摘要:
The present invention provides, inter alia, apparatuses and methods for ionizing samples that are in gaseous phase or can be vaporized/sublimated. The samples include samples to be analyzed and mass calibrants that serve as standards. In addition, the present invention also provides calibrant formulations that release mass calibrants in a slow, controlled manner.
摘要:
A method of facilitating analysis of a peptide in a mass spectrometer comprising derivatizing the C-terminus of the peptide with an amino acid residue via a reaction with a carbodiimide reagent, yielding a derivative peptide, ionizing the derivative peptide with a double charge, and fragmenting the ionized derivative peptide in a mass spectrometry system, wherein binary fragments of the ionized derivative each include a charge, facilitating sequence analysis of the peptide.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a mass spectrometer that includes an ionization source having a chamber for ionizing a fluid sample. The ionization chamber has surfaces to reduce the overall interaction with reactive samples. The inner surface walls of the ionization chamber may be formed from an inorganic conductive nitride or disulfide material or may be applied to a substrate as a coating. The invention also includes a method for reducing the interaction of a reactive analyte with the inner wall of the chamber by application or coating the inner wall of the chamber with an inert conductive material.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for removing neutral noise from a quadrupole mass filter ion beam. A mask plate has a lobed aperture centered on a longitudinal axis and positioned between a quadrupole mass filter exit end and an ion detector. The mask plate operates to remove neutral atoms from the ion beam that may interfere with instrument sensitivities. The lobed aperture passes the ion beam with little loss of the ion beam intensity. The invention substantially maintains signal intensity and removes unwanted noise from a mass spectrometer.

Hydrocarbons and other compounds are halogenated to halocarbon products by contact with a halocarbon in the presence of an acidic zeolite catalyst such as ZSM-5. The process is particularly useful for the halogenation of methane to form chemicals of higher value.
摘要:
Alpha-picolines are produced by containing aniline or substituted anilines, such as alkyl-, cyclo alkyl-, halo- ; alkoxy- or substituted alkyl-anilines with a crystalline zeolite catalyst having a silica:alumina ratio of at least 12 and a constraint index of 1 to 12. ZSM-5 type catalysts are contacted at elevated temperature to yield alpha-picolines selectively.

The present invention relates to an ionization source having a chamber for ionizing a sample. The ionization chamber has surfaces to reduce the overall interaction with reactive samples. The inner surface walls of the ionization chamber or the ionization chamber may be formed from an inert super alloy. For instance, Inconel™ 625, Inconel™ 601 or Hastelloy® may comprise the ionization chamber or the surface walls of the ionization chamber. The invention also includes a method for reducing the interaction of a reactive analyte with an ion source.
摘要:
Synthesis gas is converted with high selectivity to higher alcohols over a three component oxide catalyst based on(i) copper(ii) a metal of Group VIA, VIIA or VIIIA(iii) a metal of Group IVA or VA.The preferred catalyst is based on copper, cobalt and zirconium with the first two components being formed by co-precipitation in the presence of the oxide third component.
