Course Objective

The course aims to provide an introduction to mass spectrometry techniques, to give a detailed presentation of mass spectrometry especially in terms of instrumentation and its applications in chemical analysis. Instrumentation, ion source technologies, mass analyzer technologies, magnetic sector time-of-flight, quadruple, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance analyzers and detector systems will be given. Tandem mass spectrometry techniques will be given into detail. GC-MS, LC-MS, MS-MS and ICP-MS techniques are the subjects of this course.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   This course is expected to help the students to provide an introduction to mass spectrometry techniques into detail in terms of instrumentation and theory, to make an assessment on analysis with mass spectroscopy
2   To develop the students analytical abilities and ability to criticize and solve problems regarding instrumental analysis with MS.
3   To give the students further information on tandem MS techniques.
4   Students are expected to know the analytical approaches exploiting MS techniques.
5   Students are expected to know and make assessment advantages and disadvantages of the existing MS techniques over each other.
