The Massbox combines Exum's patented, dual-laser (LALI) ionization source with industry-leading Time-of-Flight (TOF) mass analyzer. LALI utilizes one laser to remove material from a solid sample and a second laser to subsequently ionize neutrals. This process removes many of the elemental fractionation, spectral interferences, and matrix effects that plague other techniques. The wavelength and power of the first laser can be selected to accommodate both ablations for inorganic elemental analysis or desorption, for organic analysis.
By applying the lessons and sensibilities of the mobile application market, Exum™ has designed a software package unlike any other. A cloud-based data storage system means your data is available anywhere in the world instantly.
Our interface is built with your perspective in mind. Let us handle the setup and calibration, you put your sample in, choose your analysis locations, and press GO!
