Pedro Antunes, Senior Tech. & Co-Ordinator Organic Chemistry

Environment Reference Lab, APA – Agência Portuguesa do Ambiente "Initially we had some fears about whether the option of the time of flight detector would be the best for our laboratory, since we have no other system of this kind installed. However, at the end of 6 months of operation with the GC-TOFMS system, it was widely recognized internally that…

Dott. Marcello Manfredi

Università degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale, Italy "With the Pegasus BT 4D performing untargeted analysis today is very easy, thanks to the high sensitivity of the instrument, we are able to mine and analyze any type of sample! A combination of very good sensitivity, quality to price ratio and high flexibility make the Pegasus BT 4D system perfect for analysis…

Prof. Antonio Randazzon

University of Naples, Italy "Pegasus BT is the perfect choice for identifying well-known metabolites at low concentration level in our sample, and also discovering new compounds. The most surprising advantage of the BT system is the ion source robustness! We usually work with dirty and complex samples, but we have never observed drop of sensitivity during our analyses.This reduces the…

Alex Dickens, Co-Ordinator

TURKU Metabolomics Facility, Finland "We use the LECO Pegasus BT instrument for the quantiﬁcation of small polar metabolites. We developed a hybrid method where we quantitate 51 metabolites with standard curves and screen for any other small polar metabolites in a wide range of biological samples. This assay has a great dynamic range thanks to the sensitivity of the BT.…

Ph.D. Jan Rezek, Ing.

Czech Academy of Science, Tschechische Republik "Compared to GC equipped with a single column, the Pegasus 4D enabled me to separate unbelievable number of analytes! Tens of thousands of separated peaks in one run was not an exception. But where the separation was not perfect, ChromaTOF software and its deconvolution algorithm did the job. Such excellent ‘separating power’ helped me…
