Thermo Scientific LTQ Orbitrap XL

The Thermo Scientific LTQ Orbitrap XL is an advanced hybrid mass spectrometer designed for high-precision molecular analysis in proteomics, metabolomics, and other complex biological research. Its unique combination of Linear Ion Trap (LTQ) and Orbitrap mass analyzers allows for rapid ion trapping and high-resolution mass detection, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that demand accuracy and sensitivity.

Key specifications of the LTQ Orbitrap XL include:

• Mass resolution: Capable of delivering a resolution of up to 100,000 FWHM (Full Width at Half Maximum), which is essential for distinguishing closely related mass peaks.
• Mass accuracy: Provides less than 3 parts per million (ppm) mass accuracy, ensuring precise identification of analytes in complex mixtures.
• Mass range: The system offers a broad mass range of 50 to 4,000 m/z, allowing for the analysis of a wide array of molecular species, from small molecules to large peptides and proteins.

With its enhanced sensitivity and accuracy, the LTQ Orbitrap XL is widely used in protein identification, biomarker discovery, and post-translational modification analysis. It integrates seamlessly with a variety of liquid chromatography systems, offering researchers flexibility in sample preparation and separation methods.
