Mass Spectrometry
Second Edition

J. BARKER, University of Greenwich, UK


Bestseller!

The second edition of this successful ACOL text, which was first published in 1987, continues to provide the analyst with an excellent introduction to mass spectrometry by the adoption of a practical approach in which the theoretical and operational aspects of this major analytical technique are combined. In the revised edition, the author has expanded upon and reorganised the earlier material in order to bring it completely up to date.

In addition to the basic theory of ion formation and behaviour, instrumentation and the interpretation of the spectra of simple organic compounds, associated newer methods of interfacing such as electrospray and ionspray and particle-beam and continuous flow coupling are also covered. The current widespread use of computing techniques in structure elucidation is also considered, along with the important area of inorganic mass spectrometry for analysing surfaces, bulk solids and solutions.

A key text for all newcomers to the field of mass spectrometry in academia, industry and open learning.
