Abstract:
The present invention comprises novel methods of continuously monitoring the performance of an atmospheric pressure ionization (API) system. The methods of the invention allow for improved quality monitoring of the processes that leads to the formation of ions at atmospheric pressure. The methods of the invention further allow for continuously monitoring for the quality of the ion formation process in API without the addition of extraneous material (such as labelled compounds or control known compounds) to the system being monitored.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 8 , wherein, if the measured ion current deviates more than about 5% from the reference ion current value, the operating parameters of the API system are changed such that the ion current for the charged species related to the cluster ion is within about 5% of the reference ion current value.
