LECO?s TruTOF? GC-TOFMS is a cost-competitive, Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOFMS) instrument in a benchtop design.
LECO’s TruTOF™ GC-TOFMS is a cost-competitive, Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOFMS) instrument in a benchtop design. The TruTOF has both electron impact (EI) and chemical ionisation (CI) ‘plug-and-play’ ion source options for optimal flexibility in the laboratory. Choosing TruTOF GC-TOFMS offers speed of analysis and fully automated data processing by taking advantage of the LECO ChromaTOF single software platform with True Signal Deconvolution® (TSD®).
Data acquisition and data processing efficiency is achieved using data acquisition rates of up to 80 spectra/second across the full mass range (5 to 1000 u) combined with data deconvolution. Reliable mass spectral deconvolution & peak assignment relies on the spectral continuity across the chromatographic peak and is the reason the LECO TOFMS is the detector of choice.
LECO’s ChromaTOF software package is world regarded for its flexibility and logical ease of use. Using a single software platform for a fully automated data acquisition and data processing solution also provides the operator with continuity and an organised, easy to handle workspace.
LECO’s TruTOF GC-TOFMS gives you more information with less sampling time and saves precious people time.

Fundamentals of Benchtop GC–MS Data Analysis and Terminology
April 5th 2025In this installment, we will review the fundamental terminology and data analysis principles in benchtop GC–MS. We will compare the three modes of analysis—full scan, extracted ion chromatograms, and selected ion monitoring—and see how each is used for quantitative and quantitative analysis.
Characterizing Plant Polysaccharides Using Size-Exclusion Chromatography
April 4th 2025With green chemistry becoming more standardized, Leena Pitkänen of Aalto University analyzed how useful size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) could be in characterizing plant polysaccharides.
