The MALDI-8020 is the latest in a long line of MALDI-TOF products from Shimadzu. This benchtop, linear MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer delivers outstanding performance in a compact footprint, making it an ideal choice for today’s increasingly demanding laboratories.

Key features:

  • Linear mode (positive ion) MALDI-TOF
  • 200 Hz solid‒state laser, 355 nm
  • Load-lock chamber for fast sample introduction
  • UV laser‒based source cleaning (patented)
  • Small size due to benchtop design with a compact footprint
  • Quiet operation (<55 dB)

Linear mode instruments have traditionally been the instruments of choice in MALDI-TOF-based quality control (QC) and profiling workflows, and the MALDI-8020 is no exception. Peptides, proteins, polymers or oligonucleotides ‒ the instrument is capable of delivering the performance required for QC applications. Research laboratories will also benefit from the MS capabilities of the instrument through the rapid mass-measurement of samples.
