Waikato Mass Spectrometry Facility

MALDI-TOF

Bruker Daltonics Autoflex™ Spectrometer.

ESI-MS

Bruker Daltonics MicrOTOF™ Spectrometer; high resolution, electrospray ionisation-time-of-flight instrument.

Fisons VG Platform II; low resolution quadrupole instrument generally used for inorganic compounds.

ICP-MS (E2 INSTRUMENTS)

Perkin-Elmer SCIEX ELAN DRC II inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer; sample introduction may be as solution or by laser ablation with the associated New Wave 213-A/F laser ablation system. One instrument is dedicated to laser, while the other is dedicated to solution.

GC-MS

Hewlett Packard 6890 GC interfaced with a Hewlett Packard 5973 quadrupole Mass spectrometer. Electron impact or chemical ionisation is available.

SPR

Biacore® 3000 surface plasmon resonance instrument.

LCMS

The LCMS couples a Dionex Ultimate 3000 HPLC with a photo diode array detector to a Bruker amaZon X mass spectrometer (ESI or APCI source).
