EPA
"The IST software is capable of identifying low concentrations of target analytes in the presence of high levels of matrix interferences. By 'seeing through' the matrix interferences, the software reduces the need for re-analysis and dilution, and increases confidence in surrogate, internal standard, and target compound identification and quantification. IST accurately identifies and quantifies target compounds in the presence of high levels of interferences and with minimal chromatographic separation."
Innovations in Site Characterization, Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, EPA-542-R-98-006.

Hanscom Air Force Base
During a soil investigation project in Bedford, Massachusetts, Ion Signature Technology's software produced unmatched measurement selectivity without the need for extensive sample cleanup or long GC run-times. Compared to traditional analytical technologies, IST's software decreased the per-sample analysis time, thereby dramatically increasing the number of samples analyzed per day per instrument.

Battelle Memorial Institute
"The company's technology produces data of a quality equal to or better than the standard laboratory methods. The software represents a revolutionary advancement within the field of analytical science."

 
Joliet Ammunition Plant
Ion Signature Technology provided the Joliet Ammunition Plant with contaminant-specific identification and quantification as well as rapid sample turnaround and high sample throughput. In addition, the software reduced the per-sample analytical costs by 75% as compared to the cost of off-site laboratory analyses for explosives.
 
Tennessee Department of Agriculture
The Tennessee Department of Agriculture (TDA) uses GC/MS in their Food Residue Section. This Section provides testing services on agricultural inputs and outputs to support consumer protection, public safety, and a fair marketplace. Because complex samples always provide a unique challenge, chemists in the department are using Ion Signature quantitative deconvolution software in the GC/MS analysis of pesticides in milk.

According to TDA chemists, "The software was very intuitive and allowed us to carry out quantitation of the samples of interest. The software enabled us to clearly identify the target compounds, even when their peaks were hidden by coeluting compounds. Overall, the software allowed us to improve the selectivity, throughput, and sensitivity in the complex matrices which are typical for our laboratory."
