These innovations are designed to streamline workflows, improve data quality, and deliver more consistent, confident results across laboratory applications.
Agilent 9500 Triple Quadrupole ICP‑MS
The Agilent 9500 ICP‑MS is designed to simplify the transition from single quadrupole to triple quadrupole ICP‑MS while maintaining familiar workflows. The system introduces innovations including Air Cell and Advanced Helium Mode (AHM), enabled by Agilent's proprietary Dual‑Cell System (DCS). The system delivers confident interference removal and fast acquisition for advanced trace elemental analysis.
Agilent 8890B and 8860B GC Systems with GC Assist
Featuring new GC Assist instrument intelligence, these GC systems combine updated hardware with integrated monitoring, diagnostics, and guided troubleshooting. The platforms are designed to help laboratories improve data quality, reduce unplanned downtime, and operate more efficiently across routine analytical applications.
Agilent Multi‑Attribute Method (MAM) Solution
Designed to support adoption of LC/HRMS in regulated biopharmaceutical quality control environments, Agilent’s MAM solution integrates software, instrumentation, and consumables into a single workflow. The solution enables monitoring of multiple critical quality attributes and supports routine QC workflows in regulated environments through integration with OpenLab CDS and high‑resolution mass spectrometry systems such as the Agilent 6230C LC/TOF.
