Abstract:The objective of this work is to adapt ambient ionization mass spectrometry (AMS) techniques for the rapid analysis of intact uranium complexes, stable strontium, cerium, and explosive compounds. The methods used were "soft ionization" techniques, which facilitate the detection of whole molecule complexes. The soft ionization mass spectrometry (MS) techniques that were investigated include paper spray ionization (PSI), matrix-assisted ionization (MAI), electrospray ionization (ESI) and direct analysis in real … Show more
