Environmental Monitoring Applications of Direct Mass Spectrometry

Conventional methods for analysis of trace volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air, soil and water usually involve significant sample preparation followed by slow chromatographic analysis. Direct mass spectrometry (DMS) provides opportunities for simplification – or even elimination – of sample preparation, plus real-time or high-throughput sample analysis.

This webinar introduces selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS), a DMS technique that provides highly sensitive and selective analysis of a wide range of compounds by applying eight rapidly switchable soft chemical ionization agents. Diverse VOCs (such as benzene and formaldehyde) and inorganic gases (such as sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide) are detected in a single, simple analysis. Various environmental applications of SIFT-MS are discussed, ranging from real-time ambient air monitoring to high-throughput soil and water analysis.

By viewing this presentation you will learn...

The fundamentals of the selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) analytical technique, including how it reduces sample prep and analyzes samples directly.
How SIFT-MS delivers immediate analytical results for chemically diverse VOCs and inorganic gases, benefiting a wide range of environmental applications.
How SIFT-MS can be adapted to diverse sample introduction needs.

SIFT-MS simplifies and greatly accelerates analysis of VOCs and many inorganic gases in diverse matrices. This webinar will demonstrate how SIFT-MS:

Can be applied to real-time analysis of VOCs in applications such as ambient and fenceline monitoring
Revolutionizes sample throughput in routine testing laboratories
Is very flexible in its sample delivery options.
