Typical Analysis MRM method 1 MRM method 2 Simultaneous Analysis MRM method Simultaneous Analysis MRM method method Simultaneous Analysis MRM method 40min Innovative Technologies that Improve Accuracy and Throughput Thanks to two new technologies, the GCMS-TQ8040 enables high-sensitivity, high-precision analyses, even in simultaneous analyses with more than 400 components. For the first new technology, a new firmware protocol was introduced. As a result, data loading efficiency is improved, enabling MRM analysis with up to 32,768 transitions in a single analysis. For the second, Smart MRM was newly incorporated into the software. This method creation function automatically sets the optimal measurement time for each component. Data is only acquired for the elution time for the target components, so more components can be analyzed simultaneously than with previous models, without compromising sensitivity even in multi-component simultaneous analyses. While 400 pesticide components are conventionally separated for measurement in two or three methods, they can be aggregated by the GCMS-TQ8040 into a single method, so the number of analysis cycles can be significantly reduced. 7.0 6.0 5.0 4.0 3.0 ( 1,000,000) 5.0 7.5 10.0 12.5 15.0 17.5 20.0 22.5 Simultaneous Analysis of 439 Pesticides Using UFMS and Smart MRM ( 1,000) 8.0 278.00>109.00 7.0 278.00>125.00 278.00>169.00 6.0 5.0 4.0 3.0 ( 10,000) 3.0 165.10>108.10 2.5 165.10>93.00 165.10>65.00 1.5 0.5 ( 1,000) 2.5 314.00>245.00 314.00>56.00 314.00>270 1.5 0.5 7.5 5.0 2.5 ( 100) 264.00>176.00 264.00>230 264.00>148.00 12.75 13.00 13.25 13.50 16.75 17.00 17.25 17.50 17.00 17.25 17.50 17.75 21.25 21.50 21.75 20 Fenthion %RSD = 4.16% Pyributicarb %RSD = 2.39% Iprodione %RSD = 4.54% Indoxacarb %RSD = 4.03% Mass chromatogram and %RSD (5 ppb) 6

Simplified GC-MS/MS method development Smart MRM makes method development quick and easy. Whether starting from scratch to optimize transitions and collision energies for new compounds, or starting from an MRM database of known target analytes to build a custom MRM method, Smart MRM takes the stress and difficulty out of method development. MRM Optimization Tool Optimize MRM Transitions Automatically Determining and optimizing MRM transitions for new compounds can require significant development time. The MRM Optimization Tool automates the process by collecting product ion scan data and finding the optimum collision energy for each transition. Once established, the transitions are registered to one of the Shimadzu Smart Database files, and the MRM or Scan/MRM methods are created using Smart MRM. 8
Smart Database Compounds and Optimized Transitions The Shimadzu Smart Database is a database of related compounds (e.g. pesticides, drugs, metabolites, etc.) with optimized transitions and collision energies, CAS registry numbers, and Retention Indices (RI). The user can select from hundreds of pre-registered compounds in one of the Smart Database files, or add their own optimized transitions. The user selects the compounds to be analyzed, and Smart MRM builds the MRM or Scan/MRM acquisition method from the Smart Database with the push of a button. Smart MRM Automatic Method Creation Shimadzu s Smart MRM technology creates MRM and Scan/MRM methods by automatically adjusting the analytical dwell times for each transition in a method. For multi-component analyses, with hundreds of compounds and up to 32,768 transitions, adjusting the loop and dwell times for optimum sensitivity can be complex and difficult.

High-Sensitivity Ion Source The effect of the filament s electric potential on the ion source is reduced by placing more distance between the filament and ion source box. In addition, a shield blocks out radiant heat generated from the filament to ensure the ion source box temperature remains uniform. Since this prevents any active spots within the ion source, it provides higher sensitivity for analysis.

The rod bias voltage is dynamically optimized during ultrahigh-speed data acquisition, thereby minimizing the drop in sensitivity that would otherwise occur above 10,000 u/second. This is necessary for maintaining sensitivity at high scan speeds and acquiring superior mass spectra when performing product ion scans or simultaneous scan and MRM measurement in the Scan/MRM mode. (Patent: US6610979). Scan/MRM simultaneous analysis is possible by coupling high speed scanning with high speed MRM.

Metabolite Database Biological samples such as blood serum contain large amounts of interfering co-extractants. Due to co-elution of components, some compounds cannot be reliably analyzed using single quadrupole GC-MS. MRM measurements eliminate the effect of interfering background matrices, and enable the targeted compounds to be accurately and reliably identified. The Metabolite Database contains the information of a large number of metabolites included in biological samples. Along with Smart MRM, it supports highly sensitive metabolite measurement. 3-Hydroxyisovaleric acid-2tms ( 100,000) 7.5 131.10>73.00 247.10>73.00 5.0 2.5 ( 1,000) 247.00 205.00 15.0 15.5 16.0 15.0 15.5 16.0 Aconitic acid-3tms ( 10,000) 1.5 285.10>147.10 375.10>147.10 0.5 5.0 2.5 ( 100) 375.00 285.00 3 32.5 33.0 0.0 3 32.5 33.0 Kynurenine-3TMS ( 10,000) 4.0 307.10>218.10 307.10>192.10 3.0 7.5 5.0 2.5 ( 100) 424.10 307.10 43.5 44.0 0.0 43.5 44.0 44.5 Comparison of MRM (Left) and Scan (Right) Mass Chromatogram for Metabolites in Standard Serum Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer 15

Eco Friendly Eco-Friendly Design for Lower Running Costs in the Laboratory There is increasing public interest in reducing running costs and environmental stress. Reducing power consumption is a common concern in order to reduce both a laboratory's energy cost and CO2 emissions. In addition, helium carrier gas is a non-renewable, valuable natural resource. The GCMS-TQ8040 has eco-friendly features for saving power and carrier gas. Saving Power Consumption with an Ecology mode for Reduced Instrument Running Costs Equipping the instrument with Ecology mode reduces the power consumed in analysis standby mode by 36%, compared with the previous model. For nighttime GC-MS operation, Ecology mode can be set automatically, making it possible to reduce unnecessary power consumption. Ecology mode screen PC Reduction by 36% Reduced Power Consumption in Analysis Standby Mode When Ecology mode is entered, unnecessary power consumption by the GC, MS, and PC is automatically eliminated. The consumption of carrier gas is also automatically reduced. Furthermore, Ecology mode can be entered automatically after continuous analysis, so power and carrier gas can be saved automatically after the completion of nighttime analysis. Power Consumption (W) GC MS Standby in Normal (W) PC GC MS Standby in Ecology mode (W) 760 W 483 W Reduced Annual Power Consumption If Ecology mode is used over one year of operation*, power consumption can be reduced by 26% and CO2 emissions can be reduced by approx. 1.1 tons. *) This is based on 6 hours of use per day for 260 days under our standard analytical conditions. Power Consumption (kwh) Reduction in power consumption by 26% Reduction in CO2 emissions by 1.1 tons Normal mode Ecology mode 7640 kwh 5640 kwh Reduces Power Consumption of Indoor Air Conditioning The ecology mode reduces power consumption during the analysis standby mode. Consequently, it reduces heat output. The ecology mode not only saves instrument energy, it also helps save on the energy required to maintain the room temperature. This product is certified compliant with Shimadzu ECO-label standards. It consumes 36% less power than with the ecology mode switched OFF. Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer 19
