Thermo DELTA V Advantage IRMS聽
The Thermo DELTA V Advantage IRMS measures small differences in the abundance of stable isotopes such as 13C/12C and 15N/14N.
Description
The Thermo DELTA V Advantage IRMS is a magnetic sector mass spectrometer designed to accurately measure small differences in the abundance of stable isotopes such as 13C/12C and 15N/14N. The Delta V EA-IRMS is a continuous flow instrument which employs an elemental analyser.
During analysis, samples undergo combustion in an oxygen atmosphere and are converted into simple gases (such as CO2 and N2). The evolved gases are ionised and separated before being detected by the mass spectrometer.
Measurement of the ratio of the ions corresponding to each gas produced can provide information about the biological, chemical or physical processes the material has undergone.
