Questions answered in these manuals
What evidence is provided regarding long-term contamination?
One thousand consecutive injections showed no indication of contamination or changes in system sensitivity.
From: Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS Atmospheric Pressure Ionization Interface Technical Overview
What is the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS Atmospheric Pressure Ionization Interface designed to do?
It is designed to meet the challenge of routine analysis of large numbers of samples in a dirty matrix.
From: Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS Atmospheric Pressure Ionization Interface Technical Overview
What is the primary benefit of the Enhanced Charge Capacity (ECC) feature in the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS?
The Enhanced Charge Capacity allows the instrument to reliably detect trace amounts of analytes even when they are present in a high concentration of coeluting analytes within heavy matrices.
How much can the ion time be increased on the Agilent 500 Ion Trap before mass resolution is noticeably degraded?
The Agilent 500 Ion Trap can tolerate a 100-fold increase in the ion time with little noticeable decrease in mass resolution.
What is SelecTemp?
SelecTemp is a temperature-programmable atmospheric pressure ionization dry gas control feature of the Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS.
From: Agilent 500 Ion Trap LC/MS SelecTemp Technical Overview
How does SelecTemp improve sensitivity for thermally labile compounds?
It provides a factor of three improvement in signal-to-noise by lowering the drying gas temperature from 330 °C to 300 °C during the run.
