Description : Shimazdu GCMS TQ8040 NX. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is an analytical technique that combines gas-chromatography (GC) and mass spectrometry (MS) to identify unknown substances or contaminants. Analysis begins with the gas chromatograph, where the sample is effectively vaporized into the gas phase and separated into its various components and these components reaches to Detector after passing through column. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a highly-sensitive detection technique that forms, separates and detects ions in the gaseous phase. When coupled to a GC, it immediately ionizes the gaseous eluted compounds, separates the ions in vacuum based on their mass-to- charge ratios (m/z) and eventually measures the intensity of each ion. These intensities are recorded to produce a series of mass spectra which displays the relative ion intensities against m/z. The eventual output of GCMS is the mass chromatogram.
