Features of 320-MS LC/MS
- Switch from LC to GC interface and back again
- Change ionization modes between ESI and APCI
- GC sources include: EI, PCI and NCI
- Single Quad to Triple Quad upgrade
Flexible, Rugged, Sensitive
Varian’s patent pending, computer-controlled gas temperature (SelecTemp™) and flow (SelecFlow™) give you the flexibility to develop methods with greater ruggedness and sensitivity. An integrated syringe pump and six port valve, with time-programmable software control, accelerate method development.
Sensitivity When You Need It
When we say femtogram sensitivity, we mean it. Whether you’re doing simple flow injection with the built-in syringe pump (Figure A), or on-column analysis using the new 212-LC pumps (Figure B), you’ll be impressed with the 320-MS sensitivity.
