Method development in membrane inlet mass spectrometry. Air analysis and desorption techniques
Membrane inlet mass spectrometry (MIMS) is an established technique for the analysis of volatile organic compounds in aqueous solutions and in air. A thin membrane is the only interface between a liquid or gaseous sample at atmospheric pressure and the vacuum of a mass spectrometer. Since its introduction about 35 years ago MIMS has been applied mainly in biochemistry and environmental analysis...
متن کاملMonitoring of human chemical signatures using membrane inlet mass spectrometry.
This work is an attempt to assist border security crackdown on illegal human immigration, by providing essential results on human chemical signatures. Data was obtained using a portable quadrupole mass spectrometer coupled with a membrane probe for volunteers of both genders and under different conditions in a container simulator. During experiments, participants were asked to follow various pr...
متن کاملMembrane inlet mass spectrometry for homeland security and forensic applications.
A man-portable membrane inlet mass spectrometer has been built and tested to detect and monitor characteristic odors emitted from the human body and also from threat substances. In each case, a heated membrane sampling probe was used. During human scent monitoring experiments, data were obtained for inorganic gases and volatile organic compounds emitted from human breath and sweat in a confined...
متن کاملHigh-Resolution Measurement of Volatile Organic Compounds Dissolved in Seawater Using Equilibrator Inlet-Proton Transfer Reaction-Mass Spectrometry (EI-PTR-MS)
We have developed an equilibrator inlet-proton transfer reaction-mass spectrometry (EI-PTRMS) system for the high-resolution measurement of the concentrations of multiple volatile organic compounds (VOCs) dissolved in seawater. The equilibration of six VOCs (dimethyl sulfide (DMS), isoprene, propene, acetone, acetaldehyde, and methanol) between seawater samples and the carrier gas, and the resp...
متن کاملCalibration of an in situ membrane inlet mass spectrometer for measurements of dissolved gases and volatile organics in seawater.
Use of membrane inlet mass spectrometers (MIMS) for quantitative measurements of dissolved gases and volatile organics over a wide range of ocean depths requires characterization of the influence of hydrostatic pressure on the permeability of MIMS inlet systems. To simulate measurement conditions in the field, a laboratory apparatus was constructed for control of sample flow rate, temperature, ...
