Abstract
Mass spectrometry has long been useful in the identification and determination of the composition of mixtures, particularly those organic in nature. Techniques are now available to use a mass spectrometer directly as a detector for the components separated by a gas Chromatograph. Thus, an understanding of the basic principles of mass spectroscopy is essential for all analysts.
