斯onis a very powerful ESI-MS/MS system with ultra-sensitive, fully automated ETD/PTR, and represents a perfect complement to MALDI-TOF/TOF technology for the broadest array of proteomic analysis capabilities.”
The revolutionary new阿玛斯onwill be highlighted at Bruker's Annual Users Meeting on Sunday, May 31st, 2009 before the 57th一个SMS Conference on Mass Spectrometry in Philadelphia, PA.
