Book description
Updated and expanded, the classic guide to GC/MS helps chromatographers
quickly learn to use this technique for analyzing and identifying
compounds. After explaining the fundamentals, it discusses optimizing,
tuning, using, and maintaining GC/MS equipment; explores advances in
miniaturized and field-portable GC/MS systems and microfluidic
components; and more. Complete with a CD-ROM, it covers applications in
the environmental laboratory and in forensics, toxicology, and space
science. This is the premier resource for professionals in those fields
and for students.
