Abstract: A method of analyzing a liquid with a mass analysis device having a bubble generating interface (BGI) and a removal conduit includes aspirating a sample into the removal conduit at an aspira-tion pressure. Concurrently with aspirating the sample at least one operational condition of the BGI is controlled to generate a plurality of bubbles in the sample. Concurrently with aspirating the sample the plurality of bubbles are aspirated into the removal conduit. The sample and the plurality of bubbles are analyzed with the mass analysis device to generate a signal.

Abstract: A method of evacuating a liquid sample from an open port interface (OPI) via a pressure drop includes applying the pressure drop to a transport liquid. This application generates a plurality of bubbles in the transport liquid during evacuation of the transport liquid from the OPI via a transfer conduit. The liquid sample is separated from a subsequent liquid sample by at least one of the generated bubbles.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide for charge state control of multiply-charged anions in a front end, high pressure ion guide. In some example aspects, a mass spectrometer system is provided comprising a first vacuum chamber (121) maintained at a pressure above about 500 mTorr. At least one ion guide (106) is disposed within the first vacuum chamber, the at least one ion guide comprising a plurality of rods extending along a central longitudinal axis. A controller (193) is configured to adjust an amplitude of an RF voltage signal provided to the plurality of rods so as to alternatively operate the ion guide in a first mode of operation with a lower amplitude of the RF voltage signal so as to reduce the likelihood of charge reduction by electron detachment so as to substantially maintain the isotopic distribution of the ions during transmission of ions through the ion guide, and a second mode of operation with a higher amplitude of the RF voltage signal so as to increase the likelihood of electron detachment from ions being transmitted therethrough.

Abstract: A known compound and at least one adduct, modified form, or peptide of the known compound are separated from a sample mixture and analyzed. An XIC is calculated for each of M product ions of the known compound and L product ions of the at least one adduct, modified form, or peptide. A first XIC peak group is calculated from the M XICs and a second XIC peak group is calculated from the L XICs using curve subtraction. Representative first and second XIC peaks are selected for the two XIC peak groups. The retention time of the second XIC peak is shifted by an expected retention time difference found from a database. The retention time of the first XIC peak is verified as the retention time of the known compound if the difference of the retention times of the first and second XIC peaks is within a threshold.

Abstract: A method of adjusting a position of a tip of an electrode relative to an end of a nebulizer nozzle of a mass spectrometry device includes providing a conduit and the electrode connected to the conduit at a first end of the conduit. The electrode tip is disposed at a first position relative to the nebulizer nozzle end. The pressure gauge is connected to a second end of the conduit. A gas ejection is initiated from the nozzle with the electrode tip at the first position. During the gas ejection, the position of the electrode tip is adjusted from the first position towards a second position relative to the nozzle end. Adjusting the position from the first position towards the second position is terminated when the pressure gauge displays a pressure condition. Once adjusting is terminated, the electrode tip is at the second position.

Abstract: A method of operating a differential mobility spectrometer (DMS) includes providing a heater disposed proximate a ceramic body of a DMS cell. A first control voltage is applied to the heater. A first threshold is detected by a first sensor disposed within a curtain plate that substantially surrounds the DMS cell. A second control voltage is applied to the heater based at least in part on the detected first threshold. During application of the second control voltage, a mass spectrometry analysis of a gas within the DMS cell is performed.
