“…However, several analytical techniques have recently been developed in order to better advance our understanding on their chemistry. Techniques that are capable of measuring sub-30 nm particles include the Volatile Aerosol Component Analyzer (VACA) (Curtius et al, 1998), thermal desorption-chemical ionization mass spectrometry (TD-CIMS) (Voisin et al, 2003), the Nano Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (NAMS) (Wang et al, 2006), the aerosol timeof-flight mass spectrometer (Laitinen et al, 2009), the inlet for the size-resolved collection of aerosols (Phares and Collier, 2010), the Chemical Analyzer for Charged Ultrafine Particles (CAChUP) (Gonser and Held, 2013), electrostatic precipitation-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (EP-ESI-MS) (He et al, 2015), droplet-assisted inlet ionization (DAII) (Horan et al, 2017), and online aerosol chemical characterization by the extractive electrospray ionization-ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometer (EESI-Orbitrap) (Lee et al, 2020). Single-particle analysis by mass spectrometry methods based on aerodynamics, light scattering, and laser desorption ionization are suitable for particles with larger sizes.…”
