OH chemistry of non-methane organic gases (NMOGs) emitted from laboratory and ambient biomass burning smoke: evaluating the influence of furans and oxygenated aromatics on ozone and secondary NMOG formation [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019
Chamber oxidation experiments conducted at the Fire Sciences Laboratory in 2016 are evaluated to identify important chemical processes contributing to the hydroxy radical (OH) chemistry of biomass burning non-methane organic gases (NMOGs).

PTR‐ToF‐MS characterisation of roasted coffees (C. arabica) from different geographic origins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mass Spectrometry, 2014
Characterisation of coffees according to their origins is of utmost importance for commercial qualification. In this study, the aroma profiles of different batches of three monoorigin roasted Coffea arabica coffees (Brazil, Ethiopia and Guatemala) were analysed by Proton‐Transfer‐Reaction‐Time of Flight‐Mass Spectrometry (PTR‐ToF‐MS).

Field measurements of methylglyoxal using proton transfer reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometry and comparison to the DNPH–HPLC–UV method [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2018
Methylglyoxal (MGLY) is an important atmospheric α-dicarbonyl species for which photolysis acts as a significant source of peroxy radicals, contributing to the oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere and, as such, the formation of secondary pollutants ...

Detailed Speciation of Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds in Exhaust Emissions from Diesel and Gasoline Euro 5 Vehicles Using Online and Offline Measurements

open access: yesToxics, 2022
The characterization of vehicle exhaust emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is essential to estimate their impact on the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and, more generally, air quality.

EVOO or not EVOO? A new precise and simple analytical tool to discriminate extra virgin olive oils

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2017
International Olive Oil Council (IOOC) states chemical and organolep- tic parameters to classify the commercial grade of olive oil. Finding tools or analytical procedures able to support the organoleptic evaluation would be helpful to streamline and ...

Measurements of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) using PTR-MS: calibration, humidity dependence, inter-comparison and results from field studies in an oil and gas production region [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2014
Natural gas production is associated with emissions of several trace gases, some of them classified as air toxics. While volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have received much attention, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can also be of concern due to the known health
