Creating effective strategies for combatting smog starts with understanding how smog forms.🌍 We did a home study to demonstrate how SyftEnviro can be used to understand smog formation using the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) framework as laid out in 40CFR part 58. Our scientist Finlay Aitcheson identifies patterns in nitrogen dioxide caused by weekday peak hours, and differentiates between volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from forested areas and man-made VOCs from industrial activity using the integrated weather station data. SyftEnviro is robust, diverse, and can be integrated with mobile/stationary labs for exceptional environmental mapping. If you’re interested in minimising smog formation, and better understanding the mechanisms that cause it, have a quick read at this article, or get in touch! #SyftTechnologies #EnvironmentalMonitoring

About us
Syft Technologies designs and manufactures a revolutionary Mass Spectrometer (SIFT-MS) that enables detection of virtually all gaseous chemicals down to pptv in seconds. Customers include Baker Hughes, Samsung, Ford Motor Company, LG, SC Johnson and others who love Syft’s speed, ease of use, very low detection limits, low consumable costs and the ability to measure compounds that are difficult for other techniques: amines, sulphides, aldehydes and reactive species. This ground breaking technique emerged out of investigations of ion chemistry in the Earth’s atmosphere, and other planetary atmospheres, and was developed further at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. In 2002, Syft Technologies was formed, providing sufficient funding to take this academic research into a fully developed commercial solution. Now Syft instruments are sold throughout the world, in a wide range of applications as diverse as mud logging, to cutting-edge breath research. In all applications the unique attributes of Selected Ion Flow Tube Mass Spectrometry (SIFT-MS) have enabled our customers to measure significantly more than they thought was possible, resulting in a greater understanding of their products. Providing customer solutions is at the core of Syft Technologies. We employ a vibrant team of chemists, physicists, mathematicians, and engineers, who enable Syft to provide customized solutions for our customers. This is the reason why every Syft customer speaks so highly about Syft, and why most make repeat purchases. Contact us to find out more about Syft Technologies and how this innovative technology can help your business.

After the recent fires in the Los Angeles area, I began reflecting on how SIFT-MS could help measure the toxic VOCs left behind in both the air and soil. While we have a general understanding of the VOCs generated by wildfires, the unprecedented destruction to homes and man-made materials presents a new challenge, and the long-term impacts remain poorly understood. Will my children be exposed to these toxins in the garden or on the playground? How long will these harmful substances persist? I connected with a group of concerned mothers in Pasadena and Altadena, who were living much closer to the affected areas. Some are still unable to return home until extensive remediation is completed. We spent days collecting air and soil samples from homes, parks, schools, and yards, hoping to provide these families with some peace of mind. In collaboration with a PhD student and the MIC Core Facility at UCLA, we analyzed dozens of samples to better understand the lingering effects of these devastating fires. The results confirmed our concerns regarding soil VOC levels and led to lasting friendships with like-minded families. Ultimately, I hope this work contributes to more effective remediation efforts and helps inform responses to future fires.

Wildfires don’t just destroy landscapes—they leave behind invisible threats in the air and soil. At UCLA’s Molecular Instrumentation Center (MIC), researchers are using SIFT-MS to detect and analyze toxic compounds released after wildfires in Los Angeles. By identifying harmful chemicals lingering in the environment, scientists can better understand wildfire pollution’s long-term effects on public health and safety. This research is crucial for improving environmental monitoring, guiding cleanup efforts, and protecting communities from exposure to dangerous contaminants. Their work helps protect public health by improving environmental monitoring and cleanup efforts. Read more: https://hubs.ly/Q038GZ520 #WildfireResearch #AirQualityMonitoring #EnvironmentalSolutions
