摘要
A method for eliminating interference when analyzing a test sample of a bulk inert gas in an ion mobility spectrometer is disclosed which includes the steps of providing an ionization source for the spectrometer to form ions of the bulk inert gas, mixing a reagent gas with the test sample prior to entry into the spectrometer to alter the nature of the ions formed by the bulk inert gas to shift the location of a bulk inert gas mobility peak such that a bulk inert gas mobility peak does not overlap with an impurity mobility peak of the ions of a trace impurity of interest, whereby bulk inert gas ions are quenched and a clusters of the reagent gas and the bulk gas are formed. Alternatively, the reagent gas may be mixed with the drift gas in the ion mobility spectrometer, rather than with the test sample.
