In order to ensure that 15N2 atom% effectuated by Membrane Inlet Mass Spectrometry, we tested whether the mass-specific signal ratios returned by MIMS are equivalent with parallel measurements on a Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer, on the basis that the latter returns accurate ratios (see 778000 cal_iso). MIMS and IRMS returned identical values for parallel samples.
Comparison of MIMS to IRMS
