REIMS Research System with iKnife Sampling Device
Direct molecular profiling in seconds

Waters Rapid Evaporative Ionization Mass Spectrometry (REIMS) Research System with iKnife Sampling Device combines direct-from-sample ionization with high-performance time-of-flight (Tof) MS and powerful, intuitive informatics, for fast, and easy molecular profiling with zero sample preparation.
The innovative iKnife handheld sampling device produces information-rich vapor directly from the sample surface, which when analyzed by a Tof MS, provides analysts with an accurate molecular profile within seconds.
The combination of these two technologies enables users in applications such as food, microbiology, and pre-clinical tissue research to quickly and easily differentiate samples from one another and confidently identify the differentiating features, allowing greater insight into the chemical, and biological systems under investigation.
