Mass Spectrometry & Spectroscopy 19 New Ultra-Fast LCMS Now Available on European Markets
Shimadzu has released a new member of the UFMS (Ultra-Fast Mass Spectrometry) family in Europe: the LCMS-8045 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. For laboratories performing demanding routine quantitative analyses e.g. in food safety and environmental testing, the new LCMS-8045 offers an optimum balance of sensitivity, robustness and cost-effectiveness.
The LCMS-8045 features a modified ion sampling device and collision cell technology, resulting in greater efficiency and high quantitative accuracy and reliability. In addition, the ion source features a cable- less, tubeless housing and the desolvation capillary can be replaced without breaking vacuum. This leads to increased durability, easier maintenance and a lower total cost of ownership.
As part of the Shimadzu UFMS series, the LCMS-8045 features a range of ultra-fast technologies. These include a scan speed of 30,000 u/sec without loss of mass accuracy, and a polarity switching time of 5 msec, which ensures highly reproducible data even for the most demanding matrices.
The LCMS-8045 operates using Shimadzu’s LabSolutions software, an intuitive package that enables simplified instrument control, diverse data handling and integration with regulatory compliance requirements. Numerous options including application-specific method packages and open-access quantitative analysis software are available to address specific customer requirements.
The LCMS-8045 can be upgraded, like the LCMS-8050 to the high-sensitivity LCMS-8060 in case of new challenges or applications requiring higher sensitivity.

New Spectrometer Offers High Resolution and Sensitivity
Avantes, a leading innovator in the field of spectroscopy, now offers a real workhorse; the AvaSpec-HERO. The new AvaSpec-HERO is the answer for those who are in need of high resolution and high sensitivity. This spectrometer combines the best of both worlds, including USB3 and Ethernet. With a higher aperture, a cooled back thinned detector and low noise, it’s the instrument of choice for demanding applications including: fluorescence, raman, absorption and others. Based on High Sensitivity Compact opti cal bench (f=100mm; NA=0.13) and a 1024x58 backthinned CCD detector, it offers the best of both worlds: sensitivity and resolution.
The instrument is equipped with a TE Cooling enabling long integration times in low light applications. In con junction with AS7010
electronics, including a high end AD convertor, noise is kept to a minimum, which offers you an excellent signal to noise and dynamic range performance. A selection of gratings and replaceable slits offers you the flexibility of configuring the instrument for a wide range of applica tions in the 200-1160nm range. This high end spectrometer will be your uncompromising tool enabling you to accurately perform measurements in a wide variety of applications. A real hero for your application.

ADVERTORIAL Optimise FT-IR Spectra Using Variable Angle ATR Accessories
Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) is today the most widely used FTIR sampling tool. ATR generally allows qualitative or quantitative analysis with little or no sample preparation. Sampling is achieved by placing the sample directly onto the ATR crystal, which greatly speeds analysis time. The main benefit of ATR sampling is the thin sampling pathlength and depth of penetration of the IR beam into the sample. This is in contrast to transmission sampling where samples must be pressed into KBr pellets or thin films. PIKE Technologies offers numerous ATR accessories to enhance your FT-IR spectrometer for a wide range of applications. Featured here are PIKE Technologies’ variable angle ATRs.
Varying the angle of incidence provides the user with the power to alter the depth of penetration for customised ATR set-ups and for optimised spectral results. The VeeMAX III with ATR is a single reflection ATR and the ATRMax II is a multiple reflection ATR. Both allow changing the angle of incidence with a simple turn of a knob, and offer
configurability and flexibility to satisfy the most demanding
research labs. Interchangeable ATR crystal plates allow the user to tailor experiments. Temperature control options and automated versions for precision and repeatability are available for both accessories.
The VeeMAX III offers purgeable optics to remove atmospheric interferences; an internal polariser mount to allow changing the polariser setting without breaking purge; and high energy throughput for excellent-quality spectra. Applications include depth profiling, analysis of monolayers, and electrochemical experiments. It may also be used to investigate polymer orientation.
When additional sensitivity of multiple reflections is needed, the ATRMax II accommodates a wide range of samples by offering trough plates, flat plates and flow cells. The trough plate is ideal for liquids and gels, the flat plate for pliable films and polymers, and the flow cell for kinetic experiments. It comes purge-ready with enclosed optics.
