Review
"...the book is written in a very clear form and is highly recommended not only for students on chemical instrumentation but also to scientists wishing to become acquainted on the technique and to teachers that will find several stimulating suggestions and examples." (Annali di Chimica, 1999)
"It is a valuable text reference for analytical chemists." (Bioseparation, 1999)
From the Publisher
Covers the basic theory of ion formation and behavior, the instrumentation for mass spectrometry, and the interpretation of the spectra of organic molecules. Describes also combined gas chromatography (mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography) mass spectrometry, which are among the most powerful techniques available to the analytical chemist. Text approaches mass spectrometry empirically, explaining the many useful techniques for the analysis and identification of organic molecules without requiring detailed theoretical knowledge of ion behavior. Presupposed on the reader's part is familiarity of basic organic chemistry.
