Episode #2: Tandem Quadrupole MS and MS-Method Development | F&E Summer School - Day 1 - Module 2
In this episode it’s all about the tandem quadrupole mass specs and the setup of MS-methods. We will demonstrate, using actual hardware, how simple it is to prevent contamination or clean a system, regardless of whether it’s at the low or high end of the sensitivity spectrum. You will learn valuable tips and tricks about UniSpray, a unique ion source and alternative to ESI.
With our new waters_connect for Quantitation software, we will guide you through the different stages of MS-method development. You will learn how straightforward automated compound optimization can be, and how intuitively the new Method Acquisition Editor can be utilized by operators providing a clear structured all in one view of compounds and parameters. Search options make it easy to navigate through large multi-residue methods. And in the end, you are just one click away from the processing method that will be the topic of Episode 4.
What you'll learn:
- Easy operation and maintenance of Waters TQ-MS systems
- Usage and benefits of UniSpray ion source
- Step by step MS-method development with waters_connect for Quantitation
