Bruker timsTOF MALDI-2 with nanoElute System

Equipment overview

Bruker timsTOF MALDI-2 Trapped Ion Mobility Spectrometry - Quadrupole Time-of-Flight mass spectrometer coupled with nanoElute LC System

The Bruker timsTOF MALDI-2 with nanoElute is an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) and MALDI platform designed for deep proteomics, metabolomics, and spatial-to-solution workflows. By coupling the high-sensitivity timsTOF MALDI-2 mass spectrometer with the robust nanoElute nanoflow LC system, this platform delivers exceptional chromatographic separation, robust CCS-enabled 4D proteomics, and unmatched analytical depth.
