Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time of Flight MALDI - ToF/ToF

OVERVIEW

Acronym

MALDI-ToF/ToF

Partner institution

Sapienza Università di Roma





Description

The instrument is designed for high resolution mass spectrometry of proteins, nucleic acids and other molecules. The aim of this platform is identify and structurally characterize polypeptide chains, molecular complexes, polymers, and contaminants/ligands at very low molecular weight.
The source can operate in positive and negative ion mode using the linear or reflector detector. The saturation free detector technology enables highest dynamic range and superior performance for high-mass detection.
