SIFT-MS in Analytical Chemistry

Open University research fellow, Geraint Morgan, shares how SIFT-MS has enabled a wide range of analytic chemistry research in the physics department and planetary science studies. He opens up about how their Syft Tracer "opens up new ways of looking at samples" such as aldehydes and overcomes limitations of traditional methodologies in this Q&A session with Syft.

True Soft Chemical Ionization Through Ion Energy

Did you know that SIFT-MS has truly soft chemical ionization? Here, we provide evidence based on a sensitive measure of ion energy.

One of the ion-molecule reaction mechanisms utilized in SIFT-MS – association – is extremely sensitive to reagent ion energy. The association mechanism requires low reagent ion energies to occur because – as the name implies – the reagent ion and analyte molecule are “associated” in the detected product ion.

Behind the Scenes at Syft Technologies: Crafting Precision Instruments

Operations Manager, Jozef Knottenbelt, gives us an inside look at the production process for manufacturing Syft's instrumentation.

Advancements in Monitoring Toxic VOCs with SIFT-MS

Recent regulation updates issued by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON) compounds requires precise and reliable measurement of toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Syft Technologies has developed advanced methods for sampling and measuring these toxic VOCs in response. These 1-min methods meet the stringent requirements of the new rules, providing robust solutions for accurate and efficient monitoring.
