ABI Qstar Elite vs. Agilent 6520
Posted: Thu Dec 11, 2008 7:21 pm
Hi,
We're looking to purchase a high-res machine to look at our antibodies. We're looking at intact protein, reduced antibodies and peptide mapping. Agilent is offering a demo 6520 and ABI is offering a refurbished QStar Elite. The specs are very close, as is the price. I was looking for opinions on the user interface, as well as the deconvolution software. I've got lots of experience with the ABI triple quads, (which were great) and a little on the Agilent MSD (which I hated). any opinions would be greatly appreciated
