What is LC/QTOF?

LC/QTOF stands for Liquid Chromatography/Quadrupole Time-of-Flight mass spectrometry. It is an analytical technique that combines the separation capabilities of liquid chromatography (LC) with the high-resolution and accurate mass measurement capabilities of a quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF) mass spectrometer. LC separates compounds in a mixture, and the QTOF analyzes the mass-to-charge ratio of the separated compounds and their fragments. This is commonly used in proteomics, metabolomics, drug discovery, food safety, and environmental analysis for identifying and quantifying compounds in complex samples.
