This document describes the advantages of fast scan rates with the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS. By increasing the scan rate, more data points can be acquired, improving chromatographic resolution.
This document provides a technical overview of the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS, focusing on its unique “Triple Resonant” mass scan technology. This technology enables scan rates of 15,000 Da/sec with a mass resolution of better than 0.5 Da full width half maximum (FWHM).
| Scan rate | 15,000 Da/sec |
|---|---|
| Mass resolution | better than 0.5 Da FWHM |
| Technology | Triple Resonant |
The Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS allows scan rates of 15,000 Da/sec.
A higher data rate improves chromatographic resolution by allowing more data points to be acquired across the chromatographic peak.
