Book Description
Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with supersonic molecular beams (SMB) (also named GC-MS with Cold EI) is based on GC and MS interface with a SMB and on the electron ionization (EI) of vibrationally cold analytes in the SMB (hence the name Cold EI) in a contact-free fly-through ion source. Cold EI improves all the central GC-MS performance aspects and brings a broad range of important benefits thereby leading the way to the future of GC-MS. Cold EI provides enhanced molecular ions combined with effective library-basedsample identification. Sample identification is further improved by the use of powerful TAMI software that is based on isotope abundance analysis and improved quadrupole mass accuracy for the provision of the sample elemental formula from its molecular ion group of isotopologues.
