Speed is Power.




                           Accurate mass analysis of sharp chromatographic peaks obtained by UFLC requires ultra-fast MS detection capabilities.
 Greater speed.            The LCMS-2020 offers UFswitching for rapid polarity switching between the positive and negative ionization modes
                           and UFscanning for ultra-fast scan measurements to capture the sharpest UFLC peaks.
 Greater sensitivity.
