quadrupole-Orbitrap MS
With the use of very specific MS selected ion monitoring (SIM) detection, ppb-level quantification can be performed with greater
confidence on a wide range of real-world samples, such as bottled drinking water.

Peak Confirmation
In addition to the enhanced detection, if your study requires peak confirmation or peak purity analysis the single quadrupole MS detector
such as the Thermo Scientific™ ISQ™ EC mass spectrometer will provide complementary molecular weight data, for an increased degree
of confidence.

Determination of perchlorate in a Municipal Drinking Water Sample. (A) The conductivity channel provides very limited sensitivity towards the perchlorate peak and no confirmatory data. (B) SIM m/z 99 provides a very sensitive response towards perchlorate. (C)
SIM m/z 101 confirms the response as perchlorate by confirming the 3:1 ratio of m/z 99:101 expected for perchlorate.
Where unknown chromatographic peaks appear, mass detection enables the IC analytical chemist to quickly and effectively suggest a
number of possibilities for these unknown peaks. By scanning across a chromatographic peak with a mass detector, it is possible to
detect the appearance of unusual masses.
FLEXIBLE IC-MS COMBINATIONS
Thermo Fisher Scientific offers two different IC systems, the Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-6000 HPIC™
system and the Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Integrion™ HPIC™ system, suited for pairing with MS detection.
Each of these unique IC systems can be used with a variety of mass spectrometers, offering increasing levels
of confidence, peak confirmation, and structural elucidation for your analyses.

RESOLVING COMPLEXITY
Increased Selectivity for Complex Samples
When you need increased sensitivity and peak confirmation, the
increased power of a triple quadrupole MS may be the answer.
The sensitivity and selectivity of MS/MS detection makes it a highly
preferred method for complex sample matrices. For example,
perchlorate in baby formula can be quantified, without enrichment
at low parts-per-trillion (ppt) levels using simple sample preparation
and a TSQ Altis triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for detection.
This system provides excellent reproducibility, accuracy, and
precision.

Determination of organic acids in Animal Feed by single quadrupole IC-MS. (A) The conductivity channel
provides sufficient response for the organic acids, but lacks resolution for malate, malonate and succinate.
(B) The highly selective SIM channels on the Thermo Scientific ISQ EC are able to respond individually to the
three co-eluting organic acids, providing both quantitative and qualitative data.
