Capillary electrophoresis – Mass spectrometry
Our lab has unique expertise in capillary electrophoresis, a separative technique adapted to charged and water-soluble species.
In Toulouse, we have the only equipment coupled to a spectrometer that allows precise characterisation of species during separation.
Equipment features
CE/MS Agilent Technologies:
- CE 7100, sample-pass carousel
- temperature from 10 to 40°C
- UV-visible detector from 190 to 600 nm
- Triple Quad, ESI source, mass range: m/z 50 to 2000 for coupling with capillary electrophoresis
Bruker micrOTOF-QII, coupled with UHPLC Thermo Ultimate 3000:
- ESI ionisation source (electrospray)
- mass range: m/z 50 to 4000
- mass accuracy: 1 ppm
