Real-Time Measurement of EPA Regulated HON Compounds and Environmental Pollutants Using SIFT-MS

Method detection limits (MDLs) have been determined for the newly regulated HON (Hazardous Organic NESHAP (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants)) compounds, which validate selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) as an effective solution for measuring these toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other environmental pollutants in ambient air, whether at the fenceline or in a mobile setting. SIFT-MS offers unparalleled speed, sensitivity and ease of use for environmental monitoring applications.

Real-Time Analysis of Volatile Emissions by Coupling SIFT-MS with Thermogravimetric Analysis

The production of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) by thermal-based manufacturing methods such as hot-melt extrusion (HME) shows remarkable success at increasing the efficacy of poorly-soluble drugs. This work presents a novel approach by coupling selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) for real-time monitoring of volatile compounds released during exposure to heat. This combination of techniques has enabled the identification and quantification of trace volatiles at much lower temperatures than has been previously possible.
