Ionization Principles in Organic and Inorganic Mass Spectrometry March 2 -‐ 5, 2015, Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway INVITATION AND CALL FOR ABSTRACTS Ionization Principles in Organic and Inorganic Mass Spectrometry March 2 -‐ 5, 2015, Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway http://ipoims.com The Analytical Section of the Norwegian Chemical Society invites scientists and users of mass spectrometry to this first international conference on ionization principles in mass spectrometry. We sincerely hope that you will respond positively to this invitation and call for papers. Please inform your colleagues about this opportunity to share and discuss their recent experiences and to be scientifically updated. We look forward to your attendance at and participation in this scientific event. Objectives and Main Topics Mass spectrometry is, arguably the most important analytical spectrometric tool of modern times and the organic and inorganic mass spectrometry communities are probably the largest group of scientists working around a single tool. For both communities mass spectrometry concerns ion chemistry and physics with an emphasis on scientific instrumentation for mass separation. During the past several years, paralleling the growth of applications of the method, mass spectrometers have, however, become a kind of black boxes for many users even through a variety of new principles of ionization have been developed and made commercially available. This conference is meant to provide an international forum by which organic and inorganic mass spectrometry researchers and users have the opportunity to share their knowledge and exchange ideas on ionization principles in particular. Fundamental aspects and recent advances in creating ions by: Electrospray ionization (ESI), matrix-‐assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI), electron impact ionization (EI), chemical ionization (CI), atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI), surface-‐enhanced laser desorption ionization (SELDI), soft laser desorption ionization (SLD), laser-‐induced acoustic desorption (LIAD), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), ambient mass spectrometry (AMS) sources, inductively coupled plasma (ICP), glow discharge (GD), microwave induced plasma (MIP), field desorption, fast atom bombardment (FAB), thermospray ionization, proton-‐transfer reactor (PTR), thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS), resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS) and many more...

  • Characterization of a Glow Discharge Ion Source for the Mass Spectrometric Analysis of Organic Compounds
    Characterization of a Glow Discharge Ion Source for the Mass Spectrometric Analysis of Organic Compounds D. Carazzato and M. J. Bertrand Regional Center for Mass Spectrometry, Department of Chemistry, University of Montreal, Montreal, Canada A glow discharge ion source has been constructed for the mass spectrometric analysis of organic compounds. Characterization of the source has been made by studying the effect of pressure and discharge current on ionic distributions by anodic ion sampling along the discharge axis. Ion and electron densities and electronic temperatures have been calculated by using the single Langmuir probe technique to correlate the extraction efficiency with measured ion distributions and gain some insight into the ionization of organic molecules. The spectra obtained for several classes of organic compounds show that formation of parent-molecular ions by proton transfer, resulting partly from the background water molecules, is a major low energy process while charge transfer, Penning ionization, and electron ionization are probably responsible for the fragmentation observed. The spectra result from the simultaneous occurrence of high and low energy reactions, and their structural information content is very high, yielding both molecular and extensive fragment ion information. The glow discharge ion source has proved to be essentially maintenance-free, easy to operate, stable, and can be used at reasonable mass resolution (up to 7000). The source also provides picogram range detection limits and has a linear response range of about six orders of magnitude, which makes it an interesting ion source for routine analysis. Preliminary work conducted with chromatographic interfaces indicates that its use can be easily extended to both gas and liquid chromatography.

Received: 29 August 2020; Accepted: 21 September 2020; Published: 24 September 2020 Abstract: Contact glow discharge electrolysis (CGDE) can be exploited in environmental chemistry for the degradation of pollutants in wastewater. This study focuses on the employment of cheap materials (e.g., steel and tungsten) as electrodes for experiments of CGDE conducted in electrochemical cells with variable electrolytic composition. A clear correlation between breakdown voltage (VB)/discharge (or midpoint) voltage (VD) and the conductivity of the electrolyte is shown. Regardless of the chemical nature of the ionogenic species (acid, base or salt), the higher the conductivity of the solution, the lower the applied potential required for the onset of the glow discharge. Concerning practical application, these salts could be added to poorly conductive wastewaters to increase their conductivity and thus reduce the ignition potential necessary for the development of the CGDE. Such an effect could render the process of chemical waste disposal from wastewaters more economical. Moreover, it is evidenced that both VB and VD are practically independent on the ratio anode area to cathode area if highly conductive solutions are employed.
