Hi guys.. I need to choose one from Qtrap 4500 and Triple Quad 8050.
My priority is to get the instrument which is "Fit for Purpose", the matrix that I am going to analyse is Honey so I will be looking very sensitive residues, pesticides, antibiotics. The detection limit of some compounds is up to 0.0010 mg/kg. I know that both Sciex and Shimadzu has a good reputation in MS but I would like to get some feedback. your help will be very much appreciated
