Zoex Corporation introduced a high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer at Pittcon 2010. Combined with the Zoex GC x GC thermal modulators, this GC x GC x TOFMS provides high sensitivity and high resolution.
Minimum performace specifications are mass resolution 4,000 at 500 Th, mass measurement accuracy of +/-0.002 Th; acquisition rate of 100 spectra per second; and 3+ orders of linear dynamic range. Maximum specifications are considerably higher, and will be discussed at the press conference. The device is fully supported by industry standard GC Image software, which is capable of elemental composition determinations based upon exact mass measurements.
