| ====Triple Quad systems====
| |
| Sciex offers four different Triple Quad systems for tandem mass spectrometry paired with liquid chromatography (LC-MS/MS): the 6500+, 5500, 4500, and 3500. The company claims that with these systems "scientists can acquire multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), precursor, neutral loss, and product ion scans to develop powerful methods for complex matrices, all while maintaining reproducibility and robustness."<ref name="SciexTQ">{{cite web |url=https://sciex.com/products/mass-spectrometers/triple-quad-systems |title=Triple Quad LC-MS/MS Systems |publisher=AB Sciex Pte.
