The
Finnigan MAT95ST High Resolution Mass Spectrometer (MS)
is equipped with a direct probe, gas chromatograph, electrospray
and microliquid chromatograph. These allow the analysis
of volatiles in EI and CI modes. Thermolabile compounds,
on the other hand are analyzed in ESI and ACPI modes. Tandem
MS-MS is performed with the ion-trap attachment. We have
analyzed a variety of samples by MS such as: natural products,
synthetic polymers, carbohydrate polymers, PCBs, VOCs, soil
organic matter, pesticides, surfactants, and others.
