Now Part of Agilent

Important Information

Agilent has completed its merger with e-MSion, Inc. on March 21, 2023. e-MSion was founded in 2015 by Oregon State University scientists who developed the ExD cell, a compact add-on device that enables electron capture dissociation (ECD) and other modes of electron-induced fragmentation in benchtop mass spectrometers, including Agilent’s 6500 LC-QTOF series.

e-MSion is based in Corvallis, Oregon and Agilent is very happy that the talented e-MSion team has joined Agilent.
