Abstract:Chemometric techniques have been evaluated using full scan MIMS spectra with a series of VOC mixtures of known composition containing known compounds, and successfully applied to samples with known sources, but unknown molecular composition. These techniques have application to source identification and apportionment in real-world environmental samples impacted by atmospheric pollutants.
Full scan mass spectrometry data collected from a moving vehicle used to discriminate and map sources of volatile organic compounds using principal component analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
