Abstract
A system and method for identifying molecules. Molecules are identified from a gaseous matter having the molecules and flowing at two different flow rates. A system and method for identifying a substance. A particle which is indicative of a substance is identified from matter having the particle and flowing at two different flow rates. After the particle is identified, the substance is identified.
Claims18
A method for identifying molecules comprising:
- flowing at a first flow rate a gaseous matter having molecules;
- flowing at a second flow rate the gaseous matter having the molecules;
- and
- identifying the molecules.
A method for identifying a substance comprising:
- flowing at a first flow rate matter having at least one particle indicative of a substance;
- flowing at a second flow rate the matter having the at least one particle;
- identifying the particle;
- and
- identifying the substance from the identified particle.
An apparatus for identifying molecules comprising:
- a preparation assembly for preparing a medium for admixing with molecules;
- a mixing assembly for mixing molecules with the prepared medium;
- and
- an identifying assembly for identifying the molecules.
An apparatus for identifying molecules comprising:
- a processing system including a computer;
- a computer-readable medium including instructions executable by the computer comprising
- one or more instructions for setting a first flow rate of a gaseous matter having molecules;
- one or more instructions for setting a second flow rate of the gaseous matter having the molecules;
- and
- one or more instructions for identifying the molecules.
A computer-readable medium including instructions executable by a computer comprising:
- one or more instructions for setting a first flow rate of a gaseous matter having molecules;
- one or more instructions for setting a second flow rate of the gaseous matter having the molecules;
- and
- one or more instructions for identifying the molecules.
A method for creating a database for identifying molecules comprising preparing a mixture of gaseous matter having molecules;
- assigning a flow rate and concentration of molecules for the gaseous matter;
- sampling the gaseous matter at the assigned flow rate and concentration;
- obtaining an output result of a sensor for the sampled gaseous matter;
- and storing the output result in a database.
