Bruker Chemical & Applied Markets division (CAM), US
: Designed
as ‘the gas chromatographers' GC-MS system, Bruker's new SCION TQ
TM
GC-MS/MS promotes ease of use and increased workflow in busy analytical
laboratories. The advantages offered by hardware innovations - reducing
the instrument footprint by half but at the same time improving
performance over traditional gas chromatography systems - are
supplemented by the utility and ease of use of the unique SCION Compound
Based Scanning (CBS) software.
Bruker's
software for the SCION TQ includes a number of important tools and
features to make method set up, data analysis and comparisons of similar
spectra much easier. With gas chromatographers in mind, the SCION
software package includes: a CBS Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM)
compound library for easy set up of methods; additional spectral
libraries e.g. NIST, Wiley, Pfleger/Maure/Weber (PMW); plug in to
multiple user-customizable spectral libraries with automatic search
functions; and, Bruker's mass spectrometry (MS) workstation software.
Kefei Wang, Global GCMS Product Manager at Bruker CAM says:
"The
software makes complicated analysis easy, particularly for those with
little prior mass spectrometry knowledge. MRM set up requires no expert
knowledge - the compound name may be simply dragged from the
pre-installed compound library and the software auto-fills the full
details of the method and manages the full duty cycle of the triple
quad. Jim Koers, Bruker CAM Software Manager, added:
"To put this into context, manual TQ method development for a 200
compound method would require around 12,000 keystrokes and take several
days. With CBS, we can achieve a fully optimized method in a matter of
hours, and with less than 200 keystrokes!" The
SCION TQ system comes complete with the Bruker compound library, which
details some 2,500 MRM transitions. Results are presented in a standard
pro-forma accepted across the industry and may be cross referenced
against known spectral libraries to aid interpretation and final
delivery.
