Describe the different mass analysers used for Mass Spectrometry.
Answers
Mass spectrometry (MS) is an analytical technique that ionizes chemical species and sorts the ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio. In simpler terms, a mass spectrum measures the masses within a sample. Mass spectrometry is used in many different fields and is applied to pure samples as well as complex mixtures.

Types of Mass Spectrometry[edit]
- AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry)[edit]
- Gas Chromatography-MS[edit]
- Liquid Chromatography-MS[edit]
- ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass spectrometry )[edit]
- IRMS (Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry)[edit]
- Ion Mobility Spectrometry-MS[edit]
- MALDI-TOF
- SELDI-TOf
Basic Principle. A mass spectrometer generates multiple ions from the sample under investigation, it then separates them according to their specific mass-to-charge ratio (m/z), and then records the relative abundance of each ion type.
