Straightforward operation with the ACQUITY QDa Mass Detector

DART, coupled with the QDa mass detector, brings the power of routine direct analysis to your laboratory. The QDa is proven to consistently generate high quality mass spectral data, routinely and without the need for any special training or expertise, thus eliminating any need to outsource work and wait for results from specialist analytical service laboratories.

Bringing the benefits of real time direct analysis to your laboratory

The IonSense^® DART is a desorption APCI (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization) technique where heated, ionized gas is directed at a target between the DART interface and the QDa mass detector. It can ionize molecules from the surface of a solid, liquid or vapor making it applicable to a broad range of applications. The speed of generating mass spectra with minimal or no sample preparation makes DART QDa an ideal tool within laboratories where rapid informed decisions are necessary.

Rapid, easy-to-interpret classification of samples

The LiveID software platform enables real-time classification of sampling using DART QDa. Information is provided to the user immediately at the time of analysis, enabling informed and instant decision making while removing doubt over sample identity. First, authentic or verified samples are used to create and validate a statistical model. The validated model can then be used with test samples and generate live classifications. The output is a simple to interpret yes/no answer.
