Title:
IN-PROCESS MASS SPECTROMETRY WITH SAMPLE MULTIPLEXING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006031842
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
In one embodiment, an in-process mass spectrometry (IPMS) system (100) is provided that includes: a plurality of sample mix modules (1,2,3,4,5), each sample mix module operable to select an extracted sample from a corresponding plurality of sample extraction modules, wherein each sample extraction module is operable to extract sample from a corresponding process solution bath having at least one analyte, each sample mix module being further operable to mix the selected extracted sample with a spike solution to form a mixture; a mass spectrometer (130) operable to process the mixture from each sample mix module to form a mass spectral response having a spike response (110, 115) and an analyte response; and at least one processor (120) operable to control the IPMS system.
