Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method and device to generate a chemical signature for a mixture of analytes. The present invention involves using a SPME surface to one or both absorb and adsorb the mixture of analytes. In an embodiment of the invention, the surface is then exposed to different temperature ionizing species chosen with appropriate spatial resolution to desorb a chemical signature for the mixture of analytes.

Claim (Index 20):
A method of analyzing a sample, the method comprising the steps:\n contacting a sorbent coated filament with a sample, where the sorbent coated filament is of sufficient size to permit multiple exposure of the sorbent coated filament to a plurality of different temperature gasses from a desorption ionization source; directing a carrier gas with a first temperature from the desorption ionization source at a first target area on the sorbent coated filament to generate a plurality of first sample ions; directing the carrier gas with a second temperature from the desorption ionization source at a second target area on the sorbent coated filament to generate a plurality of second sample ions; directing one or both the plurality of first sample ions and the plurality of second sample ions into an analysis instrument; and analyzing one or both the plurality of first sample ions and the plurality of second sample ions, thereby analyzing the sample.
