1.0 out of 5 stars
Poorly organized and unsuitable for a newcomer to mass spec,
By Sam T (California USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mass Spectrometry Basics (Hardcover)
This book might present a useful source of information for someone already well versed in the field of mass spectrometry but it would be of little help to a newcomer. The book covers a lot of specialist areas in whole chapters - plasmas, lasers, nebulisers - over many chapters and the remaining more commonly used tools in mass spectrometry are poorly organised. There are whole chapters on proprietory approaches like Z-spray, and other areas are misplaced in the text. CI for instance precedes EI, isotopes are not discussed until chapter 46, dual analyser hybrid instruments are discussed ahead of each of their components, eg. quadrupoles. Ch 40 on peptide MS is followed by one on EPA protocols, and a second on computers? Ch 45 covers an intro to biotechnology where the very peptides are defined? The authors acknowledge the text was more a series of articles than a book, but it leaves the reader with a muddled and incomplete coverage of mass spectrometry.
