World Fastest* Tandem Quadrupole LC/MS/MS System: Provides Speed Beyond Comparison for Multi-Analyte Determination
Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry is the method of choice for accurate quantification and confirmation of trace level analytes in complex matrices. From the detection of drugs and metabolites in biological specimens to environmental contaminants and pesticides in food, analysts the world over are challenged with detecting an increasing number of target analytes with greater sensitivity and in more samples than ever before. Shimadzu understands these requirements. That is why we have combined our experience from different fields to build a mass spectrometer that can keep pace with the chromatographic resolving power of our world-leading UHPLC systems without any speed limitation. The LCMS-8030 couples the power of a Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer with unparalleled speed to provide the ideal compliment to both UHPLC and HPLC systems.

Brief explanation of LCMSMS terminology
MRM
MRM stands for Multiple Reaction Monitoring. In MRM, a specific ion (precursor ion) is selected in Q1 (first stage MS) from among various ions ionized by the ionization probe, the ion is destructed (collision-induced dissociation) in the collision cell (Q2, collision chamber), and a specific ion is detected from among the destructed ions (product ions) in Q3 (second stage MS). Multiple channels can be set in one measurement.
