OFFICIAL QUESTION:
2. What is it used for?
3. How frequently should it be used?
Our Geek of the Week answered:
Calibration valves. A calibration valve is an electromechanical valve with a vial to hold the tuning compound. When a calibration valve is opened, tuning compound in the vial diffuses into the ion source. EI MSDs have only one calibration valve, while CI MSDs have another calibration valve for the CI tuning compound. The valves are controlled by the MSD ChemStation. Perfluorotribuylamine PFTBA is the most common tuning compound.
[BLOGGER’S NOTE: Great answer. A quick tune or a full tune should be conducted before each run of the quadrupole MS. There were no honorable mentions this week. What’s up with that, y’all]
