Technical Note: Determination of formaldehyde mixing ratios in air with PTR-MS: laboratory experiments and field measurements
Formaldehyde (HCHO), the most abundant carbonyl compound in the atmosphere, is generated as an intermediate product in the oxidation of nonmethane hydrocarbons. Proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) has the capability to detect HCHO from ion signals at <i>m/z</i&am...
