Background
Chemical Warfare Agent Detection
Chemical warfare agents are an important target of domestic and international law enforcement because of the threat they pose to civilians. These chemicals, including phosgene, sarin, VX, tabun, sulfur mustard, and soman, are small, volatile, carbon-containing molecules that are detectable by several chemical ionization approaches as trace substances in air or as residue on surfaces.
Solutions
Real-Time CWA Detection Using the Vocus CI-TOF
- Highest sensitivity available with sub-ppt limits of detection
- High mass resolving power enables identification of individual compounds within complex mixtures with high accuracy.
- Real-time and fast data output capturing rapid changes in VOC concentrations and suitable for mobile monitoring
- Full spectrum acquisition allows measurements of wide range of compounds simultaneously
- Compact and easy to use method, which is inherently quantitative
