Mass Spectrometry - Publ. on behalf of ACOL (University of Greenwich)

Diese Ausgabe wurde auf den neuesten Stand gebracht, um die, die mit der Anwendung oder dem Studium der Massenspektroskopie beginnen, zeitgemäß an das Thema heranzuführen. Der Autor deckt in den Kapiteln über Ionenquellen und Verfahren der Ionisierung, Massenanalyse, Ionennachweis und Fragmentierungsmuster die Grundlagen des Themas ab, schließt aber auch Kapitel über Tandem-Techniken (Gas- und Flüssigkeitschromatographie - Massenspektrometrie und Massenspektrometrie - Massenspektrometrie) und über atomare Massenspektrometrie einschließlich induktiv gekoppelter Plasma-Massenspektrometrie (ICPMS) ein. Wie bei allen Büchern der ACOL-Reihe sind Fragen zur Selbstüberprüfung und deren Lösungen enthalten.

Kurzbeschreibung:

The latest edition of a highly successful textbook, Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition provides students with a complete overview of the principles, theories and key applications of modern mass spectrometry. All instrumental aspects of mass spectrometry are clearly and concisely described: sources, analyzers and detectors.

Klappentext:

The latest edition of a highly successful textbook, Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition provides students with a complete overview of the principles, theories and key applications of modern mass spectrometry. All instrumental aspects of mass spectrometry are clearly and concisely described: sources, analysers and detectors. Tandem mass spectrometry is introduced early on and then developed in more detail in a later chapter. Emphasis is placed throughout the text on optimal utilisation conditions. Various fragmentation patterns are described together with analytical information that derives from the mass spectra. This new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated and has been redesigned to give the book a more contemporary look. As with previous editions it contains numerous examples, references and a series of exercises of increasing difficulty to encourage student understanding. Updates include: Increased coverage of MALDI and ESI, more detailed description of time of flight spectrometers, new material on isotope ratio mass spectrometry, and an expanded range of applications. Mass Spectrometry, Third Edition is an invaluable resource for all undergraduate and postgraduate students using this technique in departments of chemistry, biochemistry, medicine, pharmacology, agriculture, material science and food science. It is also of interest for researchers looking for an overview of the latest techniques and developments.
