Showcasing High-Performance PTR-TOF Solutions at analytica 2026

We are proud to announce our participation in analytica 2026 (Booth A2.413A). As the world’s leading manufacturer of Proton Transfer Reaction - Mass Spectrometry (PTR-MS) technology, we will demonstrate why our instruments remain the gold standard for both academic research and high-stakes industrial monitoring.

Unrivaled sensitivity in real-time

When rapid data is critical, IONICON’s PTR-TOF systems continue to lead the industry by detecting Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) with a market-leading detection limit of less than 0.1 pptv and a mass resolution of m/Δm > 20000. Unlike traditional methods, PTR-MS enables high-performance real-time analysis without the need for time-consuming sample preparation.
This combination of speed and sensitivity has made us a trusted partner in a wide range of fields, including environmental and climate research, engine emissions testing, and NASA airborne science missions. Whether it is food and flavor profile analysis or conducting medical breath analysis, IONICON offers the precision required for the most demanding scientific inquiries.

From excellence in the laboratory to industrial automation

At analytica 2026, IONICON will highlight its growing presence in the industrial sector with a suite of automated solutions. IONICON’s real-time trace gas analyzers for the semiconductor industry play a key role in AMC contamination management in cleanrooms, FOUPs, and in the field of Advanced Packaging, a key technology for manufacturing AI-chips. Furthermore in Fenceline Monitoring and Property Line Monitoring applications, PTR-TOF enables continuous emission tracking, allowing industries to monitor and respond to pollution levels as they occur.
Joining the lineup is also the new VOCentinel, a compact and robust PTR-TOF mass spectrometer designed for continuous real-time quantification with minimal user interaction. Designed for long-term air quality monitoring and industrial applications, the VOCentinel offers a simple interface for tracking various chemical classes – including aromatics, amines, and siloxanes – while requiring minimal space for easy integration into mobile platforms or 19-inch racks. 

Advancing analytical precision: Highest mass resolution with the FUSION PTR-TOF 20 

IONICON is pleased to announce its latest breakthroughs in high-performance trace gas analysis. Leading the charge in mass resolution is the FUSION PTR-TOF 20, an ultimate-performance analyzer featuring the next-generation ioniTOF and an ultra-clean FUSION reaction chamber. It offers a market-leading detection limit below 1 pptv and a mass resolution of up to 25,000 m/Δm, providing unmatched precision for complex mixtures.

Expanding analytical versatility: Isomer separation with PTR-SLIM-TOF

While maintaining its core leadership in PTR-TOF technology, IONICON has integrated Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulation (SLIM) technology through a sublicense agreement with MOBILion Systems, Inc. to complement raw analytical power with physical separation capabilities. The resulting PTR-SLIM-TOF is set to revolutionize the analysis of complex mixtures by adding high-resolution ion mobility to IONICON’s trace-level VOC platforms. This allows researchers to physically separate isomers in milliseconds.
