The Pegasus® BTX has been nominated to win the “Coolest Thing Made in Michigan” Award

The Pegasus BTX is the newest instrument addition to LECO’s line of separation science instruments manufactured in St. Joseph, Michigan (USA).

As a highly sensitive mass spectrometer, the BTX helps keep consumer items safe and reliable by analyzing the chemical makeup of everyday products. Using the power of gas chromatography – mass spectrometry, it detects trace levels of contaminants to ensure the food we eat is safe, verify the quality of fuels, monitor environmental pollutants, and support the development of safer consumer products.

Fragrance manufacturers, research labs, major food and beverage producers, universities, and more all use the BTX to ensure their products are up to high-quality standards and meet regulations, or to discover new information about what something is made of.
