8040 – LC-MS/MS

LCMS-8040 Triple Quadrupole Liquid Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (LC-MS/MS)

Consumer demand for higher quality products has led to the implementation of stricter government regulations and oversight in order to ensure safety and product conformity. The food safety community is just one sector requiring lower minimum residue levels with greater testing frequency for a broader number of compounds. The triple quad LCMS-8040 has stepped up to the challenges of high-throughput sensitive routine analysis. As shown, the LCMS-8040 can analyze a 226 pesticide mixture in less than two minutes, making it an ideal instrument for meeting a laboratory’s demanding requirements.
