Awt. Bristow et al., DIRECT MATRIX-ASSISTED LASER DESORPTION IONIZATION QUADRUPOLE ION-TRAP MASS-SPECTROMETRY OF PESTICIDES ADSORBED ON SOLID-PHASE EXTRACTION MEMBRANES/, Analyst, 121(10), 1996, pp. 1425-1428
The direct determination of pesticides adsorbed on solid-phase extract
ion (SPE) membranes by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MA
LDI) combined with quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometry is reported.
Ionization was carried out in an external source followed by injection
of desorbed ions into the trap using an ion lens, Ion accumulation fr
om multiple desorption events and tandem mass spectrometric procedures
were used to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity of the analysis.
The potential of the method for quantitative analysis is discussed.
