We are very pleased with the performance of the Aurora column that can be applied to most proteomics studies. They allow us to acquire MS data with higher quality and especially improved in-depth proteomics output.

We have switched all our instruments from in-house packed 35cm emitters to Aurora columns. Their performance is equal or superior to our in-house packed columns, their spray-stability and durability is exceptional, they are fool-proof to install and last hundreds of runs.

We have recently started to use the Aurora columns and they significantly outperform any other columns that we have ever used for nano-LC-MSMS, by providing much higher peptide coverage in proteomics and phosphoprotemics.

"...in 60 minute gradients using an Aurora-25 cm column, more than 7000 protein groups and 60,000 peptides were identified"

#diaPASEF and #PaSER Run & Done on the new @bruker #timsTOFPro2 absolutely smashing it 💪
