Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention generally relates to systems and methods for mass spectrometry analysis of microorganisms in samples.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for analyzing an analyte in a sample, the system comprising: a capture module, the module configured to capture an analyte from a sample in an ambient environment and generate ions of the analyte, wherein the capture module comprises a cartridge and a porous substrate within the cartridge that is connected to a voltage source, wherein the porous substrate further comprises an internal standard; and a mass analyzer operably coupled to the capture module to receive the generated ions of the analyte and the internal standard. 2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the porous substrate is discrete from a flow of solvent. 3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the porous substrate tapers to a distal tip. 4. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the capture module further comprises a gas-flow generating device that directs flow of the gas through the porous substrate. 5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the porous substrate is filter paper. 6. The system according to claim 5 , wherein the filter paper tapers to a distal tip.
