Agilent Jet Stream Technology Ion Source G1958B (New)

The Jet Stream Technology Ion Source with Part Number G1958B is a high‐performance electrospray ionization (ESI) source designed to enhance the sensitivity and robustness of liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) systems.

It is engineered for demanding analytical applications, such as in pharmaceutical, environmental, and biochemical analyses. By delivering higher ionization efficiency, the ion source supports lower detection limits and improved quantitative performance.

Key Features

• Focused Electrospray: The jet stream technology creates a finely tuned gas flow that effectively focuses the electrospray plume. This mechanism improves the transfer of ions into the mass spectrometer, a critical factor in achieving high sensitivity.
• Heated Nebulizer and Gas Flows: An integrated heated nebulizer along with optimized sheath and auxiliary gas flows promote rapid solvent evaporation. This is important for minimizing cluster formation and ensuring that the ion beam is stable and well-defined.
• Robust and Reproducible Performance: Designed for routine use, the G1958B ion source is built to maintain consistent performance over extended periods, which is crucial in high-throughput analytical laboratories where reproducibility and reliability are key.

Compatibility and Usage

• Instrument Integration:This ion source is generally intended for integration with specific LC–MS platforms. Users should refer to their instrument’s documentation or contact the manufacturer for compatibility details and installation procedures.
• Maintenance and Service:As with many specialized components in analytical instrumentation, regular maintenance (such as cleaning and performance checks) is important to sustain optimal performance.

The Jet Stream Technology Ion Source (G1958B) is a critical component in advanced LC–MS systems, designed to deliver enhanced sensitivity and reproducibility through its innovative ionization and desolvation technology.
