Triple Quadrupole LC-MS/MS for Food Safety, Pharma & Clinical Analysis | TQ50

Triple Quadrupole LC-MS/MS for Food Safety, Pharma & Clinical Analysis | TQ50

TQ50 — UHPLC Triple Quadrupole MS

Sub-ppb Detection | True MS/MS Capability | 0.4 FWHM Resolution

Choose TQ50 when you need definitive compound identification. Unlike single-quadrupole systems limited to unit mass resolution, TQ50 delivers true MS/MS performance with 0.4 FWHM resolution. The triple quadrupole architecture enables precursor and product ion monitoring for unambiguous quantification in complex matrices — from pesticide residues in food to therapeutic drugs in clinical samples.

Select Your Application

Food Safety

Pesticide residues, veterinary drugs, mycotoxins, illegal additives

Environmental

Water quality monitoring, soil contaminants, PFAS, emerging pollutants

Clinical Diagnostics

Therapeutic drug monitoring, newborn screening, biomarker quantification

Pharmaceutical

Impurity profiling, pharmacokinetics, metabolite identification

Forensic Toxicology

Drugs of abuse confirmation, poison detection, trace evidence

Why TQ50

0.4 FWHM Resolution
2ms Channel Switching
0.1fg Detection Limit
0.86% RT Reproducibility

Single Quad vs. Triple Quad

Single quadrupole systems provide mass filtering only — suitable for simple matrices with known interferences. TQ50's triple quadrupole architecture adds a dedicated collision cell for MS/MS fragmentation, eliminating matrix interferences through MRM transitions. This enables reliable quantification at sub-ppb levels in complex samples where single quad systems fail.
