710166Miniature Mass SpectrometerClosedGRD Proof of ConceptInnovate UKWe are proposing to build a minature mass spectrometer over 18 months. Mass spectrometry is central to a wide range of applications, including bioagent detection in the air, explosives detection, drug discovery and diagnostics. Our technology will deliver high performace mass measurement in a hand held device. It represents a quantum leap in technology development because it introduces a completely new concept of performing the mass analysis. This allows for extreme miniaturisation without compromising the performance.
