Other recommended Texts: De Hoffmann, E. and Stroobant, V. "Mass Spectrometry: Principles and
Applications", 3rd Edition, Other course material
will be given in handout form throughout the semester. ________________________________________________________________________ Course Outline: This course aims to
increase the student’s general knowledge and understanding of the principles
and practices of modern mass spectrometry instrumentation and methods applied
to the structural elucidation of organic and biological molecules. Particular emphasis
will be placed on the development of a detailed understanding of the
underlying principles and operation of quadrupole and quadrupole ion trap
mass spectrometers, including their application in modern ‘hybrid’ mass
analyzer configurations. Prerequisites: It is assumed that
students have prior general knowledge of mass spectrometry, equivalent to
that covered in the mass spectrometry module of CEM 835, and in Chapter 11
and Chapter 20 of Skoog, Holler and Crouch,
