Mass concentrations calculated from Aerodyne’s aerosol mass spectrometers depend on particle collection efficiency (CE) and relative ionization efficiency (RIE, relative to the primary calibrant ammonium nitrate). We present new laboratory RIE measurements for a wide range of organic aerosol species (RIEOA), with an average RIEOA = 1.6 ± 0.5 that is consistent with most ambient…

Comprehensive analysis of breath demands a detector that can simultaneously monitor compounds at concentrations ranging from ppt to ppm levels. The Vocus PTR-TOF did just that when our application scientist ate a cough drop in front of its inlet. View full article here: https://www.tofwerk.com/monitoring-human-breath-emissions-vocs-ptr-ms/

To characterize vertical concentration gradients Aerodyne has been using commercially available drones to loft gas sampling inlets. The DJI Matrice 600 is now routinely being deployed in our field measurement campaigns to suspend a 3/16″OD teflon sampling line to altitudes as high as 200 feet. Coupled with our fast response TILDAS instruments, vertical concentration gradients…
