Shimadzu GCMS-QP2010 Plus

Location: Biosciences Room 2009

The Shimadzu GCMS-QP2010 Plus is equipped with a split/splitless liquid injector, coupled to a single quadrupole mass spectrometer with EI. The mass spectrometer has a mass range of 1.5 to 1090 Da, and can operate in Scan, SIM or simultaneous Scan/SIM modes. 

GC-MS is good for: Volatile or semi-volatile analytes that are thermally stable and relatively low molecular weight, analytes can be derivatized to make them amenable to GC-MS e.g. FAME analysis
