What is Mass Spectrometry | Scripps Research
A mass spectrometer determines the mass of a molecule by measuring the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of its ion. Ions are generated by inducing either the loss or gain of a charge from a …
Mass Spectrometry: Timeline - Scripps Research
Mass spectrometry has revolutionized proteomics in a manner analogous to the impact of massively parallel DNA sequencing on genomics and transcriptomics. In this study, high …
Mass Spectrometry: Essay "A History of the Mass Spectrometer"
A mass spectrometer is whatever operates by process that could be used to produce a mass spectrum, no matter how different its design and processes may be from those of any other …
Brief History of Mass Spectrometry | Scripps Research
First mass spectrometer with solids injection probe sold to UNITED STATES PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE LABORATORIES in Cincinnati, OH. Used by Dr. Richard Kupel to study the …
Mass Spectrometry Innovators - Scripps Research
The use of electronics to revolutionize the mass doublet method of determining relative atomic masses, effectively turning mass spectrographs into mass spectrometers.
Mass Spectrometry Instrumentation | Scripps Research
May 26, 1998 · Thomson's protégé, Francis W. Aston of the University of Cambridge, designed a mass spectrometer in which ions were dispersed by mass and focused by velocity--which …
Mass Spectrometry: Who was John Dalton? - Scripps Research
Today, units of atomic mass (atomic mass units or "amu's") are often referred to as "daltons" in honor of John Dalton. His analytical apparatus could appropriately be called the world's first …

Mass Spectrometry: Selected Excerpts - Scripps Research
From about 1915-1920 on, mass spectrometry developed along two main lines: one concerned with the precise determination of masses, and the other concerned with measuring the relative …
