Maldi TOF

Maldi TOF Technical Specification

TOF 3100 is a Matrix-Associated Laser Desorption/Ionization Time of Flight (MALDI-TOF) Mass Spectrometry (MS) developed by ATL. TOF 3100 provide automated, high-speed and high-confidence identification and taxonomical classification of bacteria, yeasts, fungi and filamentous fungi based on proteomic fingerprinting. Numerous studies have demonstrated the higher accuracy, faster time-to-results and lower costs provided by MALDI TOF technology compared to classical methods. ? TOF 3100 was modular designed which enable upgrading of the system for new application, identification of Mycobacteria, potential bio-terroristic strains and species and creation of local database.
