October 29, 2008 – Peabody, Mass. – First it was pets, now it is babies who have died from ingesting food tainted with melamine. Detection of this chemical compound, which is being maliciously added to food products to make them appear to contain higher levels of protein, takes on a new urgency in a global... Read more
Introduction In a recently published comparison1 of the ambient ionization techniques direct analysis in real time (DART™ 2) and DESI3, it was reported that a protonated molecule was not observed for DART, whereas the protonated molecule could be observed for DESI and DAPCI. This is an incorrect observation, resulting from the use of different experimental... Read more
