PEER-REVIEWED ARTICLE
Fitting it Together
Chromatography connected with ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is not commonly used, but is being investigated more. IMS is an independent analytical technique with very good detectability and a rather small separation ability. One favourable property of IMS is that it can work with ambient pressure and can be easily connected to a gas chromatograph. Analytical applications of gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC–MS) are very different and encompass investigations into food, medical science, environment, drugs of abuse, chemical warfare agents, and explosives. This review article describes the results of studies connecting GC to IMS.
