Bruker CaptiveSpray-The key to performance and reliability for nano flow MS
Nanoflow LC-MS in daily laboratory work is still one of the bigger challenges in proteomics. The Bruker CaptiveSpray source is a revolutionary ion source with a patented design that provides easier operation than even standard electro spray. CaptiveSpray delivers nanospray sensitivity, resists plugging, and provides reproducible uninterrupted flow for even the most complex proteomics samples.
Plug-and-Play
The CaptiveSpray source mounts directly onto all current Bruker electrospray mass spectrometers. The Ion Transfer Interface connects directly to the front of the capillary eliminating the need forcomplex XYZ adjustable stages.
Reliability & Robustness
CaptiveSpray is providing nanospray sensitivity with the ease of use and robustness of ESI. The patented Etch Taper™ technology provides a spray tip that is not internally tapered like the tip of a typical pulled NSI needle. This results is significantly less clogging of the spray tip allowing more samples to be analysed with greater confidence.
MS performance
CaptiveSpray allows higher flows, resulting in faster runs with shorter solvent delay. The ability to use larger columns with higher loading capacities provides higher sensitivity and dynamic range than conventional nanospray. The stable and reproducible nature of the spray makes the CaptiveSpray ideal for quantitative proteomics.
