The GC portion of this system provides high resolution separation of volatile organic solutes in a mixture in the gas phase. As each solute exits the GC column, it is diverted into a mass spectrometer which is capable of both monitoring the amount of and identifying the chemical nature of the solute. In this way, both quantitative and qualitative information about the mixture can be obtained.
The MS portion of the system takes each gaseous solute exiting the GC and ionizes it in an electron beam. The ions formed by a specific solute will depend on the nature of the bonds in the molecule, and both ionized molecules and ion fragments of the molecule are possible. The ions are then directed down a separator which isolates and counts the ions according to mass. The sequence and relative intensity of the mass peaks give information about the chemical identity of the solute. The absolute intensity of the peaks provides information about the amount of substance present.
