MACROMOLECULE ANALYSIS

TSI offers instruments that analyze the molecular weight of biomolecules and the chemical composition of particles. Applications range from proteomics to virology, from drug delivery studies to chemical/biological detection, from atmospheric aerosol research to engine exhaust analysis.

The macroIMS™ Macroion Mobility Spectrometer, combines electrospray technology with ion mobility analysis and macroion detection. The macroIMS system enables high flow-through, high-speed mass and/or size analysis of macromolecules. Its rapid, continuous-flow scan rate, on the order of seconds, along with its ultrawide mass range that extends well beyond a megaDalton, makes the macroIMS system an excellent tool for analytical and preparative separations. Applications include characterization of proteins, lipoproteins, nucleic acids, whole viruses, and whole cell organelles.
