Various organic reactions, including important synthetic reactions involving C–C, C–N, and
C–O bond formation as well as reactions of biomolecules, are accelerated when the …

Applying a high voltage to a liquid passing through a capillary disintegrates the liquid
meniscus to generate a fine spray of charged droplets. As the droplets evaporate, polar …

The field of metabolomics has witnessed an exponential growth in the last decade driven by
important applications spanning a wide range of areas in the basic and life sciences and …

This review discusses advances in the field of ambient sampling/ionization mass
spectrometry (“ambient MS” for short) with a focus on mechanistic and instrumentation …

MS has evolved as a critical component in metabolomics, which seeks to answer biological
questions through large-scale qualitative and quantitative analyses of the metabolome. MS …

The emerging field of metabolomics, in which a large number of small-molecule metabolites
from body fluids or tissues are detected quantitatively in a single step, promises immense …

A low-temperature plasma (LTP) probe has been developed for ambient desorption
ionization. An ac electric field is used to induce a dielectric barrier discharge through use of …

Real-time, online measurements of atmospheric organic aerosol (OA) composition are an
essential tool for determining the emissions sources and physicochemical processes …

Ambient desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MS) allows for the direct analysis of
ordinary objects in the open atmosphere of the laboratory or in their natural environment …

We investigated the fusion of high-speed liquid droplets as a way to record the kinetics of
liquid-phase chemical reactions on the order of microseconds. Two streams of micrometer …
