IMS allows the user to determine the collision cross-section of a molecule, the separation of ions with equal mass and charge but different collisional cross section, which is also another confirmation of compound identity and an indicator of compound structure.
The Vion delivers clear and comprehensive ion mobility mass spectrometry data for routine analyses of complex samples. As with all of Waters Ion Mobility enabled mass spectrometers the benefit of including CCS data and additional separation capability simplifies analysis and increases confidence in results.
The Vion’s workflow-driven UNIFI software and streamlined instrument controls ensure maximum usability, including automatic set-up
