Ion trap time-of-flight mass spectrometry

AXIMA Resonance Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry Series

AXIMA ResonaceTM is a time-of-flight mass spectrometer developed by Shimadzu and is currently available in the MALDI-TOF market. Kenichi Tanaka is one of the main researchers and engineers behind this instrument. In addition to being able to perform all the basic functions of MALDI-TOF and MALDI-TOF-TOF currently available in the market, the feature of this instrument is its ability to perform high-quality and accurate analysis using multi-stage mass spectrometry. For many years, many mass spectrometry instruments have been powerless in the study of post-translational modifications of proteins in life sciences. However, the performance of this instrument enables these problems to be easily solved. Especially in complex glycoprotein research and analysis, by crushing glycopeptides in TM multi-stage mass spectrometry, complex peptide sequences, glycosylation sites, and sugar chain structures can be resolved. At present, many research institutions that conduct post-translational modifications use this instrument for in-depth research in this area and publish high-level academic articles.
