Description : The Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS) is a highly sensitive and selective analytical instrument designed for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds. The system combines two powerful technologies: Gas Chromatography (GC): Utilizes a capillary column to separate complex mixtures of compounds based on their volatility and interaction with the column's stationary phase. The sample, injected into the GC inlet, is vaporized and carried by an inert gas (typically helium or nitrogen) through the column under controlled temperature programming. Mass Spectrometry (MS): The separated compounds exiting the GC column are ionized in the MS source, typically using Electron Ionization (EI) or Chemical Ionization (CI). The resulting ions are fragmented and sorted by their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) using a mass analyzer (e.g., quadrupole, ion trap, or time-of-flight). The generated mass spectra are used for compound identification and
