“Minimum” footprint<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With its simple configuration and compact size, it is possible to install the MALDImini-1 in places where mass analysis devices could not previously be used. Through ingenious engineering and innovation its footprint has been reduced to the size of a piece of paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Minimum” time<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Miniaturization allows rapid, “on-the-spot” analysis and simplifies data acquisition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Minimum” sample volume<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Complex structural analysis can be performed even with sub-\u03bcL sample volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until now, devices for MSn<\/sup> have had strenuous installation requirements, but the MALDImini-1\u2019s compact size and power requirements make it easy to install almost anywhere. Easy access to the instrument allows users to quickly acquire data and check their results, creating a more convenient workflow right on the bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Begin taking measurements quickly without fuss<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MALDI lends itself to quick analysis through simple sample preparation and acquisition. Once the sample is loaded, users can acquire a spectrum in a few minutes at the click of a button.

With such a smooth and quick setup, it is possible to carry out detailed structural analyses in a very short time span.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MSn<\/sup> analysis is possible over a wide mass range, even with microquantity samples<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By combining a MALDI ion source with Digital Ion Trap (DIT) technology, it is possible to carry out high-sensitivity MS and MSn<\/sup> analysis even on micro-quantity samples. Not only can the mass of various molecules be checked, but it is also possible to carry out a wide range of analyses such as identifying proteins and investigating the structure of glycans and glycopeptides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0Identifying protein digests<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By carrying out MS and MS\/MS measurements on protein digests, it is possible to determine the identify of a protein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0MALDImini Console<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the dedicated control software for MALDImini-1, you can take measurements just by setting simple analysis parameters. Switch quickly and easily between MS, MS\/MS and MS3<\/sup> modes for seamless analysis. Data can be exported in mzML or mzXML formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0Compatibility with Software Solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powerful processing tools can be used to analyze your exported mzML or mzXML data, such as MASCOT for identifying protein digests, SimGlycan\u2122 for processing MSn<\/sup> data for glycans, and eMSTAT Solution\u2122 for statistical analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
