Patent CA-2345683-A1 (CA)
Title: Vortex gas flow interface for electrospray mass spectrometry
Inventor: YEE PETER P
IPC: G01N1/00
Filed: 1999-09-27
Abstract: An apparatus for efficiently removing a carrier liquid from charged liquid drops formed by electrospray ionization prior to introduction of the drops into a mass spectrometer (209). A central capillary tube (210) connects a region of the low pressure vacuum system containing the mass spectrometer (209) with a region at substantially atmospheric pressure, in which ion formation is produced by electrospray ionization. Heated, drying gas flows through a plurality of vortex forming channels (214) symmetrically disposed about the axis of the central capillary tube (210) which provides an entrance to the spectrometer (209). Gas exiting the vortex forming channels (214) enters tangentially to the inside of a vortex drying tube (222) with a small helix angle, causing the gas to swirl around the tube, forming a vortex. The vortex drying gas flows in a direction that is substantially transverse to the axis of the entrance capillary into the mass spectrometer (209). The vortex gas intersects the electrospray, separating undesired large drops from smaller drops by a vortex gas flow which imparts a centrifugal force to the drops. The largest drops are driven to the wall of the drying tube (222) and caused to fragment into smaller drops by evaporation and collision with the wall (222).

In this invention the biological objects, for example seed, plants, mushrooms, eggs, spawn, yeast, soil, and also a water are activated by means of transformation of the luminous energy to the mechanical energy of the oscillations of the object's molecules by the use of resonance between the natural frequency of the oscillations of the object's molecules and the slip frequency of the interference flats which are generated, at least, by the two monochromatic coherent light beams.      The present apparatus is tuned to the resonance between the natural frequency of the oscillations of the object's molecules and the slip frequency of the interference flats in automatic conditions.      As a result of the present method the harvest and the quality of agricultural products are improved, the time of ripening is curtailed, the land cultivation is economized, the use of nitric fertilizers and chemical weed-killers and pest-killers are lowered, the ecology is made better.
