The needle-Flowing Atmospheric Pressure Afterglow (n-FAPA) is a miniaturized plasma device with Ambient Desorption/Ionization capabilities. It is generated in flowing He using two concentric electrodes: a stainless steel capillary tube (outer electrode), and a hypodermic needle with a bevel-cut edge (inner electrode).

A nanostructured copolymer coating consisting of PPy doped with Naf was electrochemically synthesized on the inner surface of a stainless steel capillary tube. It was utilized to extract trace pollutants from water samples.

Sampling factors that could affect gas chromatograph (GC) response for volatile analysis such as syringe pumping time, injection volume, needle length, temperature, and the type of volatile were investigated. Capillary GC column segments (steel and glass) were installed in gas-tight syringes and used as needles for volatile analysis. Standard stainless-steel needles were also used. Hexylacetate, ethyl-2-methylbutyrate, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and butanol standard were measured. The number of pumps required to maximize GC response for each needle–volatile combination was determined. Maximal GC response for hexylacetate using standard stainless steel, capillary glass, and capillary steel needles required 10, 20 and 30 pumps, respectively. However, for butanol measurement, the optimal syringe pump number was 5 to 10 for all needle types. The use of a capillary needle resulted in an increase in GC response in the range of 3- to 15-fold relative to a standard stainless steel needle. Injection volume affected GC response in a needle-and volatile-dependent manner. In no case did injection volume vs. GC response extrapolate through origin. The GC response for capillary column needles increased as temperature decreased. Capillary column needles may be useful tools for analysis of volatiles that readily partition into the column coating.

A highly sensitive photoacoustic (PA) microcavity gas sensor for leak detection is proposed. The miniature and low-cost gas sensor mainly consisted of a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) microphone and a stainless-steel capillary with two small holes opened on the side wall. Different from traditional PA sensors, the designed low-power sensor had no gas valves and pumps. Gas could diffuse into the stainless-steel PA microcavity from two holes. The volume of the cavity in the sensor was only 7.9 μL. We use a 1650.96 nm distributed feedback (DFB) laser and the second-harmonic wavelength modulation spectroscopy (2f-WMS) method to measure PA signals. The measurement result of diffused methane (CH4) gas shows a response time of 5.8 s and a recovery time of 5.2 s. The detection limit was achieved at 1.7 ppm with a 1-s lock-in integral time. In addition, the calculated normalized noise equivalent absorption (NNEA) coefficient was 1.2 × 10−8 W·cm−1·Hz−1/2. The designed PA microcavity sensor can be used for the early warning of gas leakage.

Use of a continuous microflow submerged microcoil (CSMC) apparatus was compared with the capillary tube (CT) method for measuring the thermal inactivation kinetics of Pseudomonas fluorescens at 61°C for 3 to 29 s. Inocula were continuously pumped through a microbore (≤0.0762 cm inside diameter) thin-walled stainless steel capillary tube submerged in a heated oil bath. The heating time was set by changing the flow rate, tube dimensions, or both. With the use of microthermo-couples, the time for the inocula to reach within 1°C of the set temperature was <3 s, and shorter than that with capillary tubes or vials. Inactivation curves (61°C) for P. fluorescens prepared by the CSMC method were not different from curves prepared by the CT method, as determined by analysis of variance (P > 0.05). Inactivation of Bacillus cereus spores (105°C) and native microflora found in raw milk (72°C) over heating times of 3 to 42 s were determined by CSMC. CSMC can measure thermal inactivation kinetics of microorganisms efficiently and simply at high temperatures and in short times. Survivors can be enumerated in 1-ml volumes of heat-treated samples, making it useful for determining inactivation kinetics of low numbers of microorganisms, such as those found in high-quality raw milk. Inactivation kinetics were generally more accurately described by the Weibull function (R2 ≥ 0.97) than the linear kinetic model.
