Mass Detection For Undergraduates

In the academic research world, there are still many laboratories where long perceived barriers associated with mass spectrometry, including complexity, size, and affordability, have prohibited scientists in realizing the benefits of mass data. As an intuitive and robust mass detector, the ACQUITY QDa is the perfect tool to introduce undergraduates to the principles of mass spectrometry and mass spectral interpretation. Allow students to gain practical hands-on experience exploring the following fundamentals of mass spectrometry:

• Mass-to-charge ratio
• Monoisotopic versus average mass
• Isotopic patterns
• Formation of adducts
• Multiple-charging
• Fragmentation

...and many more.
