This course covers mass spectrometry fundamentals as well as the latest developments in the field, with emphasis on biological and biochemical applications. You will: learn strategic procedures followed by mass spectrometrists; improve the way you approach solving an analytical problem by mass spectrometry; learn about interfacing chromatographic procedures with mass spectrometry; and learn peripheral technologies required for mass spectrometry.
* Deciding the best techniques for you sample analysis.
* Detection of gaseous ions.
* Fragmentation of ions.
* Obtaining quantitative data from your sample.
* Separation of ions according to mass.
* Strengths and limitations of mass spectrometry.
Session titles
