This book provides a description of mass spectrometry basics, applications and perspectives of the technique. All aspects of mass spectrometry, including inorganic, organic, forensic, and biological MS are included in the book. The book contains a list of key terms for easier and faster understanding of the material. The mass spectrometry language and terminology associated with this technique is rather specific. Therefore, comprehensive explanation of the terms would be necessary for the beginners in the field.
The book also states, whenever necessary, that mass spectrometry alone is not a universal tool and such analysis, though very powerful and accurate, should be used in conjunction with other techniques such as NMR, pharmacological tests, structural identification, molecular biology, in order to reveal the true function of the identified molecule. This is crucial for young researchers to fully understand both the power of mass spectrometry and the importance of other complementary methodologies. The text is accompanied by test questions as a help for lecturers.
