AXIMA Assurance™ - Flexibility and Quality

The AXIMA Assurance is designed with Positive and negative ion modes are included as standard,
the general analytical and life science allowing greater flexibility and extending the compound
categories that may be analyzed. The system also

incorporates a patented beam blanker to optionally
variable repetition rate 50Hz N laser, remove unwanted low mass ions and prevent detector

the system provides high quality, rapid saturation.
MALDI mass spectra and an array of High sensitivity is achieved using near-axis laser
software tools for data processing and irradiation and advanced ion optics for enhanced ion
reporting. transmission. Pulsed extraction of ions from the MALDI
source improves resolution and enhanced calibration
algorithms with easy-to-use software provide more
accurate data.
Unparalleled flexibility is achieved by a variety of sample
target formats including standard microtitre plate format
96 or 384 well targets. FlexiMass™ microscope slides
(plain or 48 well targets) and a wide variety of adaptors
for unconventional sample layouts are also available. The
standard sample target formats are fully compatible with
common laboratory robots.
