Abstract
In an embodiment of the present ambient ionization experiment, the abundance of background chemicals relative to ions of interest is decreased by reducing the overall abundance of background chemicals introduced into the ionizing region. In an embodiment of the present invention, the reduction of unwanted background chemicals in the ionization region can be effected by limiting the area which the sample volume is deposited. In an embodiment of the present invention, the reduction of unwanted background chemicals in the ionization region can be effected by decreasing the duration of time that the sample is exposed to the atmospheric pressure ionization source. In an embodiment of the present invention, the reduction of unwanted background chemicals in the ionization region can be effected by limiting the sample volume. In an embodiment of the present invention dilution of the sample with water can be used to reduce the contribution of the background chemicals. In an embodiment of the present ambient ionization experiment, an ion intensifier is used to suppress ionization of background chemicals to permit more efficient ionization and detection of the molecules of interest.
