  • SIFT-MS INSTRUMENT
    Publication number: 20110024614
    Abstract: A method of improving signal intensity of precursor ions constrained in a carrier gas in the flow tube of a SIFT-MS instrument, and an apparatus to carry out the method. The method applies an electrical potential to the flow tube to lower the diffusive loss of ions within the flow tube. The lowered diffusive loss of ions increases the sensitivity of the technique.

  • SIFT-MS instruments
    Patent number: 7429730
    Abstract: A SIFT or SIFDT apparatus in which the upstream quadrupole and the downstream quadrupole are housed within a single evacuated chamber with the upstream quadrupole being connected to the downstream quadrupole by a curved flow tube. In a preferred form the interior of the chamber is divided into sections by an electrostatic shield which shields the upstream quadrupole and source connection from the downstream quadrupole and detector.
