Ultra-high-resolution Mass Spectra of Dissolved Organic Matter in the Absorption Mode by Rong QIN, Lun YANG, Qing-long FU

“…Moreover, the absorption mode is mainly favorable to the number of identified peaks for DBPs but has limited effects on decreasing the peak intensity deviation of DBPs peaks due to their low intensity at the environmental levels of chlorination reagents. The results highlight the great potential of the absorption mode technology based on FT-ICR MS for the non-targeted analysis of DOM and emerging pollutants, including DBPs.…”
