Embodiments described herein relate to improved devices and techniques for measuring the charge carried by analyte particles. The charge may be measured in a way that does not destroy the analyte, so that the analyte remains available for further analysis. The charged analyte particles may pass through (or by) an electrode. In doing so, they induce a counter charge on that electrode which can be detected electronically. Subsequent to their passage through that electrode, the particles can be collected on a substrate or may pass in real-time into a mass spectrometer. In some embodiments, both conventional destructive detection and nondestructive detection may both be present in an improved charged aerosol detector and the stream of charged particles may be directed to one or the other by a suitable redirector. Embodiments may be combined with light scattering analysis to provide further non-destructive analysis. Various combinations of these improvements are also described.

The present disclosure discusses a method of separating a sample (e.g., pharmaceutical drug, genotoxic impurity, biomarker, and/or biological metabolite) including coating a metallic flow path of a chromatographic system; injecting the sample into the chromatographic system; flowing the sample through the chromatographic system; separating the sample; and analyzing the separated sample using mass spectroscopy. In some examples, the coating applied to the surfaces defining the flow path is non-binding with respect to the sample—and the separated sample. Consequently, the sample does not bind to the low-binding surface of the coating of the flow path. The applied coating can increase the chromatographic peak area for the sample of the chromatographic system.

The present disclosure discusses a method of separating a sample including oligonucleotides including coating a flow path of a chromatographic system; injecting the sample comprising oligonucleotides into the chromatographic system; flowing the sample through the chromatographic system; and separating the oligonucleotides. In some examples, the coating of the flow path is non-binding with respect to the analyte, such as oligonucleotides. Consequently, the analyte does not bind to the coating of the flow path. The non-binding coating eliminates the need for passivation, which can eliminate the formerly needed time to passivate as well. In addition, analyte can be recovered with a first injection in a system, such as chromatographic system.
