Description

The Waters Vion is a benchtop, Travelling Wave Ion Mobility (TWIMS) enabled hybrid quadrupole Time-of-Flight (ToF) mass spectrometer used with electrospray and either UPLC, infusion or nanospray.  

The UNIFI software encompasses all instrument functions, data collection and analysis allowing a relatively simple operation.  The instrument is used for small molecule UPLC/MS quantitation, structural characterisation as well as protein or peptide characterisation using nanospray.  TWIMS CCS measurements are also possible.
