Virgen, Camila A.; Fox, James D.; Santariello, Peter; Winfield, Jaime L.; Wright, Kenneth C.; Verbeck, Guido F. published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《Portable membrane inlet mass spectrometric detection and analysis of chemical warfare agent simulants at the U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground S/K challenge event》, and you may find the article in International Journal of Mass Spectrometry.Product Details of 119-36-8 The information in the text is summarized as follows:
There has been a significant demand for the development and improvement of technol. used for the detection and identification of Chem. Warfare Agents (CWAs). Some of the current detection technol. being used by the U. S. government includes multipass gas cell coupled Fourier Transform IR (FTIR) spectroscopy and Lightweight Chem. Detectors (LCD) systems. While these systems possess adequate sensitivity to detect CWAs in general, their anal. times are not considered rapid nor are they able to identify the specific CWA. The U. S. Army Dugway Proving Grounds annual S/K Challenge event provides the opportunity to assess the performance and reliability of prospective detection instrumentation being developed by researchers worldwide to optimize their performance. To do so, trial testing of CWA simulants in both indoor and outdoor environments was performed, mimicking past attack scenarios. Membrane Inlet Mass Spectrometric (MIMS) technol. on a portable system was successful in performing a rapid anal. along with identification of each CWA simulant utilized during the trials. The MIMS system can detect and quantify low-mass permeable compounds with parts-per-trillion limits of detection. This allows for anal. to be achieved within seconds after the initial exposure time, which is significantly faster than the FTIR and LCD systems currently used. In the experimental materials used by the author, we found Methyl Salicylate(cas: 119-36-8Product Details of 119-36-8)
Methyl Salicylate(cas: 119-36-8) is a natural herbivore-induced plant volatile. It is a naturally occurring product in trees, legumes, exotic plants, vegetables, berries, and the primary constituent of the oil of wintergreen.Methyl Salicylate is produced from salicylic acid.Product Details of 119-36-8
