Vacuum Insulated Probe Heated Electrospray Ionization) is a cutting-edge ion source designed to enhance sensitivity and optimize mass spectrometry (MS) analytical tasks. With its heated electrospray technology, VIP-HESI significantly increases ion yield, surpassing the capabilities of standard electrospray. This leads to a substantial gain in sensitivity for a wide range of compounds, making it an invaluable tool in metabolomics and pharmaceutical analysis, environmental analysis, food testing, and forensic drug investigations. With a proven track record as a robust workhorse ion source on Bruker TripleQuad mass spectrometers for nearly a decade, VIP-HESI has become an industry favorite.
One of the significant advantages of VIP-HESI is its compatibility with a wide range of instruments. The latest version can be used with all timsTOF and QTOF (Quadrupole Time of Flight) series instruments and can be quickly and easily installed. Leveraging its advanced features, VIP-HESI achieves sensitivities comparable to those of leading Triple Quad MS for diverse compounds. Furthermore, it retains the advantages of accurate mass values with TIP (True Isotopic Pattern). Operating the VIP-HESI is straightforward, thanks to its simple parameters, and it includes an efficient active exhaust system, enabling seamless upgrades from conventional sources.
The enhanced performance, the VIP-HESI system offers the microFlow emitter as an optional addition to its standard ESI sprayer.
