The ACQUITY® SQD combines the resolution, sensitivity, and speed of UltraPerformance® technology with single quadrupole MS detection. Designed specifically for chromatographers performing UPLC®/MS analysis, it offers a simple yet powerful solution for multi-tasking, fast-paced laboratory environments – with robust and reliable performance, and walk-up operation for any expertise level. The ACQUITY UPLC® System’s ability to produce narrow peaks and spectral quality from the ACQUITY SQD allows easy identification of compounds in applications, including: - Peak purity and impurity profiling
- Syntheses confirmation
- Product deformulation
- Enhanced method development with molecular weight-based peak tracking
Features: - Interactive diagnostics software for worry-free system and fluidics optimization and performance checks with IntelliStart™ Technology
- 1 pg sensitivity with either ESI or APCI
- 10,000 Da/sec scan speeds up to 2,000 Da for full compatibility with seconds-wide UPLC peaks
- Simple upkeep and minimal bench space requirement
- Dual orthogonal sampling ionization with ZSpray™ source
- Rapid polarity switching and multi-mode ionization with simultaneous APCI and ESI for comprehensive compound analyses in a single injection, with ESCi® Technology
- Multiple detection strategies available with supported Tunable UV (TUV), Photodiode Array (PDA), and Evaporative Light Scattering (ELS) optical detectors
- Control and data acquisition with Empower™ or MassLynx™ Software
- Optional APPI(Atmospheric Pressure PhotoIonization)
- Optional application managers available
