Dramatically Improves GC/MS Analysis Productivity

Next level volatile component analysis simplified

The photoreaction evaluation system PQY-01 is the successor to the photoreaction quantum yield evaluation system QYM-01. This system can measure the number of photons absorbed, which is necessary for calculating the quantum yield of photoreactions.

Py-Screener™ Ver. 2 is designed to screen for brominated flame retardants, such as PBBs and PBDEs, and phthalate esters in polymers. These substances are regulated under the Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS (II) Directive) in Europe. The pyrolyzer GC/MS (Py-GC/MS) is used to selectively detect and quantify these restricted substances thermally…

The IRXross Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer creates a new concept for infrared spectroscopy. It offers the optimal solution for a new era with diverse application requirements.

The XSeeker 8000 bench-top X-ray computed tomography (CT) system is equipped with a high-output X-ray generator and a high-resolution flat panel detector. 

The Shimadzu Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer AA -7800 Series is versatile enough for a variety of analytical applications (Any Application), safe and easy to use even for beginners (Any User), and offers continuous analysis using autosamplers and remote data analysis via network connections to increase the flexibility of the analysis operator's work style (Any Location).

This instrument is equipped with a cutting-edge FE electron optical system, which provides unprecedented spatial resolution under all beam current conditions, from SEM observation conditions up to 1 μA order. Integration with high performance X-ray spectrometers that Shimadzu has fostered through the company's traditions achieves the ultimate advance in analysis performance.

Both hardware and software incorporate the latest technologies to create the next generation of EPMA. New functions that offer simple and easy-to-understand operation have been added to the superb basic EPMA performance that Shimadzu has fostered over many years – high sensitivity, high accuracy, and high resolution – to allow the EPMA's capabilities to be exploited to the fullest. While easy enough for even novices to use, i…

The LCMS-9050 is a Q-TOF mass spectrometer designed for the most reliable and easy acquisition of accurate masses in real laboratory settings. The proprietary innovation for fast polarity switching has the unique capability for high-confidence identification of challenging compounds and high-throughput screening of multiple unknowns.  

The matrix vapor deposition device iMLayer is a device that applies a matrix used by the vapor deposition method when performing MS imaging with a mass spectrometer such as the imaging mass microscope iMScope or the MALDI-7090. 

The AIRsight Infrared/Raman Microscope is a unique microscope that combines both infrared and Raman spectroscopy into a single instrument, offering complementary molecular information. This system can be connected to Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometers including the IRTracer-100, the IRXross, and the IRAffinity-1series.​  The AIRsight significantly enhances analytical efficiency by streamlining all process…

YMC-Triart columns are well-suited to a variety of applications in pharmaceutical and chemical laboratories.  Eight different phases are available, all trifunctionally bonded, in column sizes ranging from .075 – 300mm ID.

"Smaller, simpler, and easier to use – without compromising performance." That’s the demand from analysts. And that’s why Shimadzu developed the Brevis GC-2050. 

The ICPMS-2040 Series and ICPMS-2050 Series inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers (ICP-MS) provide approximately twice the sensitivity of conventional models through the use of a uniquely designed plasma torch (a mechanism to generate plasma). 

The MAP-100 automatic microplastics pretreatment unit is the first in the world to automate the process of extracting and collecting microplastics in oceans, rivers, lakes, and other water in the environment. To accurately analyze microplastics in aqueous samples, an essential step is to isolate the particles from other components in the sample. The MAP-100 automates acid treatment and density separation processes, as well as…

Reversible Flip Seal—Same Cost, Twice the Lifetime New reversible Flip Seal inlet seals from Restek last twice as long as other inlet seals. Simply use—flip—then use again. The reversible design doubles the number of analyses you get per seal. •Same easy sealing as Dual Vespel® Ring Inlet Seals—no extra washer needed. •Lower leak rate than OEM metal seals. •Maximum transfer of analytes to column, due to highly inert gold or Si…

• Optimized deactivation produces maximum response when analyzing trace levels of acetylene, methyl acetylene, and propadiene. • Stable response factors make this column ideal for process-type applications where recalibration must be minimized. • High loadability reduces peak tailing and improves separations. • Extended temperature range up to 250 °C for fast elution of high molecular weight (HMW) hydrocarbons and accelerated…
