Development of Dipolar Proton Transfer Reaction Mass Spectrometer for Real-time Monitoring of Volatile Organic Compounds in Ambient Air

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in ambient air can participate in photochemical reactions, which lead to the generation of secondary pollutants such as ozone and aerosol. So real-time and accurate monitoring of atmospheric VOCs plays an important role in the study of the causes of air pollution. On the basis of proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) research, a novel dipolar proton transfer reaction mass spectrometer (DP-PTR-MS) for real-time and on-line monitoring of atmospheric VOCs was developed. Compared with conventional PTR-MS with one kind of reagent ion H₃O⁺, DP-PTR-MS had three kinds of reagent ions H₃O⁺, OH^?, (CH₃)₂COH⁺, which could be switched according to the actual detection need. So DP-PTR-MS can improve the qualitative ability and expand the detection range effectively. The reagent ion H₃O⁺ can be used for detecting VOCs whose proton affinities are greater than that of H₂O. The reagent ion OH^? can be used to identify VOCs cooperating with the reagent ion H₃O⁺, and can also be used for detecting some inorganic substances such as CO₂. The reagent ion (CH₃)₂COH⁺ can be used for accurately detecting NH₃ under interference elimination circumstances. The limit of detection (LOD) and sensitivity of DP-PTR-MS were measured by using six kinds of standard gases. The results showed that the LOD for detecting toluene was 7 × 10^?12 (V/V) and the sensitivity for detecting ammonia reached 126 cps/10^?9 (V/V). The ambient air in Hefei city was on-line and real-time monitored for continuous 78 h with DP-PTR-MS. The results showed that the newly developed DP-PTR-MS could be used for long-term and real-time monitoring atmospheric VOCs at the concentration of 10^?12 (V/V) level. DP-PTR-MS is an important tool to the study of the causes of atmospheric pollution and the monitoring of trace VOCs emissions.

Volatile Organic Compound Fragmentation in the Afterglow of Pulsed Glow Discharge in Ambient Air

Glow discharge (GD) source gained an increased level of attention in relation to the analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) since past work showed that this soft ionization method allowed direct analysis of VOCs with minimal fragmentation, however, the issue of fragmentation was not previously studied in detail. The aim of the present work was to investigate the effect of discharge conditions on VOC fragmentation in the system consisting of the cell with pulsed glow discharge and a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Ionization of VOCs of different classes (hydrocarbons, alcohols, esters, and carboxylic acids) was investigated. A copper cathode with flat geometry was used. VOCs were ionized in the afterglow of short pulse glow discharge in the air. The use of discharge afterglow significantly reduces or eliminates the effects of ionization mechanisms other than Penning process, in particular, electron ionization. This significantly reduced VOC fragmentation and provided rather low limits of detection. Specific cluster formation was observed for alcohols and esters, which may facilitate their identification.

Separation of Ions from Volatile Organic Compounds Using High-Field Asymmetric Waveform Ion Mobility Spectrometry-Mass Spectrometer

A combination of high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) with mass spectrometer (MS) was analyzed. FAIMS separates ions from the volatile organic compounds in the gas-phase as an ion-filter for MS. The sample ions were created at ambient pressure by ion source, which was equipped with a 10.6 eV UV discharge lamp (λ=116.5 nm).The drift tube of FAIMS is composed of two parallel planar electrodes and the dimension is 10 mm×8 mm×0.5 mm. FAIMS was investigated when driven by the high-filed rectangular asymmetric waveform with the peak-to-peak voltage of 1.36 kV at the frequency of 1 MHz and the duty cycle of 30%. The acetone, the butanone, and their mixture were adopted to characterize the FAIMS-MS. The mass spectra obtained from MS illustrate that there are ion-molecular reactions between the ions and the sample neutral molecular. And the proton transfer behavior in the mixture of the acetone and the butanone is also observed.With the compensation voltage tuned from -30 V to 10 V with a step size of 0.1 V, the ion pre-separation before MS is realized.

Discrimination of Lung Cancer Related Volatile Organic Compounds with a Colorimetric Sensor Array

A simple and rapid discrimination of four lung cancer related volatile organic compounds (VOCs) was achieved with a novel colorimetric sensor array. Based on the cross-responsive mechanism, the sensor system exhibited high sensitivity to selected lung cancer biomarkers, including p-xylene, styrene, isoprene, and hexanal with concentrations varying from 50 ppb to 500 ppb. By extracting color information, it provided good selectivity and fine discrimination of selected gases via pattern recognition with Fisher linear discriminant (FLD). Additionally, with the employment of the Takagi-Sogeno Fuzzy Neural Network (TSFNN), different concentrations of selected VOCs were discriminated. It also suggested that the colorimetric sensor array proposed could not only distinguish different lung cancer related VOCs but also discriminate specific VOCs of different concentrations with an average rate of classification up to 95%. Our preliminary study demonstrated that the cross-responsive sensor array had infinite potential for further clinical and commercial use for early diagnosis of lung cancer.
