Such configurations combine the strength of MS/MS for identification confirmation with the sensitivity of quadrupole mass analyzers.

Market profile: GC-MS in food analysis

De Heer built a new cluster source and a quadrupole mass analyzer with a range from 1-10,000 amu; clusters were ionized using a broadband UV arc lamp - all features that later proved to be essential for the discovery of electronic shell structure.

For the record

Drawing on 20 years of experience in developing innovative mass spectrometry tools for life science research, Applied Biosystems/MDS SCIEX developed a patented method for high-throughput quantitation of small molecules using MALDI and multiple-reaction-monitoring on a triple quadrupole mass analyzer.
