Problems solved by technology

[0004] Problem 1: The heating area of ​​the sample droplet is small and the heat transfer efficiency is poor
Only the bottom of the vaporization chamber of the device is heated, and the wall is not heated. After the liquid is dripped into the vaporization chamber, only the part that is in contact with the bottom of the vaporization chamber, that is, the lower part of the droplet, is heated, and the part that is not in contact with the bottom is heated. For example, the upper part of the droplet and the middle part of the droplet are not heated, so the heating efficiency is very low
[0005] Problem 2: The thermal shock method results in too short contact time between the sample droplet and the heat source, reducing heat transfer
Although this effectively prevents thermal energy from being converted into molecular internal energy, thereby avoiding thermal degradation, but because the contact time between the liquid sample and the hot plate is extremely short, only a small part of the liquid droplets entering the vaporization chamber, that is, the part that is in contact with the hot plate is destroyed. Gasification, and the resulting rapid expansion, which makes the part of the droplet that is not heated is also pushed out of the gasification chamber, but this part of the sample has not been vaporized or atomized, and cannot be used for ionization and enter the mass spectrometer for detection

Abstract

A rapid evaporation electrospray ion source and an analysis method, the invention relates to a rapid evaporation electrospray ion source and an analysis method, and belongs to the technical field of atmospheric pressure mass spectrometry ionization. The ionization source is composed of four parts: electrospray generating unit, heating unit, vaporization chamber and sampling unit. Put the gasification chamber into the heating unit and heat it to T B ‑T L The sample solution is dripped into the gasification chamber using the sampling unit; when the sample vapor rises to the entrance of the mass spectrometer, the sample vapor is converted into sample ions using the electrospray ionization unit, and these ions are then introduced into the mass spectrometer for detection. The operation is simple, no sample pretreatment is required, and high-throughput online detection can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a rapid evaporation electrospray ion source and an analysis method, belonging to the technical field of atmospheric pressure mass spectrometry ionization. Background technique [0002] We have developed a thermal shock gasification electrospray ionization source and mass spectrometry system (patent number: ZL201610018823.6). This method applies the sample solution to the heat source, and the sample deforms instantly when it contacts the heat source, changing from a liquid state to a gaseous state. Since the contact time between the sample solution and the heat source is very short, the heat absorbed by the sample solution is only used to overcome the intermolecular force, and is not converted into internal molecular energy, which will not lead to the degradation of the compounds in the sample. Heating technology is applied to thermal instability and mass spectrometry analysis of biological macromolecules, especially in the anal...
