Overall Performance

As the main body of the inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), quadrupole mass filter’s performance will largely affect the overall performance of the instrument. Its main performance parameters include the range of mass analysis resolution and the abundance sensitivity. In this article, we have analyzed simulated and then studied its several main performance parameters which affects the instrument.

Polyatomic Interferences

The suitability of inductively coupled plasma quadrupole mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for the determination of Cr and V in biofluids and tissues has been studied. High-pressure thermal and moderate-pressure microwave sample preparation with vapor-phase acid digestion successfully minimized blanks and carbon and chloride interferences. The remaining ArC+ interferences on 52Cr were corrected mathematically. Analysis of standard reference materials verified the accuracy of the method.

Pumping System

Performing mass spectrometry in a low-vacuum environment can markedly reduce the cost, size, and power consumption of instrumentation by reducing the workload of the pumping system. Under a low-vacuum environment, ions in a quadrupole mass filter do not have sufficient kinetic energy in the axial direction to reach the detector for mass analysis. To resolve this problem and develop a mass spectrometer suitable for a low-vacuum environment, a mass analysis method is proposed where a drift gas is used to supply energy to the ions. A simulation model was constructed in COMSOL Multiphysics, and a simple experimental device was built to validate the proposed method. The simulation results showed that this method effectively solves these problems, and the obtained spectral peak was superior to that without drift gas flow regarding spectral peak intensity and width. The experimental results showed that the proposed method separated ions with different mass-to-charge ratios at a pressure of 20 Pa. This work provides a theoretical foundation for the development of low-vacuum mass spectrometry, which will promote portability, provide a lower threshold of use, and expand the fields of application for mass spectrometers.

<p>The article demonstrates the importance of using a suitable approach to compensate for dead time relate count losses (a certain measurement artefact) whenever short, but potentially strong transient signals are to be analysed using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Findings strongly support the theory that inadequate time resolution, and therefore insufficient compensation for these count losses, is one of the main reasons for size underestimation observed when analysing inorganic nanoparticles using ICP-MS, a topic still controversially discussed.</p>
