The Thermo Q-Exactive is a hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer capable of generating high resolution, accurate mass (HRAM) data. The Q-Exactive is ideal for qualitative and quantitative metabolomics or small molecule studies as well as for proteomics studies (Bottom-up). Capable of being operated in both positive and negative ionization modes, the Q-Exactive provides a robust and versatile platform with the ability to be used with a multitude of ionization sources (ESI, HESI II, nano-ESI, and APCI). It can be further coupled to either a Dionex Ultimate 3000 UHPLC system or a Proxeon Easy-nLC 1000 for chromatographic separation of samples prior to MS analysis.
