Thermo Fisher Scientific has launched the Orbitrap Exploris EFOX Mass Detector, a first-of-its-kind high-resolution accurate mass (HRAM) Orbitrap system specifically designed for routine food and environmental safety labs. This innovation meets a critical need for labs navigating the complexities of persistent pollutants like PFAS, pesticides, and emerging contaminants.

A Lab-Ready System That Combines Accuracy and Simplicity

Unlike systems adapted from research, the EFOX is optimized for day-to-day workflows. With minimal training required and fast sample-to-result capability, the platform helps lab managers improve efficiency while maintaining analytical integrity.

Key benefits:

  • Built-in workflows for rapid compliance with environmental testing standards
  • Industry-leading PFAS sensitivity
  • Intuitive Chromeleon CDS integration for easy reporting
  • Retrospective analysis capabilities for adaptive testing

"Offering an easy-to-use high-resolution mass detector helps ensure more labs can conduct critical full-scan, accurate mass high-resolution data monitoring, provide local testing across more areas of concern and ultimately accelerate quality controls to make our environment and food safer," said Lidija Raicevic, vice president and environmental and food safety lead, Thermo Fisher Scientific.

Empowering Lab Managers for Evolving Regulatory Needs

The Orbitrap Exploris EFOX enables labs to adapt quickly to regulatory changes, thanks to its retrospective data analysis capabilities. Its seamless pairing with the Vanquish dual-channel UHPLC boosts productivity while reducing complexity.

Thermo Fisher continues to support a full range of workflows, including the TSQ Altis Plus EFOX MS for triple quadrupole analysis.
