Short Description
Series 7200B GC-QTOFMS. Agilent Technologies.
The system is equipped with a robotic sample preparation device from Gerstel enabling fully automated two-step derivatization procedures. Using an identical sample preparation robot allows simple and easy transferring of methods between GC-MS/MS and GC-QTOFMS. The high-resolution QTOFMS provides a mass accuracy better than 5 ppm.
