Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Ascend Tribrid mass spectrometer

The Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Ascend Tribrid mass spectrometer offers capabilities for multiplexed proteomics and native protein characterisation. Designed for users to address the most difficult analytical challenges, the product enables good sample throughput, versatility and ease of use.

Thermo Fisher Scientific says that large sample quantities can be analysed at low concentrations, enabling fast, sensitive analysis, and that macromolecule experiments that were not previously possible can now be achieved. The Auto-Ready ion source for calibration maximises convenience, allowing the user to spend more time on the results and less time on instrument set-up.

The instrument provides a single, versatile platform with single-cell sensitivity for proteomics and metabolomics, producing high-quality data with ease and enabling users to tackle challenging analytes required to scale up their science. It also has the ability to route multiple ions: by moving the collision cell forward, the speed of the system is increased, allowing users to dig deeper into a sample and detect more, quicker.
