Product Details

The MacroIMS system is an instrument designed for rapid, high resolution size analysis of nanoparticle colloids, proteins and other macromolecules down to 2.5 nm, and spanning a mass window of 8 kDa to >100 MDa. The power of the macroIMS system is its ability to analyze nanoparticles and macromolecules that are too large for mass spectrometry (MS), but with a level of accuracy and resolution not achievable via light-scatter based detectors. While other instruments used for sizing particles in liquids try to cover many magnitudes of size, the MacroIMS system focuses on superior performance over the nanoparticle size range generating research quality data.

Applications

The MacroIMS Macroion Mobility Particle Sizer Model 3980 can be used for many applications:

  • Macromolecule size analysis
