ETP - Innovations in MS
ETP, a subsidiary of the SGE Group, is a leading manufacturer of
product solutions for mass spectrometry. A worldwide technical and
distribution network support the company's global presence throughout
The Americas, Europe, Japan, Asia Pacific, India, China and The Middle
East. ETP's primary R&D, product development and manufacturing
divisions are located in Sydney, Australia.
A continual
commitment to product quality is reinforced by an equally important
commitment to research. ETP's industry and technical knowledge
encompasses experience in the fields of general electronics, signal
processing and conditioning, very high frequency TOF and pulse-counting
operation, and dead-time correction.
Founded in 1976, ETP became directly involved in the development of
electron multipliers in early 1980, continuing a program started at
Australia's leading research institution, the Commonwealth Scientific
and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO).
The company
introduced its first-generation product, which incorporated replaceable
dynodes, in 1982. This technology was superceded in 1991 by the ACTIVE FILM Multiplier™
technology developed by ETP which provided superior performance and
robustness necessary for high Mass Spectrometry throughput
applications. Since that time, ETP has supplied detectors to end users
and manufacturers of mass spectrometers worldwide.
