  1. Direct Analysis in Real Time“DART-MS”Application of Ambient Pressure Desorption Ionization Technology in the Natural Products, Food, and Pharmaceuticals ResearchBrian Musselman, Ph.D., IonSense, Inc., Saugus, Massachusetts, USA

  2. What is DART? • DART is a non-contact surface sampling technique for desorption ionization mass spectrometry where samples are at atmospheric pressure. • DART can be used to analyze gases, liquid, solids and materials on surfaces. • Developed by J. Laramee and R. Cody at JEOL USA, Inc. • Commercialized by JEOL and IonSense Inc.

  3. DART Schematic • Gas flows through DART • Electrical discharge creates a plasma • Lenses remove charged particles • Grid prevents ion-ion recombination at exit, and other functions • No exposed high voltages • Operated at ambient pressure in open air

  4. Operating Principle • Excited-state Helium atoms or nitrogen molecules interact with sample and atmosphere • Different results can be obtained by using different types of mass spectrometers including TOF, ion trap, quadrupole, and triple quadrupole as well as various hybrid mass spectrometers

  5. Basics: The Ionization ProcessPenning Ionization • Metastable atoms or molecules react with analytes that posses ionization potentials less than the metastable energy, M*+ S  S+. + M + electron

  6. Proton Transfer He(23S) + H2O  H2O+• + He(11S) + electron H2O+• + H2O  H3O+ + OH• H3O+ + nH2O  [(H2O)nH]+ [(H2O)nH]+ + M  MH+ + nH2O • Metastable atoms react with atmospheric water to produce ionized water clusters • Dominant reaction mechanism when helium carrier used: He(23S) energy = 19.8 eV • Huge reaction cross section: 100 A2

  7. Ionized Water Clusters [(H2O)nH]+ Produced by DART (He carrier) in Room Air

  8. Negative Ion Formation • Electrons produced by direct or surface Penning ionization are rapidly thermalized • Thermal electrons react with atmospheric oxygen and water to produce ionized clusters • Oxygen/water cluster ions react with analyte molecules to produce analyte ions

  9. Negative Ions Produced by DART from Room Air Note the absence of nitrogen oxide ions that would be produced by electrical discharge in air.

DOP Ritalin Triethanolamine Cocaine 100 200 300 400 500 600 m/z US One-Dollar Bill • Triethanolamine is a pH-adjuster used in cosmetics • All labeled compounds are detected as MH+ and confirmed by exact mass. • Common on bills: sunscreen, DEET, nicotine, glycerol and polyglycols (from printing process?)

  12. Simple Mass Spectra Make it Easier to Analyze Unknowns • DART never forms sodium or potassium adducts: • No [M+Na]+ or [M+K]+ • DART never forms multiple-charge ions • Solvent clustering and analyte clustering are less likely than in ESI

  14. Deploying DART • Everyone wants to knows what’s is in their sample • Most methods require significant sample prep to get answers… • DART simplifies the process by generating simple MS data.

  15. Conventional Technology • You can test every components every step of the way • After each step… • Making new methods… • Trying to figure out what you already know… • So you can spend a lot of money, or…

  16. Formulated ProductsUtilize Thermal Desorption Technique • For small tablets you can subsequently load up to 10 tablets then analyze for content by DART-MS in under 2 minutes • Vary the carrier gas temperature to thermally profile the product • Small tablets are held it place by a spring loaded plate pushing the tablets against a template • Large tablets can simply be placed in the tablet tray

  17. DART-SVP with Angle • Insert the Tablet Carrier onto the ET (Experiment Table) • Vary the carrier gas temperature while scanning across the surface to thermally desorb layer after layer of product • Operation at up to 45 degree angle for efficient desorption
