Popis: | Ion-mobility spectrometry (IMS) in conjunction with radioactive ionization sources has been employed for field-portable applications for the past two decades. Recently, electrospray ionization (ESI) sources have been shown as a viable ionization source with IMS in- struments, enablingthe analysis of many nonvolatile compounds. Introduction of a liquid-sheath-flow ESI source enabled the direct analysis of water samples. The ESI source was built with relatively simple lightweight components, makingit feasible for use in field applica- tions. A comparison between traditional ESI solvent con- ditions (water plus organic solvent) and the liquid- sheath-flow concept shows the new source to be able to spray water samples directly without prior sample prep- aration. The novel electrospray ionization source was evaluated with two nonfiltered water samples, one from a snow sample and the other obtained from a local stream. In both cases, 1 ppm of Terbutryn (a widely used herbicide) was easily detected. 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Field Analyt Chem Technol 5: 91-96, 2001 |
