Used primarily for ESI or DART high-resolution (~12,000) analysis for accurate mass measurements (within 5 ppm).   ESI is well suited for polar molecules soluble in methanol, water, or acetonitrile and DART is best for non-polar molecules. Samples for DART can be measured neat as a solid or liquid or solubilized in a solvent. For ESI, samples are prepared in HPLC vials and injected through an auto-sampler for high-throughput analysis. An Agilent 1100 HPLC for LC-MS applications is also available for this instrument. For comparative purposes, an in-line UV detector is also available for LC-UV-MS analyses.
