Briefly, two samples of ambient aerosol were collected in the Pacific Northwest of the United States in 2017 which were heavily influenced by atmospheric tar balls. The acetonitrile soluble extracts of the aerosol filters were analyzed using ultrahigh resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometry (OTE-MS) using positive and negative modes of electrospray ionization as …
