Shimadzu product profile
In Europe four Shimadzu product series carry the eco-label representing the company’s multi-levelled energy saving program. The GCMS-QP2010 Ultra and SE and the LC-20AP systems, as well as the new GC-2025 and the TOC-L series feature the eco-label. It tags only the most energy efficient instruments which meet the highest environmental standards. Users profit from lower running and maintenance costs and less energy spending.
The eco-labelled systems save between 25 and 40% energy. Furthermore, materials consumption is lower, operational costs are less and the CO2 emissions have been reduced. More environmentalists systems are already in the production pipeline.
The GCMS-QP2010 Ultra features an eco-mode for stand-by operation allowing a lower total cost of ownership with less environmental stress. The GC-2025’s power consumption is reduced by 30% for programmed temperature analysis in comparison to other GC models. The energy consumption of the TOC-L series has been reduced by 36% (100 V) and 43% (200 V) in comparison with conventional Shimadzu models (assuming 8 hours opera-tion/day × 5 days/week).

The Next Frontier for Mass Spectrometry: Maximizing Ion Utilization
January 20th 2025In this podcast, Daniel DeBord, CTO of MOBILion Systems, describes a new high resolution mass spectrometry approach that promises to increase speed and sensitivity in omics applications. MOBILion recently introduced the PAMAF mode of operation, which stands for parallel accumulation with mobility aligned fragmentation. It substantially increases the fraction of ions used for mass spectrometry analysis by replacing the functionality of the quadrupole with high resolution ion mobility. Listen to learn more about this exciting new development.
The Complexity of Oligonucleotide Separations
January 9th 2025Peter Pellegrinelli, Applications Specialist at Advanced Materials Technology (AMT) explains the complexity of oligonucleotide separations due to the unique chemical properties of these molecules. Issues such as varying length, sequence complexity, and hydrophilic-hydrophobic characteristics make efficient separations difficult. Separation scientists are addressing these challenges by modifying mobile phase compositions, using varying ion-pairing reagents, and exploring alternative separation modes like HILIC and ion-exchange chromatography. Due to these complexities, AMT has introduced the HALO® OLIGO column, which offers high-resolution, fast separations through its innovative Fused-Core® technology and high pH stability. Alongside explaining the new column, Peter looks to the future of these separations and what is next to come.
