Volume 6: Ionization Methods
Volume 6 captures the story of molecular ionization and its
phenomenal evolution that makes mass spectrometry the powerful
method it is today. Chapters 1 and 2 cover fundamentals and various
issues that are common to all ionization (e.g., accurate mass,
isotope clusters, and derivatization).
Chapters 3-9 acknowledge that some ionization methods are
appropriate for gas-phase molecules and others for molecules that
are in the solid or liquid states. Chapters 3-6 cover gas-phase
molecules, dividing the subject into: (1) ionization of gas-phase
molecules by particles (e.g., EI), (2) ionization by photons, (3)
ionization by ion-molecule and molecule-molecule reactions (e.g.,
APCI and DART), and ionization in Strong electric fields (i.e.,
Electrohydrodynamic and Field Ionization/Desorption).
"Ionization in a Strong Electric Field" illustrates the
transition to ionization of molecules in the solid or liquid
states, covered in Chapters 7-9: (1) spray methods for ionization
(e.g., electrospray), (2) desorption ionization by particle
bombardment (e.g., FAB), and (3) desorption by photons (e.g.,
MALDI). Electrospray and MALDI also lead to applications in
biophysical chemistry, the theme of Chapter 10.
Chapter 11 reconsiders ionization from the view of choosing an
ionization method. The range of subjects is from ionization of
organic and biomolecules to the study of microorganisms.
