Automated sample handling and customizable reporting capabilities support high-throughput workflows while maintaining compliance and traceability, essential for regulated environments.
FAQ's of PerkinElmer QSight 210 LC/MS/MS System:
Q: How does the StayCleanTM self-cleaning source technology benefit laboratory operations?
A: The StayCleanTM self-cleaning source technology sustains peak instrument performance by automatically removing contaminants from the ion source, thereby reducing manual maintenance and minimizing instrument downtime, which increases efficiency in busy labs.
Q: What types of analyses can the QSight 210 LC/MS/MS system perform?
A: The QSight 210 is designed for both quantitative and confirmatory analyses, ideal for pharmaceutical quality control, food safety testing, and environmental monitoring applications requiring high sensitivity and accuracy.
Q: When should I use ESI versus APCI ionization modes on this system?
A: Use Electrospray Ionization (ESI) for polar, thermally labile compounds typically found in biological or pharmaceutical samples. Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization (APCI) is better suited for less polar, more volatile analytes, extending the system's application range.
Q: Where can the QSight 210 system be installed and operated?
A: This system is suitable for installation in laboratories that maintain an ambient temperature between 15 and 35C and relative humidity below 80% (non-condensing). Its robust build and relatively quiet operation position it well for diverse research and quality assurance environments.
Q: What processes are automated with the QSight 210?
A: The system supports fully automated sample introduction via compatible LC systems, as well as automated data acquisition and analysis using Chromera software, enhancing throughput and reducing operator intervention.
Q: How is data managed and accessed on the QSight 210 LC/MS/MS?
A: All experiment setup, control, acquisition, and analysis are managed via Chromera CDS integration, accessible through a 10.4-inch color touchscreen running on a Windows platform. Data can be easily exported, archived, and reviewed across secure networks using USB or Ethernet interfaces.
Q: What is the practical benefit of the QSight 210's exceptional sensitivity and accuracy?
A: With sensitivity in the attogram to nanogram range, the system allows for accurate detection and quantitation of ultra-trace levels of target compounds. This ensures regulatory compliance and supports rigorous quality standards in pharmaceutical, food, and environmental testing.
