1.1 Introduction
The dramatically increased demands on the qualitative and quantitative analysis of more complex samples are a huge challenge for modern instrumental analysis. For complex organic samples (e.g., body fluids, natural products or environmental samples), only chromatographic or electrophoretic separations followed by mass spectrometric detection meet these requirements. However, at the moment a tendency can be observed, in which a complex sample preparation and preseparation is replaced by high-resolution mass spectrometer with atmospheric pressure ion sources. However, numerous ion–molecule reactions in the ion source – especially in complex samples due to incomplete separation – are possible because the ionization in typical atmospheric pressure ion sources is nonspecific [1]. Thus, this approach often leads to ion suppression and artifact formation in the ion source, particularly in electrospray ionization (ESI) [2].
Nevertheless, sources such as ASAP (atmospheric pressure solids analysis probe), DART (direct analysis in real time), and DESI (desorption electrospray ionization) can often be successfully used. In ASAP, a hot nitrogen flow from an ESI or APCI (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization) source is used as a source of energy for evaporation and the only change to an APCI source is the installation of an insertion option to place the sample in the hot gas stream within the ion source [3]. This ion source allows a rapid analysis of volatile and semivolatile compounds and, for example, was used to analyze biological tissue [3], polymer additives [3], fungi and cells [4], and steroids, [3, 5]. ASAP has much in common with DART [6] and DESI [7]. The DART ion source produces a gas stream containing long-lived electronically excited atoms that can interact with the sample and, thus, desorption and subsequent ionization of the sample by Penning ionization [8] or proton transfer from protonated water clusters [6] is realized. The DART source is used for the direct analysis of solid and liquid samples. A great advantage of this source is the possibility to analyze compounds on surfaces such as illegal substances on dollar bills or fungicides on wheat [9]. Unlike ASAP and DART, the great advantage of DESI is that the volatility of the analyte is not a prerequisite for a successful analysis (same as in the classic ESI). DESI is most sensitive for polar and basic compounds and less sensitive for analytes with a low polarity [10]. These useful ion sources have a common drawback. All or almost all substances in the sample are present at the same time in the gas phase during the ionization in the ion source. The analysis of complex samples can therefore lead to ion suppression and artifact formation in the atmospheric pressure ion source due to ion–molecule reactions on the way to the MS inlet. For this reason, some ASAP applications are described in the literature with increasing temperature of the nitrogen gas [5, 11, 12]. DART analyzes with different helium temperatures [13] or with a helium temperature gradient [14] have been described in order to achieve a partial separation of the sample due to the different vapor pressures of the analyte. Related with DART and ASAP, the direct inlet sample APCI (DIP-APCI) from Scientific Instruments Manufacturer GmbH (SIM) was described 2012, which uses a temperature-push rod for direct intake of solid and liquid samples with subsequent chemical ionization at atmospheric pressure [15]. Figure 1.1 shows a DIP-APCI analysis of a saffron sample (solid, spice) without sample preparation with the saffron-specific biomarkers isophorone and safranal. As a detector, an Agilent Technologies 6538 UHD Accurate-Mass Q-TOF was used. The total ion chromatogramm (TIC) of the total analysis and the mass spectrum at the time of 2.7 min are shown in Figure 1.1a,b, respectively. The analysis was started at 40 °C and heated the sample at 1 K/s to a final temperature of 400 °C.
These ion sources may be useful and time saving but for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of complex samples a chromatographic or electrophoretic preseparation makes sense. In addition to the reduction of matrix effects, the comparison of the retention times also allows an analysis of isomers.
1.2 Ionization Methods at Atmospheric Pressure
In the last 10 years, several new ionization methods for atmospheric pressure (AP) mass spectrometers have been developed. Some of these are only available in some working groups. Therefore, only four commercially available ion sources will be presented in detail here.
The most common atmospheric pressure ionization (API) is electrospray ionisation (ESI), followed by APCI and APPI (atmospheric pressure photoionization). A significantly lower significance shows the APLI (atmospheric pressure laser ionization). However, this ion source is well suited for the analysis of aromatic compounds and, for example, the gold standard for PAH (polyaromatic hydrocarbons) analysis. This ranking reflects more or less the chemical properties of the analytes, which are determined with API MS: Most analytes from the pharmaceutical and life sciences are polar or even ionic and, thus, are efficiently ionized by ESI (Figure 1.2). However, there is also a considerable interest in API techniques for efficient ionization of less or nonpolar compounds. For the ionization of such substances ESI is less suitable.
1.2.1 Overview of API Methods
Ionization methods that operate at atmospheric pressure, such as atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and electrospray ionization (ESI), have greatly expanded the scope of mass spectrometry [17–20]. These API techniques allow an easy coupling of chromatographic separation systems, such as liquid chromatography (LC), to a mass spectrometer.
There is a fundamental difference between APCI and ESI ionization mechanism. In APCI, ionization of the analyte takes place in the gas phase after evaporation of the solvent. In ESI, the ionization takes place already in the liquid phase. In the ESI process, protonated or deprotonated molecular ions are usually formed from highly polar analytes. Fragmentation is rarely observed. However, for the ionization of less polar substances, APCI is preferably used. APCI is based on the reaction of analytes with primary ions, which are generated by corona discharge. But the ionization of nonpolar analytes is very low with both techniques.
For these classes of substances other methods have been developed, such as the coupling of ESI with an electrochemical cell [21–32], the “coordination ionspray” [32–47] or the “diss...
