The influence of different types of reactant ions on the ionization behavior of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in corona discharge ion mobility spectrometry

Rationale Some polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are considered to be cancer‐causing chemicals, and ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is used for on‐site detection of such hazardous chemicals. In IMS, the ionization behavior of analytes is affected by the types of reactant ions (RIs). In the pre...
