The technique has both [[qualitative]] and [[Quantitative analysis (chemistry)|quantitative]] uses. These include identifying unknown compounds, determining the [[isotope|isotopic]] composition of elements in a molecule, and determining the [[structure]] of a compound by observing its fragmentation. Other uses include quantifying the amount of a compound in a sample or studying the fundamentals of [[gas phase ion chemistry]] (the chemistry of ions and neutrals in a vacuum). MS is now in very common use in analytical laboratories that study physical, chemical, or biological properties of a great variety of compounds.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;

The technique has both [[qualitative]] and [[Quantitative analysis (chemistry)|quantitative]] uses. These include identifying unknown compounds, determining the [[isotope|isotopic]] composition of elements in a molecule, and determining the [[structure]] of a compound by observing its fragmentation. Other uses include quantifying the amount of a compound in a sample or studying the fundamentals of [[gas phase ion chemistry]] (the chemistry of ions and neutrals in a vacuum). MS is now in very common use in analytical laboratories that study physical, chemical, or biological properties of a great variety of compounds.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td colspan=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;

In 1886, [[Eugen Goldstein]] observed rays in [[gas discharge]]s under low pressure that traveled away from the anode and through channels in a perforated [[cathode]], opposite to the direction of negatively charged [[cathode rays]] (which travel from cathode to anode). Goldstein called these positively charged [[anode rays]] &quot;Kanalstrahlen&quot;; the standard translation of this term into English is &quot;[[canal rays]]&quot;.

Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry is a very high resolution technique in that masses can be determined with very high accuracy. Many applications of FTICR-MS use this mass accuracy to help determine the composition of molecules based on accurate mass. This is possible due to the [[mass defect]] of the elements. FT-ICR MS is able to achieve higher levels of resolution than other forms of mass spectrometry, in part, because a superconducting magnet is much more stable than rf voltage.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;Citation &lt;/span&gt;| doi = 10.1016/S1387-3806(99)00226-2 | title = Comparison and interconversion of the two most common frequency-to-mass calibration functions for Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry | year = 2000 | last1 = Shi | first1 = S | journal = International Journal of Mass Spectrometry | volume = 195-196 | pages = 591 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Another place that FTICR-MS is useful is in dealing with complex mixtures since the resolution (narrow peak width) allows the signals of two ions of similar mass to charge (''m/z'') to be detected as distinct ions.&amp;lt;ref name=&quot;pmid15694769&quot;&amp;gt;{{&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;Citation &lt;/span&gt;|author=Sleno L, Volmer DA, Marshall AG |title=Assigning product ions from complex MS/MS spectra: the importance of mass uncertainty and resolving power |journal=[[J.

FTICR-MS differs significantly from other [[mass spectrometry]] techniques in that the ions are not detected by hitting a detector such as an [[electron multiplier]] but only by passing near detection plates. Additionally the masses are not resolved in space or time as with other techniques but only by the cyclotron (rotational) frequency that each ion produces as it rotates in a magnetic field. Thus, the different ions are not detected in different places as with [[sector instrument]]s or at different times as with [[time-of-flight]] instruments but all ions are detected simultaneously over some given period of time. In FT-ICR MS, resolution can be improved by increasing the strength of the magnet (in teslas) and by increasing the magnets bore diameter.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;Citation &lt;/span&gt;| doi = 10.1016/S1387-3806(01)00588-7 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt;+&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#cfc;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;

FTICR-MS differs significantly from other [[mass spectrometry]] techniques in that the ions are not detected by hitting a detector such as an [[electron multiplier]] but only by passing near detection plates. Additionally the masses are not resolved in space or time as with other techniques but only by the cyclotron (rotational) frequency that each ion produces as it rotates in a magnetic field. Thus, the different ions are not detected in different places as with [[sector instrument]]s or at different times as with [[time-of-flight]] instruments but all ions are detected simultaneously over some given period of time. In FT-ICR MS, resolution can be improved by increasing the strength of the magnet (in teslas) and by increasing the magnets bore diameter &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;Marshall et al&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;, IJMS 215:59&lt;/span&gt;-&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;75, 2002 &lt;/span&gt;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;. &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt;+&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#cfc;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;

Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry is a very high resolution technique in that masses can be determined with very high accuracy. Many applications of FTICR-MS use this mass accuracy to help determine the composition of molecules based on accurate mass. This is possible due to the [[mass defect]] of the elements. FT-ICR MS is able to achieve higher levels of resolution than other forms of mass spectrometry, in part, because a superconducting magnet is much more stable than rf voltage &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt; see for discussion: Shi et al., IJMS 195/196: 591-598 (2000) &amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;. Another place that FTICR-MS is useful is in dealing with complex mixtures since the resolution (narrow peak width) allows the signals of two ions of similar mass to charge (m/z) to be detected as distinct ions &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&amp;lt;ref &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;name=&quot;pmid15694769&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;{{cite journal |author=&lt;/span&gt;Sleno &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;L&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;Volmer DA, Marshall AG |title=Assigning product ions from complex MS/MS spectra&lt;/span&gt;: &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;the importance of mass uncertainty and resolving power |journal=[[J.

In an EI ion source, electrons are produced through [[thermionic emission]] by heating a wire filament that has [[Current (electricity)|electric current]] running through it. The electrons are accelerated to 70 eV in the region between the filament and the entrance to the ion source block. The accelerated electrons are then concentrated into a beam by being attracted to the trap electrode. &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;A &lt;/span&gt;sample &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;vapour containing &lt;/span&gt;the neutral molecules is introduced to the ion source in a perpendicular direction to the e- beam. Upon interaction with the e- beam, the analyte molecules ionize to [[radical ion|radical cations]] which are then directed towards the mass analyzer by a repeller electrode. Due to the high energy electrons and the initial thermal distribution of the neutral molecules, the ionization process frequently causes cleavage reactions that give rise to fragment ions, which can convey structural information about the analyte. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt;+&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#cfc;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;

At low energies (around 20 [[Electronvolt|eV]]), the interactions between the electrons and the analyte molecules do not transfer enough energy to cause ionization. At around 70 eV, the [[Louis-Victor de Broglie|de Broglie]] [[wavelength]] of the electrons matches the length of typical bonds in organic molecules (about 0.14 nm) and energy transfer to organic analyte molecules is maximized, leading to the strongest possible ionization and fragmentation. Under these conditions, about 1 in 1000 analyte molecules in the source are ionized. At higher energies, the de Broglie wavelength of the electrons becomes smaller than the bond lengths in typical analytes; the molecules then become &quot;transparent&quot; to the electrons and ionization efficiency decreases.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#eee;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;The ionization efficiency and production of fragment ions depends strongly on the chemistry of the analyte and the [[energy]] of the electrons.

When standard [[bore]] (4.6 mm) columns are used the flow is often split ~10:1. This can be beneficial by allowing the use of other techniques in tandem such as MS and UV. However splitting the flow to UV will decrease the sensitivity of spectrophotometric detectors. The Mass Spec on the other hand will give improved sensitivity at flow rates of 200 μL/min or less. This is because the analyte ions &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;have to &lt;/span&gt;be vaporised (nebulized) in order to become charged. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt;+&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#cfc;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;

A major difference between traditional [[HPLC]] and the [[chromatography]] used in LC-MS is that in the latter case the scale is usually much smaller, both with respect to the internal diameter of the column and even more so with respect to flow rate since it scales as the square of the diameter. For a long time, 1 mm columns were typical for LC-MS work (as opposed to 4.6&amp;amp;nbsp;mm for HPLC). More recently 300&amp;amp;nbsp;µm and even 75&amp;amp;nbsp;µm capillary columns have become more prevalent. At the low end of these column diameters the flow rates approach 100&amp;amp;nbsp;nL/min and are generally used with [[nanospray]] sources.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/mas.1280130504 Capillary liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry, Kenneth B.

When collecting data in the full scan mode, a target range of mass fragments is determined and put into the instrument's method. An example of a typical broad range of mass fragments to monitor would be ''m/z'' 50 to ''m/z'' 400. The determination of what range to use is largely dictated by what one anticipates &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;in &lt;/span&gt;being in the sample while being cognizant of the solvent and other possible interferences. A MS should not be set to look for mass fragments too low or else one may detect air (found as ''m/z'' 28 due to nitrogen), carbon dioxide (''m/z'' 44) or other possible interferences. Additionally if one is to use a large scan range then sensitivity of the instrument is decreased due to performing fewer scans per second since each scan will have to detect a wide range of mass fragments. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt;+&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#cfc;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;

Samples are introduced to the column via an inlet. This inlet is typically injection through a septum. Once in the inlet, the heated chamber acts to &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;volatilise (vapourise) &lt;/span&gt;the sample. In a split system, a constant flow of carrier gas moves through the inlet. A portion of the carrier gas flow acts to transport the sample into the column. Another portion of the carrier gas flow gets directed to purge the inlet of any sample following injection (septum purge). Yet another portion of the flow is directed through the split vent in a set ratio known as the split ratio. In a splitless system, the advantage is that a larger amount of sample is introduced to the column. However, a split system is preferred when the detector is sensitive to trace amounts of analyte and there is concern about overloading the column. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot;&gt;+&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td style=&quot;background:#cfc;color:black;font-size:smaller;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;

The major advantage MS has is the use of tandem MS-MS. &lt;span style=&quot;color:red;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;&quot;&gt;You can program the &lt;/span&gt;detector to select certain ions to fragment. The process is essentially a selection technique, but is in fact more complex. The measured quantity is the sum of molecule fragments chosen by the operator. As long as there are no interferences or ion suppression, the LC separation can be quite quick.

Volatile [[acid]]s, [[base (chemistry)|bases]] or [[buffer (chemistry)|buffers]] are often added to this solution too. The analyte exists as an [[ion]] in solution either in its anion or cation form. Because like [[electric charge|charges]] repel, the liquid pushes itself out of the capillary and forms an [[Particulate|aerosol]], a mist of small droplets about 10 [[micro|&amp;amp;mu;m]] across. The aerosol is at least partially produced by a process involving the formation of a [[Taylor cone]] and a jet from the tip of this cone. An uncharged carrier gas such as [[nitrogen]] is sometimes used to help [[nebulizer|nebulize]] the liquid and to help [[evaporate]] the neutral solvent in the droplets. As the solvent evaporates, the analyte molecules are forced closer together, repel each other and break up the droplets. This process is called Coulombic fission because it is driven by repulsive [[Coulombic force]]s between charged molecules. The process repeats until the analyte is free of solvent and is a bare [[ion]].
