Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer
4th International Mass Spectrometry Imaging Society Conference (IMSIS 4)
IMSIS 4 will be held from November 16–19, 2026, at Doshisha University in Kyoto, marking the first IMSIS conference in Asia. Shimadzu will participate as a Diamond Sponsor and showcase its latest imaging solutions.
Shimadzu has released the MicrobialTrack MALDI-TOFMS Microbial Identification Software
MicrobialTrack is a new analytical platform that utilizes a vast database of theoretical prokaryotic protein masses predicted from genome sequences for MALDI-TOF MS-based identification of prokaryotic microorganisms. The database encompasses a wide array of previously unidentifiable bacterial and archaeal phylogenetic taxa, enabling the identification of uncultured and hard-to-culture microorganisms.

Maldi EasyCare Training Video has been uploaded.
The Shimadzu MALDI EasyCare solution offers a convenient way to perform routine maintenance on your system and increase your uptime. Manual cleaning of ion optics is safe, quick (period from venting to ion optics removal is approx. 10 mins), easy-to-do requiring no tools (except single-point use of flat blade screwdriver) and no technical expertise due to full guidance by software wizard. All cleaning materials provided.
Shimadzu has released the MALDI-EasyCare, Upgrade for the MALDI-8000 Series MALDI-TOF mass spectrometers
Maintain optimal performance of your system using MALDI EasyCare to manually clean the ion optics and autotune the instrument.
Shimadzu has released the FlexiFocus™
The FlexiFocus adaptor has been specifically designed to hold a FlexiFocus insert and position it optimally for analysis in the Shimadzu MALDI-8020 and MALDI-8030 benchtop MALDI-TOF instruments.
