Detection of analytes using porous mass spectrometry surface

The disclosure herein includes compositions and methods for ionizing targets and methods for making the compositions. In some embodiments, the compositions can include a porous substrate that has been etched for a desired average pore size, a desired porosity, or both for detection of one or more targets of interest. Also disclosed herein are methods for using the composition to ionize targets.

Porous membrane enabled mass spectrometry characterization of microfluidic devices

A system for sampling a liquid includes a sample fluid conduit including a membrane having pores. The membrane prevents the passage of the sample liquid through the pores at a first pressure of the sample liquid in the sample fluid conduit. A surface sampling capture probe has a distal end. The capture probe includes a solvent supply conduit and a solvent exhaust conduit. A solvent composition flowing at the distal end of the capture probe establishes a liquid junction with the membrane and establishes a second pressure within the liquid junction at the membrane. The second pressure is lower than the first pressure. Sample liquid will be drawn through the pores of the membrane by the second pressure at the liquid junction. A method for sampling a liquid and for performing chemical analysis on a liquid are also disclosed.
