Description:

Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry: A Practical Guideis the second edition to the highly successful book of the same name, originally written by F.G. Kitson, B.S. Larsen, and C.N. McEwen (1996). Designed as a valuable resource to the GC/MS user, this book provides serves as a one-stop-shop covering updated practical instruction necessary for the successful operation of GC/MS equipment. Includes separation conditions for numerous compound types, instruction on how to interpret mass spectral data, extensive correlations of ion masses and neutral losses with possible structures, together with examples of mass spectra as a means aiding structure determination.
