MUNICH, Germany – Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR) is showcasing some of its latest innovations at Analytica 2024:

Applied and industrial markets solutions

The new EVOQ DART-TQ⁺ mass spectrometer simplifies high-throughput testing with its integrated DART ion source, eliminating the need for upfront chromatography. With a 20-second analysis time per sample, it provides a fast solution for routine food and environmental testing. By bypassing traditional chromatography methods, it enhances productivity and uptime while lowering the cost of ownership. It offers a quick switch to LC-MS for conventional water and food testing.

The ecTOF is a novel GC-HRMS that records EI and CI spectral data in one GC run. It combines parent ion data (via soft CI) and NIST-searchable fragment ion spectra (70 eV EI) to reduce false positives and identify unknown compounds in complex samples. The ecTOF also improves analysis speed, instrument uptime, and expedites data post-processing. This elevates the analysis of complex samples in targeted, suspect, and non-targeted GC-HRMS.

The new BEAM FT-NIR uses Bruker’s RockSolid™ interferometer for accuracy and stability. Designed for quality control, it is IP65-protected and suitable for solid and semi-solid materials, and can be fitted on pipelines, hoppers, or conveyor belts. The BEAM improves manufacturing process control and minimizes variations. Its single-point FT-NIR process analyzer allows quick analysis in process environments, ensuring long-term stability for minimizing waste and rework.

The D6 PHASER makes advanced XRD methods accessible for cleantech markets. Dr. Jan Vos, Researcher at Magneto Special Anodes, stated: “We are heavily invested in the development of electrocatalytic coatings that will form the beating heart of the next generation of water electrolyzers in the green energy transition. Bruker’s D6 PHASER provides us with the extraordinary power, flexibility, and accuracy needed to push our coating development forward. We will have access to advanced X-ray techniques crucial for material science that were previously not available in a compact benchtop system.”

Gracing Incidence X-ray Fluorescence (GIXRF) for the S4 T-STAR® excites a flat sample by changing the beam angle. The resulting signal profiles vary based on sample type, mass, and thickness. GIXRF offers non-destructive material analysis with a compact benchtop TXRF spectrometer, used for quick qualitative assessments of structures such as nanoparticles, monolayers, or layered systems. This enables the monitoring of diffusion in multilayer systems and the study of metal dopant depth profiles in substrates.
