DART (Direct Analysis in Real Time) is a new method of atmospheric pressure ionization (positive or negative) that permits ionization of samples (powder, solution, tablet, oil, fluids solids) in open air without prior work up and chromatography. A mass spectrum of molecular ions and fragments in the sample together with their isotope patterns is obtained within seconds. See video for live demonstration . Detailed descriptions are available at www.jeolusa.com, www.ionsense.com or www.chemalys.com. The elemental composition and spectral accuracy of mass peaks are analyzed using MassWorks™ sCLIPS (www.cernobioscience.com).
