    The timsTOF fleX can be used for untargeted metabolomics, lipidomics and proteomics. It has an integrated MALDI source for fast MALDI Imaging.

    Ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography coupled to a Q TOF mass spectrometer.

    This spectrometer is designed to analyse a wide range of metabolites from lipids to amino acids in an untargeted fashion.

    Ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography coupled to a triple quad/Q Trap mass spectrometer (UHPLC-QqQMS).

    This spectrometer is designed to quantify a wide range of metabolites from lipids to amino acids in a targeted fashion

    This spectrometer is ideal for quantifying polar metabolites such as those in the TCA cycle and sugar derivatives.

    This instrument has a sample preparation robot to automate the derivatization required to reduce the sample-to-sample variability.

    Targeted and untargeted screening for a broad range of metabolites. Equipped with a Gerstel MPS dual head autosampler capable of adding standards or derivatizing agents to samples without manual intervention.

    Automated liquid handling workstation for sample preparation.

    High sensitivity targeted analysis
    Routine analysis of small molecules
    Bruker’s QTOF is a high-resolution hybrid tandem mass spectrometer (QTOF) consisting of quadrupole (Q) and time-of-flight (TOF) mass analyzers. The sample can be introduced through direct infusion or by HPLC. For LC-MS/MS analyses, QTOF is combined with Agilent 1200 series HPLC-DAD system.
