What Can the GC/Q-TOF Do?
3/2/2015 3
TOF mode (full spectrum acquisition) • High resolution full spectral acquisition • Accurate mass measurements • Fast acquisition of full spectra
Q-TOF mode (MS/MS) • Full spectrum of Product Ions (SIM-TOF)
- With high resolution and accurate mass
• Selectivity beyond any “triple quad” MRM method - Confirm TOF spectrum without interferences
• High sensitivity structural elucidation tool
Ideal tool for solving complex analytical problems

Screening Pesticides with a GC-Q/TOF
• Accurate Mass provides added compound selectivity - Higher resolution provides added interference selectivity • TOF mode : Always full spectral data, Non-targeted acquisition • ‘Unlimited’ number of compounds can be screened (search
accurate mass compound database for identification) • Sensitivity is the same regardless of number of compounds
screened • MS/MS (Q/TOF Mode) further assists compound
identification
