چکیده

Ambient ionization mass spectrometry is achieved in a simple manner by loading a sample solution onto a corner of a microscope cover glass positioned in front of the inlet to a mass spectrometer and applying a high voltage to the sample. The resulting stream of charged droplets is stable, has no contamination from the substrate platform, and can be used repeatedly. The utility of droplet spray for in situ analysis and real-time monitoring of chemical reactions was demonstrated by the bis(cyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride (zirconocene dichloride)/methylaluminoxane, Cp2ZrCl2/MAO, homogeneously catalyzed polymerization of ethylene in various solutions. Reaction times ranged from seconds to minutes, and catalytically active species and polymeric products of ethylene were acquired and identified by tandem mass spectrometry.

Characterization of truck-mounted atomization equipment typically used in vector control.

The control of medically important arthropod vectors of human and animal disease is a high priority for both public health and military officials. Because droplet size of pesticide spray material is a critical factor affecting vector control applications, the droplet-size spectra produced by 11 sprayers and 3 spray formulations were evaluated. Droplet-size spectra were measured by a laser diffr...

Operational Note Samplers for Evaluation and Quantification of Ultra-low Volume Space Sprays

A field study was conducted to explore the suitability of 5 pesticide deposition samplers for airborne spray and ground deposits from ultra-low-volume (ULV) space sprays. Samplers included horizontally stretched stationary cotton ribbons at 2 heights, rotating ribbon, rotating Teflon slides, and filter paper. Slides were also used for droplet-size analysis. A set of 7 samplers of each type was ...

Mountant control on glass.

Some microscope slide mountants exhibit a tendency to spread beyond the periphery of their cover slips, flowing over the edge and under the slide, fouling the stationary and moving components of the mechanical stage. In the authors' experience, mountants that are most commonly associated with this problem are alcohol, lactophenol, water and other water-soluble preparations of low viscosity. The...

Droplet Analysis with Electrospray Ionization Mass Spec- Trometry Using an Integrated Glass Microchip

ABSTRACT We describe an integrated microchip for droplet analysis with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). The chip integrated multiple modules of droplet generator, droplet extraction interface, and monolithic ESI-emitter. A novel droplet extraction interface based on a hydrophilic tongue structure was developed to transfer droplet from segmented phase to aqueous phase with hig...
