KEY LEARNING OBJECTIVES
  • Understand when to use GC-MS analysis and what extra information the technique can provide
  • Appreciate the requirements for interfacing GC and MS systems
  • Understand vacuum systems and the relationship between vacuum and sensitivity of the technique
  • Understand the physio-chemical principles behind electron impact (EI) ionisation
  • Become familiar with the components of a typical EI ion source and discuss options to improve technique sensitivity using ion source settings
  • Explore the components and working principles of quadrupole mass analysers
  • Understand how ions are detected and amplified to produce a signal
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
  • Current or potential users of GC-MS and those wanting to improve their skills and understanding of this technique
