Modern mass spectrometry - the instrumentation and applicationsin diverse fields
Mass spectrometry has played a pivotal role in a variety ofscientific disciplines. Today it is an integral part of proteomicsand drug discovery process. Fundamentals of Contemporary MassSpectrometry gives readers a concise and authoritative overviewof modern mass spectrometry instrumentation, techniques, andapplications, including the latest developments. After anintroduction to the history of mass spectrometry and the basicunderlying concepts, it covers:
* Instrumentation, including modes of ionization, condensed phaseionization techniques, mass analysis and ion detection, tandem massspectrometry, and hyphenated separation techniques
* Organic and inorganic mass spectrometry
* Biological mass spectrometry, including the analysis ofproteins and peptides, oligosaccharides, lipids, oligonucleotides,and other biological materials
* Applications to quantitative analysis
Based on proven teaching principles, each chapter is completewith a concise overview, highlighted key points, practiceexercises, and references to additional resources. Hints andsolutions to the exercises are provided in an appendix. Tofacilitate learning and improve problem-solving skills, severalworked-out examples are included.
This is a great textbook for graduate students in chemistry, anda robust, practical resource for researchers and scientists,professors, laboratory managers, technicians, and others. It givesscientists in diverse disciplines a practical foundation in modernmass spectrometry.
