Quadrupole Time-of-Flight (QTOF) Mass Spectrometry

Since its first commercial launch 25 years ago, quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF) mass spectrometry (MS) has revolutionized numerous fields, ranging from biological and pharmaceutical research to clinical toxicology.
The unique hybridization of quadrupole and TOF technology resulted in high-resolution, high mass accuracy analysis of all ions simultaneously, which is today used to identify and quantify complex mixtures or unknown compounds.
The MS/MS capabilities of QTOF MS systems enable coupling to both LC and GC systems and Bruker’s expertise provides a variety of innovative instruments. Our powerful, high performance products are specifically designed to meet the rapidly growing needs of customers in the academic, pharmaceutical, industrial, clinical, and applied markets.
Bruker offers a broad range of different ionization sources to allow coupling of various separation techniques with the benefits of high-resolution mass spectrometry.
