Hello to the community,
We are planning to purchase a Maldi-ToF system to expand our MS capabilities.
I have noticed the Spiral-ToF from JEOL.
However, the device is probably a niche product at Jeol.
Does anyone here have experience with this System and can say something about performance, serviceability and support from Jeol.
Thanks in advance for the information

Hi Joachim,
may I ask for which application(s) you wish to use this product ?

Hello Thierry Nicolas,
we are in many cases service providers for the various working groups in our department and the university.
Some of the samples come from the field of coating technology/surface technology. This involves crosslinking mechanisms and their optimization. At this point MS imaging would also be interesting to visualize a distribution in a surface.
We also receive samples from the field of biotechnology with large molecules, such as biosurfactants (mass > 20000 u).
In addition, we get samples from the field of ecotrophology, mainly physiologically relevant food ingredients such as glycans and proteins. Here, too, imaging would be helpful to show their distribution in a food.
We are currently using LC-Q-ToF and LC-Orbitrap for these samples. However, not all questions can be clarified with these methods, as the mass range is too limited.
Thank you for further information
Joachim Horst
