However, most of these methods are not suitable for organometallic/elementorganic samples, since inert application methods and soft ionization are usually necessary. In these cases, the liquid injection field desorption ionization mass spectrometry (LIFDI-MS) method has proven effective.

The solvent filter just slows this process down significantly and therefore needs regular maintenance itself to protect the reactor loading. The deterioration is due to the reaction of solvent molecules with the surface of the metal based getter material beads. This is especially true for halogenated solvents like dichloromethane.

Some newer systems come with a molecular sieve filter. These filters can be regenerated and do not need to be replaced. However, most glove boxes use a solvent filter filled with activated carbon. This filter must be replaced when it becomes saturated with solvent.
