Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of explosives and related compounds by low-temperature plasma ambient ionization mass spectrometry.

TL;DR: Results demonstrate the potential usefulness and ruggedness of LTP-MS for the detection of explosives of different classes and the use of ion/molecule reactions to form adducts with particular explosives such as RDX and HMX was shown to enhance the selectivity and specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of explosives as negative ions directly from surfaces using a miniature mass spectrometer.
TL;DR: A miniature mass spectrometer was modified by incorporating a conversion dynode detector system and the appropriate electronics to allow the detection of negatively charged ions and signals characteristic of each of the explosives were observed in the DESI mass spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trace detection of non-uniformly distributed analytes on surfaces using mass transfer and large-area desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) mass spectrometry
TL;DR: A large area Desorption electrospray ionization source that produces a spray plume with an effective desorption/ionization area of 3.6 cm(2), some 200 times larger than given by conventional DESI sources is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmaceutical cleaning validation using non-proximate large-area desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
TL;DR: The DESI system was used to detect the APIs neostigmine, acebutolol, amiloride, amiodarone, ibuprofen, montelukast, potassium clavulanate, and beta-estradiol, easily satisfying the general acceptable limits set by the pharmaceutical industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rephasing ion packets in the orbitrap mass analyzer to improve resolution and peak shape
TL;DR: A method is described to improve resolution and peak shape in the Orbitrap under certain experimental conditions by detuning the voltage on the compensator electrode and leaving the ion packet with a narrower axial spatial extent and frequency distribution.
