LTQ
The LTQ offers legendary MSn performance, incorporating more techniques to generate structural information through innovations in ion trap technology. The LTQ offers two dissociation techniques, CID and PQD. Pulsed Q Collision Induced Dissociation (PQD) is a patented technique that eliminates the low mass cut-off concern inherent with all ion traps. This results in extensive coverage for predicted and unpredicted metabolites, and the ability to perform peptide quantification using iTRAQ™ labels.
