Abstract:
In various embodiments of the invention, a sorbent coated mesh or grid introduced into contact with a sample can be monitored at appropriate temperatures, positions and time intervals to determine species present in the sample. The monitoring utilizes reactive species produced from an atmospheric analyzer to ionize analyte molecules present on the sorbent coated mesh or grid which are then analyzed by an appropriate spectroscopy system. In an embodiment of the invention, a sorbent surface can be used to absorb, adsorb or condense analyte molecules from the sample whereafter the sorbent surface can be interrogated with the reactive species to generate analyte species characteristic of the sample.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for analyzing a sample comprising:\n a sample collection device comprising:\n a first tine with a first major axis adapted for insertion into a container; \n a first sorbent material applied to a first area of the first tine; and \n a second sorbent material applied to a second area of the first tine, where the first sorbent material is adapted to collect a first sample molecule present in the sample, where the second sorbent material is adapted to collect a second sample molecule present in the sample; \n a mesh in proximity with the first tine; a power source electrically connected to the mesh adapted to deliver at least a first current to the mesh; an ionization source directing ionizing species at the first area to generate a plurality of ions of the sample; and a spectrometer adapted to analyze the plurality of ions of the sample.
