Features
Attaching biological relevance to discoveries in your research demands the highest possible data quality and the ability to harness new technology in unprecedented ways.
Ionization source
The OptiFlow Pro ion source incorporates the reliability and efficiency of the Turbo V ion source while providing flexibility for quickly switching flow rates.
Scan speeds of up to 858 Hz
The fastest SCIEX QTOF yet! When using ZT Scan DIA 2.0, the isolation window for MS/MS slides along the m/z range of interest during each cycle. With a quadrupole scan speed of up to 4000 Da/s, the system can operate at a MS/MS scan rate of up to 858 Hz, dependent on the pre-defined mass range, (not accounting for multiple precursors in a single isolation encoded window).
Mass Guard technology with optical detector
The novel combination of Mass Guard technology and a new optical detection system allows the instrument to operate effectively at higher ion currents while protecting it from contamination.
ZT Scan 2.0 DIA for all molecule types
The flexibility in mass range and compound parameters extends functionality across diverse workflows, including small molecule analysis. Methods are easy to set up and require minimal user optimization, facilitating the analysis of large sample cohorts.
High-energy EAD
Acquire higher-quality EAD spectra faster across all molecule types*. Perform CID or EAD profiling on equivalent timescales, gaining deeper insights into lipid biology, protein modifications, and metabolite structures. Extend electron-based fragmentation capabilities into negative ionization with up to 50 eV.
ZenoTOF versatility
Zeno trap can be enabled to deliver enhanced sensitivity. Ions are accumulated in the Zeno trap before being pulsed rapidly into the TOF, meaning we can detect up to 20x more ions than a classical QTOF design.
Integrated innovation
SCIEX OS 4.0 software enables users to track instrument performance, instrument health and enhanced automated system tuning, helping to ensure that users can easily attain and maintain optimum performance from their system.
More energy efficient
The ZenoTOF 8600 system uses dry roughing pumps, which can reduce electricity consumption by up to 24% relative to oil-sealed pumps.
