Enhanced Analysis and Imaging Capabilities on Display at JEOL Pittcon Booth #2224

March 12 , 2013 (Peabody, MA) -- JEOL's latest mass spec instrumentation, NMR technology, and analytical scanning electron microscopes (SEM) will be on display at Pittcon 2013 in Philadelphia, PA, March 18-21 in booth 2224. The new AccuTOF GCv 4G mass spectrometer, the NeoScope Benchtop Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the InTouchScope SEM will be in the booth #2224. Technical experts will be in the booth and also presenting during two key events.

JEOL will hold a press conference on Monday, March 18th from 10:30-11,Room #103C. The half-hour discussion features speakers Dr. Chip Cody and Mr. David Edwards of JEOL USA. Topics include:

  • Introduction of the new AccuTOF GCV 4G time-of-flight mass spectrometer. For the first time, this instrument will be shown in the U.S. and will be paired with the Zoex GCxGC interface used with JEOL’s unique EI/FI ion source. The AccuTOF GCV 4G is the only high-resolution mass spectrometer that combines comprehensive gas chromatography with high-resolution mass spectrometry and a choice of EI, CI and FI ion sources. The JEOL combination EI/FI source offers a powerful and routine alternative to chemical ionization for a wide range of applications.
  • Introduction of the new capabilities of the SpiralTOF MALDI-TOF-TOF mass spectrometer, including MALDI imaging and LC/MALDI-MS, including correlative microscopy between the SpiralTOF and JEOL's SEM product line. The SpiralTOF's 17-meter flight path minimizes the effect of topographic variations on samples, such as biological tissues and fingerprints, and maintains high mass-resolving power.
  • Open air analysis is no longer a novelty – it has become a must-have technology for mass spectrometry in a multitude of fields. JEOL continues to lead in developing new DART methods and applications for its AccuTOF-DART system.
  • The newly redesigned NeoScope benchtop SEM features integrated Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) with SDD technology for advanced analytical applications. The NeoScope offers selectable accelerating voltages and up to 60,000X magnification - all in a simple-to-use, benchtop instrument.

Additionally, JEOL will participate in the Japan Symposium on March 19, Room 122B, from 2:40-3:15 with a presentation by Dr. Thomas Isabell entitled "Aberration Corrected Electron Microscopy: Structure Determination and Chemistry on the Atomic Scale." http://www.jeolusa.com/Portals/2/events/Pittcon_2013_Japan_Symposium.pdf
