Abstract

Analytical technologies including infrared, Raman, and X-ray fluorescence have seeing increasing in-field application over the last 15 years due primarily to advances in miniaturization and on-board embedded analytics focused on giving actionable answers to non-scientist operators. Though a long-time favorite in the analytical laboratory, mass spectrometry has taken longer to attain widespread field adoption largely due to challenges surrounding device portability. In the last few years, mass spectrometry has evolved to a truly handheld state and has continued to broaden its field capabilities and is now seeing significant in-field use as a result. In this presentation we will review state of the art in microscale ion trap systems and present test data from a variety of CBRNE relevant examples, including results generated using a sampling module designed to detect aerosolized threats
