Moderne Massenspektronomie (Hardcover)

Alongside NMR spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy is not only one of the most important methods for analyzing the structures of organic substances, it has also become an integral part of qualitative and quantitative biological and environmental analysis.
This is the ideal guide for everyone looking to compare the various modern MS processes so as to apply the optimal technique. It presents all the relevant MS methods together with their theoretical and practical fundamentals in an easily comprehensible manner, from traditional right up to the latest processes, such as FT-ICR MS and laser MS. The lucid style of this practical manual will appeal to those approaching the subject for the first time; yet the author, active in mass spectroscopy for many years now, equally targets experts and specialists with numerous details and helpful tips on taking and analyzing MS images. A selection of example applications and an appendix with tables of the important matter data, conversion factors, fragmentation and spectra of common solvents and impurities all facilitate the practical use of this versatile method of analysis.
