Kurzbeschreibung
Fundamentals of Contemporary Mass Spectrometry deftly explains mass spectrometry instrumentation and its application to analysis and identification of organic compounds, biological material, and inorganic compounds, as well as applications to quantitative analysis. The book is ideal for use as a textbook for graduate courses and is also a great reference for newcomers to mass spectrometry.
Modern mass spectrometry - the instrumentation and applications in diverse fields
Mass spectrometry has played a pivotal role in a variety of scientific disciplines. Today it is an integral part of proteomics and drug discovery process. Fundamentals of Contemporary Mass Spectrometry gives readers a concise and authoritative overview of modern mass spectrometry instrumentation, techniques, and applications, including the latest developments. After an introduction to the history of mass spectrometry and the basic underlying concepts, it covers:
*
Instrumentation, including modes of ionization, condensed phase ionization techniques, mass analysis and ion detection, tandem mass spectrometry, and hyphenated separation techniques
*
Organic and inorganic mass spectrometry
*
Biological mass spectrometry, including the analysis of proteins and peptides, oligosaccharides, lipids, oligonucleotides, and other biological materials
*
Applications to quantitative analysis
Based on proven teaching principles, each chapter is complete with a concise overview, highlighted key points, practice exercises, and references to additional resources. Hints and solutions to the exercises are provided in an appendix. To facilitate learning and improve problem-solving skills, several worked-out examples are included.
This is a great textbook for graduate students in chemistry, and a robust, practical resource for researchers and scientists, professors, laboratory managers, technicians, and others. It gives scientists in diverse disciplines a practical foundation in modern mass spectrometry.
