Identification of Cigarette Ashes by Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART-MS)
[Posted: 16 June 2025]
This study establishes a Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART-MS) method for rapid identification and classification of cigarette ashes.
Rapid Discrimination and Quality Assessment of Chinese Baijiu Flavor Profiles using SICRIT-MS Analysis
[Posted: 16 June 2025]
To establish a rapid and high-throughput method for discriminating Chinese Baijiu flavor types and assessing quality using Soft Ionization by Chemical Reaction in Transfer (SICRIT) coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS).
Identifying the presence of mould on bread by ASAP-MS
[Posted: 6 February 2025]
According to healthline1, any type of bread mould should be assumed to be harmful and not be consumed. Mould is a fungus, which survives by absorbing and digesting the nutrients from the material on which they grow.
Determination of batch production of illicit drugs through MVA statistical modelling using an ASAP MS detector
[Posted: 6 February 2025]
Rapid testing for the detection of illicit materials (e.g. narcotics), onsite, at social gatherings (festivals), transport locations ( airports etc) has been shown to be easily achieved using a small, commercially available, deployable ASAP MS detector with four function library matching.
Rapid Detection of Illicit Materials: A New Simplified Acquisition and Improved Processing Software for Targeted Compound Detection
[Posted: 28 June 2024]
Rapid testing for detecting illicit materials (e.g., narcotics or energetic materials) at social gatherings (such as festivals) and transport locations (such as airports) is of increasing interest to improve security and public safety. Advances in ambient ionization techniques and the development of small, deployable mass spectrometric systems have made rapid analysis of such samples possible. However, mass spectrometry has traditionally been considered too complex for use as a simple detector due to cumbersome data processing, even for targeted detection.
Evaluating the Suppression Tolerance of a Novel Walk-up Desktop Trace Detector
[Posted: 28 June 2024]
Purpose: Determine the tolerance of a new thermal desktop threat detection system to common interferents that can suppress performance, create false positives/negatives, produce large background noise, or simply inhibit detection.
