Embodiment Construction

[0051] The present disclosure describes mass spectrometry methods and devices utilizing a soft and quantitative ionization source based on glow discharge ionization. first reference Figures 5A-5B, discloses a regulated glow discharge ionization mass spectrometry device 50 and an accompanying regulated glow discharge ("CGD") method described in more detail hereinafter. turn to Figure 14 , which presents a review of the advantages of various ionization methods. The CGD method (summarized in row 1411 ), which can be implemented, for example, by using device 50 , was compared with other ionization methods (summarized in rows 1401-1410 ). Figure 14 Indicates that some methods do provide ionization with specific properties (indicated by "Yes"), others do not provide ionization with such properties (indicated by "No"), and some methods have limited ability to provide certain properties ( denoted by "some").

[0052] Although soft ionization methods such as ESI and MALDI (and A...

Abstract

One aspect of the disclosure provides a method of mass spectrometric analysis that includes producing either glow discharge within a noble gas between 3-100 mBar pressure, sampling and conditioning glow discharge products within a gas flow through a conductive channel (55), removing charged particles while transferring excited Ridberg atoms, and mixing conditioned discharge products with analyte flow within an enclosed chamber at elevated temperatures above 150 DEG Celsius for producing a Penning reaction between analyte molecules and Ridberg atoms. The method further includes sampling, by a gas flow, said analyte ions for mass spectrometric analysis, and at least one of the following steps: (i) removing charge within said conditioning channel (55); (ii) coaxially mixing of analyte flow with the flow of conditioned plasma; and (iii) cooling of the mixed flow within a sonic or supersonic jet for reducing the region of Penning ionization to cold jet.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to mass spectrometry. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to mass spectrometry utilizing a soft and quantitative ionization source based on regulated glow discharge ionization. Background technique [0002] The development of soft ionization methods such as electrospray (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption / ionization (MALDI) has extended the domain of mass spectrometry to a broad class of labile compounds—such as peptides, nucleotides, proteins, and lipids— And has given rise to the development of a wide range of biological and medical applications. These methods are known to be limited to compounds that readily generate ions in liquids (such as ionic salts), and to readily generate protonated ions MH + and deprotonated ion (M-H) - polar compounds. With the introduction of atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI) methods, the range of softly io...
