MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer Applied Biosystems

The 4800 Plus MALDI TOF/TOF™ Analyzer is the next generation of tandem time-of-flight MS/MS systems, providing the highest level of protein coverage, throughput, and confidence in quantitative proteomic analysis. The analyzer combines all of the advantages of MALDI in a flexible, easy-to-use, ultra-high-performance mass spectrometer with all the advanced capabilities of ProteinPilot™ v2.0 software.

- Ideal system for protein biomarker discovery, providing simultaneous identification and quantitation of up to 8 samples at a time (8-plex workflow) using iTRAQ™ Reagents.
- Fully supports LC MALDI workflows, allowing you to mass analyze without the time constraints of LC.
- Compatible with ProteinPilot v2.0 software for increased protein coverage and confidence in identification and quantitation results.
- OptiBeam™ on-axis laser provides ten times greater sensitivity to identify and quantitate low-abundance proteins in complex biological samples.
- High-resolution precursor ion selection, enabled by the QuanTIS™ precursor selector, lets you detect and identify peptides that other systems miss and makes it easier for you to interpret your data by simplifying MS/MS spectra.
- Simple experiment setup and fast mass analysis maximizes laboratory productivity.
- High-energy, information-rich fragmentation patterns unavailable on other instrument platforms enable you to analyze carbohydrates, lipids, and other biological components.
- Improved on-board computing capabilities handles large scale protein discovery studies with faster processing and automated data backup.
