Benchtop Linear MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometer
MALDI-8020
MO432
The MALDI-8020 is the latest in a longline of MALDI-TOF products fromShimadzu. This benchtop, linearMALDI-TOF mass spectrometer deliversoutstanding performance in a compactfootprint, making it an ideal choice fortoday’s increasingly demandinglaboratories.
Key features:l Linear mode (positive ion) MALDI-TOF
l 200 Hz solid-state laser, 355 nm
l Load-lock chamber for fast sample introduction
l UV laser-based source cleaning (patented)
l Small footprint/benchtop design
l Quiet operation (<55 dB)
Linear mode instruments have traditionally been the
instruments of choice in MALDI-TOF-based quality control
(QC) and profiling workflows, and the MALDI-8020 is no
exception. Peptides, proteins, polymers or oligonucleotides -
the instrument is capable of delivering the performance
required for QC applications. Research laboratories will also
benefit from the MS capabilities of the instrument through
the rapid mass-measurement of samples.
Sample target solutionsCompatible with the FlexiMass™ series of microscope
slide-format sample targets, these slides provide researchers
with options depending on their experimental workflow.
The individually barcoded, single-use FlexiMass™-DS slides
provide a convenient solution for more routine or defined
workflows. Ready-to-use, these disposable targets eliminate the
need for cleaning and the risk of carryover. Alternatively, the
reusable stainless steel FlexiMass™-SR sample targets provide
a cost-effective, longer-term solution to sample preparation.

TrueClean™ automated source cleaningTo maintain instrument performance over time, the
MALDI-8020 features wide-bore ion optics - a feature used
on our existing MALDI-TOF products - which minimize the
risk of source contamination over time, providing a robust
platform.
To maximize uptime, the system is equipped with TrueClean -
an automated, rapid (<10 min) UV laser-based source
cleaning which can be used to clean the extraction electrode
in-situ without breaking instrument vacuum.
Facilitates 21 CFR Part 11 complianceOperating under the control of MALDI Solutions™ software,
the software features a centralized, secure Microsoft® SQL
database which can be used to store everything from sample
lists and acquisition Parameter Sets to acquired MALDI data.
The system is managed by an Administrator and customizable
user profiles provide control over access to the database and
operation of the instrument. Along with a full audit trail, the
software provides the tools to help achieve 21 CFR part 11
regulatory compliance.
Quality as standardAs mass spectrometry moves into clinical laboratories, the
MALDI-8020 is the perfect choice for researchers developing
MALDI-based diagnostic methods†. The system is designed
and manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016
quality management standards and is CE compliant.
Through the selection of components demonstrating
improved longevity and performance, and by reducing the
number of component parts, our engineers have created a
reliable and robust platform capable of delivering
outstanding performance in a small footprint.
The MALDI systems are maintained by trained service support
engineers who form part of the Shimadzu global distribution
and support network. Routine maintenance is simplified
thanks to the instrument design, providing our engineers
with easy access to commonly serviced parts.
