Proxeon's nanoflow liquid chromatography system,EASY-nLC, has been adopted by a number of the world's leading proteomic centersfor what Thermo calls "its exceptional simplicity and ease of use." The system features,among other things, an intuitivegraphical user interface, touch-screen operation and remote diagnosticscapability. The compact system footprint includes a unique autosampler, whichallows reproducible low-nanoliter injections into the mass spectrometer, reportedlypermitting researchers to improve productivity without comprising performance.The system also provides two-dimensional chromatographic capability to identifymore proteins than conventional methods, without the increased complexity ofadded valves and pumps.
"By offering a high-performance solution thataddresses the need for simplified operation, we can meet the increasing demandfor LC/MS in proteomics applications," says Marc N. Casper, president and chiefexecutive officer of Thermo Fisher Scientific. "These systems can be easilyintegrated with our leading ion trap, hybrid and triple quadrupole massspectrometry systems, in line with our strategy of providing comprehensiveLC/MS solutions for both high-end research and routine applications."
