The Qualitative Analysis of an Antioxidant Additive Using the Full Capabilities of the EI/FI/FD Combination Ion Source
Introduction
JEOL has developed a unique EI/FI/FD combination ion source for the “AccuTOF GCv 4G”, a high-
resolution GC-time-of-flight (TOF) MS system. This unique ion source provides the capabilities of GC/EI, GC/FI and FD measurements without having to break vacuum in order to switch between each ionization mode. Additionally, this combination is particularly powerful in that it provides library searchable fragmentation information by using EI and high mass accuracy molecular ion information by using FI and FD. In this work, we measured an antioxidant additive by using each ionization mode available on the AccuTOF GCv 4G combination ion source (EI/FI/FD).
