ABSTRACT:
For treating a fluid sample for introduction to a mass spectrometer or other appropriate use, a composite membrane and support assembly allows analytes from a sample flow to permeate through a membrane free from the undesired background matrix. The composite membrane and support assembly comprises a semipermeable membrane, a fiber member for supporting the membrane, and a rigid perforated member for supporting the membrane and the fiber support.
