Novel ionization reagent for the measurement of gas‐phase ammonia and amines using a stand‐alone atmospheric pressure gas chromatography (APGC) source

Abstract

Contaminants present in ambient air or in sampling lines can interfere with the target analysis through overlapping peaks or causing a high background. This study presents a positive outcome from the unexpected presence of N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone, released from a PALL HEPA filter, in the analysis of atmospherically relevant gas‐phase amines using chemical ionization mass spectrometry.
