Audience and purpose
This guide is for operators of varying levels of experience. It gives an overview of the device and
explains how to prepare it for operation, change its modes of operation, and maintain it.
Intended use of the Xevo TQ-GC
Waters designed the Xevo TQ-GC as a research tool for authenticated mass measurement; it is
not intended for In vitro diagnostic use. It is intended for use only by qualified laboratory
personnel.
Calibrating
When calibrating mass spectrometers, consult the instrument's online Help system for calibration
instructions.
Quality control
Routinely run three QC samples that represent subnormal, normal, and above-normal levels of a
compound. If sample trays are the same or very similar, vary the location of the QC samples in
the trays. Ensure that QC sample results fall within an acceptable range, and evaluate precision
from day to day and run to run. Data collected when QC samples are out of range might not be
valid. Do not report these data until you are certain that the instrument performs satisfactorily.
