Evaluation of Fourier deconvolution ion mobility spectrometer as high-performance gas chromatography detector for the analysis of plant extract flavors.

The Fourier deconvolution ion mobility spectrometer (FDIMS) offers multiplexing and improves the resolving power and signal-to-noise ratio. To evaluate the FDIMS as a detector for gas chromatography for the analysis of complex samples, we connected a drift tube ion mobility spectrometer to a commercial gas chromatograph and compared the performance including resolving power, sensitivity, and linear range using 2,6-di‑tert-butylpyridine. Mixed standards were also injected into the tandem system to evaluate the performance under optimized conditions. A complex plant extract sample used as natural flavoring was investigated using the resulting system. The results show that the instrument implemented with the Fourier deconvolution multiplexing method demonstrated higher performance over the traditional signal averaging method including higher resolving power, better limit of detection, and wider linear range for a variety of compounds and natural plant extract flavorings.
