Abstract:
An ionising apparatus for ionising a sample of gaseous fluid. The ionising apparatus comprises an ioniser configured to provide reactant ions; an ion modifier configured to modify the reactant ions, and a reaction region arranged to receive the modified reactant ions and a sample and to combine the sample with the modified reactant ions to ionise the sample for analysis by a detector configured to identify a substance of interest in the sample.

Claim (Index 22):
A calibration method comprising:\n providing a flow of dopant through a reactant ion producing region of an ionising apparatus for ionising a sample of gaseous fluid; ionising the dopant to provide reactant ions; operating an ion modifier to modify the reactant ions, wherein the ion modifier is arranged between the reactant ion producing region and a reaction region of the ionising apparatus; determining whether unwanted ions are obtained from the ion modifier; adjusting the flow of dopant, based on the determination that unwanted ions are obtained, to reduce the production of unwanted ions.
