Winner

Mass Spectrometer Supplier of the Year

Thermo Fisher Scientific

CiteAb's new instrument database covers nearly 2,000 instruments and over 750,000 citations. Mass spectrometer instruments are essential for sample identification and analysis in proteomics, metabolomics, and much more.

This brand new award celebrates the supplier whose mass spectrometers are most widely cited, supporting impactful global research.

We used the following methodology to determine the award winner:

  • Limiting analysis to mass spectrometer data
  • Calculating the supplier with the largest citation share in the previous year

Our congratulations to Thermo Fisher Scientific, winners of the Mass Spectrometer of the Year Award.

Thermo Fisher Scientific offer a broad range of solutions for life scientists, including a number of mass spectrometers for analysing proteins, drug metabolites and more.

Justin Ngai, who leads on our Instrument Data, commented:

"High citation counts showcase strong support of research. This award recognises suppliers whose instruments are central to enabling analytical work across the life sciences, so congratulations to the team at Thermo Fisher Scientific for their win!"
