This guide provides under one cover a wealth of practical information designed to enhance the effectiveness of the GC/MS user. Separation conditions for numerous compound types are provided along with those for derivatized and underivatized compounds. A section on how to interpret mass spectral data, extensive correlations of ion masses and neutral losses with possible structures, and examples of mass spectra are provided to further aid structure determination. Also included are basic information on instrumentation, ionization methods, and quantitation; tips on the operation of mass spectrometers; the best derivatization procedures for a variety of compound types; troubleshooting techniques; and a variety of other information helpful to the practicing user of GC/MS instrumentation. Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry is of immediate value to the novice as well as to the experienced GC/MS user who may not have the breadth of knowledge covered in this book. Booknews Incorporates practical information necessary for successful GC/MS operation into a single source, useable by the novice as well as the experienced GC/MS user. Included are a practical review of GC/MS technology, details of conditions for separating 29 specific compounds (the heart of the book), a section on using ions for determining unknown structures, and 12 appendices.

\ From the Publisher"The most distressing aspect of GC/MS: A Practical User's Guide is the similarity of its title to Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry: A Practical Guide by Kitson, Larsen, and McEwen.... The Kitson et al. book is very useful to the practicing GC/MS user; and, hopefully, potential readers will not be confused by this similarity in titles."\ --JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR MASS SPECTROSCOPY\ \ \ \ \ BooknewsIncorporates practical information necessary for successful GC/MS operation into a single source, useable by the novice as well as the experienced GC/MS user.
