Mass spectrometry (MS) is considered to be the gold standard in chemical detection due to the speed, selectivity, sensitivity, and versatility of the method. A miniaturized, linear ion trap, mass spectrometer can rapidly detect and unequivocally identify chemical targets that reduce the cost to analyze field samples and, more importantly, eliminate gaps in security because actionable information can be obtained on timescales that are relevant for security personnel
