What will you learn on this course?
This module focuses on mass spectrometry principles, the reasons for use and the data generated. It includes the types of mass spectrometers available that are hyphenated to GC; their vacuum systems, ionisation techniques, mass filters and detectors.
Learning outcomes
- You will learn how mass spectrometers work and the data they generate.
- You will learn about the principles and components of the mass spectrometer.
- You will learn about the pros and cons of MS versus GC detectors.
Who is this course for?
If you have limited GC experience, wish to learn more or would like to brush-up on your knowledge about this particular section of the instrument then this is the module for you.
How does the virtual classroom training work?
You will be provided with a link to access the virtual classroom and the training course will be presented live at the scheduled time through video conferencing. You will have the opportunity to ask questions during the live course. If for any reason you miss the live broadcast, you will be provided with a one-time link to access a recording of the course and can submit any questions via email.
To gain the full knowledge of gas chromatography it is highly recommended to attend the full Complete GC & GC-MS course.
