Thermo Fusion Orbitrap Tribrid MassSpectrometer with ETD Fragmentation  

The versatile Fusion Orbitrap Tribrid mass spectrometer accommodates a variety of analysis types. This instrument is used for everything from routine protein identification to post-translational modification identification and localization using one of its three fragmentation mechanisms (CID, HCD,and ETD). Its tribrid design also permits higher order tandem MS scans, meaning that we can make use of

PacBio Sequel II is here! (January 2020)

Our new shiny Sequel II is here. We believe that this instrument is a game changer for denovo assembly and annotation of eukaryotic genomes, for sequencing of full-length 16S from metagenomic samples, sequencing of PCR amplicons or DNA fragments with high accuracy and full characterization of transcriptomes, including splice variants . Let us know if you have any
