We offer mass spectrometry services to the BU community, other institutions, and the private sector at competitive rates. Please contact us for details.
The Agilent Single-Quad LC/MSD VL is an open access single-quad low resolution (1 decimal place) instrument capable of in both ESI positive and negative modes up to 1500 m/z. Method types available are flow injection analysis (FIA – no column) and liquid chromatography (LC – C18 column) mass spectrometry. Solvents are Water and Acetonitrile spiked with 0.1% formic acid. Training sessions are available. Please contact us.
The Agilent GC-MS 6890N is a gas chromatography instrument equipped with a MS detector up to 800 m/z. The ionization is electron impact (EI) and software is ChemStation. This instrument is equipped with a 100 vial sample tray and is used both for teaching and research.
The Bruker autoflex Speed is a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer equipped with a SMART-beam II and a flash detector. Software packages include BioTools, PolyTools and fleximaging. The instrument is supported by NSF CHE-1337811.
The Thermo Scientific LTQ XL ETD is a linear trap equipped with an additional ETD mass spectrometer. This instrument is well-suited for metabolomics and proteomics projects.
The Thermo Scientific LTQ-FT-ICR is a 7 T Fourier-Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance mass spectrometer. On the front-end, is a linear ion trap that can run alone or accumulates ions for ultra high resolution analysis in the ICR cell. The FT-ICR provides ultra high resolution and high mass accuracy for ions within complex samples (<1 ppm). This instrument is well-suited for metabolomics and proteomics projects.
The Waters QTof Premier is a quadrupole – time of flight hydrid high resolution (4 decimal places) system capable of both positive and negative modes up to 8,000 m/z. Please consult with QTof sample submission guidelines before submission. Tandem MS/MS is also available, please contact us if you would like to invite us to participate in your project.
The CIC houses seven mass spectrometers: five LC/MS, one GC-MS and one MALDI-TOF. Most of the instruments are available for open access operation after training. Please contact the CIC for training. All instrumentation are available for both research and teaching.
