SIFT-MS Sample Delivery

As an analytical technique that only analyzes gas-phase samples, and can do so continuously, the approach to sample introduction for SIFT-MS differs considerably from GC and LC. This module describes the general principles of SIFT-MS sample introduction, then discusses approaches for conducting continuous, real-time sample analysis and analysis of samples from a variety of sampling media.

Topics include:

• General principles and direct analysis
• Coupling with 'xyz' robotic autosamplers
