On the use of TabPFN on mass spectrometry analysis of volatile organic compounds [PDF]
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are key markers in applications ranging from food quality assessment to medical diagnostics that can be profiled, for example, by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or by direct injection mass spectrometry (e.g.

Oxygenated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as significant but varied contributors to VOC emissions from vehicles [PDF]
Vehicular emissions are an important source for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in urban and downwind regions. In this study, we conducted a chassis dynamometer study to investigate VOC emissions from vehicles using gasoline, diesel, and liquefied ...

Selectivity Beyond Mass: Real-Time Isomer Separation Using SLIM IMS Coupled to PTR-MS. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Proton‐transfer‐reaction—mass spectrometry (PTR‐MS) provides real‐time analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) relevant to atmospheric research, food and flavor characterization, industrial process control, and medical applications. However, PTR‐MS is inherently limited in its ability to resolve isomers of molecules with the same mass‐to‐

Measurement report: Important contributions of oxygenated compounds to emissions and chemistry of volatile organic compounds in urban air [PDF]
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play important roles in the tropospheric atmosphere. In this study, VOCs were measured at an urban site in Guangzhou, one of the megacities in the Pearl River Delta (PRD), using a gas chromatograph–mass spectrometer ...
