Ambient Ionization

Ambient ionization is a mass spectrometry technique that enables direct analysis of samples in their native state without extensive preparation. It operates under atmospheric conditions, allowing for real-time detection of compounds in diverse applications such as pharmaceuticals, forensics, food safety, and environmental monitoring. Techniques like DESI (Desorption Electrospray Ionization) and DART (Direct Analysis in Real Time) are commonly used to ionize molecules from surfaces, liquids, or gases with minimal interference. Ambient ionization enhances speed, sensitivity, and efficiency in chemical analysis, making it a powerful tool for rapid and accurate identification of substances across multiple scientific disciplines.
