Description:

Graduate course covering fundamental aspects and applications of Mass Spectrometry (MS). Quasi-equilibrium theory, isotope effects, and gas phase chemistry will serve to describe ion formation, excitation, and fragmentation. Methods of ionization (electron impact, electrospray, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization) and instrumentation (quadrupole, ion trap, time-of-flight, ion cyclotron resonance) will be introduced. Practical aspects regarding application of MS (sample preparation, gas chromatography, liquid chromatography) to biological mixtures and data analysis will also be discussed.
