Certain embodiments described herein are directed to rod assemblies such as, for example, quadrupole, hexapole and octupole rod assemblies. In some instances, the rod assemblies include at least one pole comprising an integral fluid path configured to fluidically couple an ion volume formed by the assembly to an outer volume of the assembly to remove fluid within the ion volume to the outer volume while containing ions of a selected mass-to-charge range. |
