Varieties of Hyphenated Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry

Abstract
Because of the very powerful and common application of mass spectrometry with gas chromatography, the various technologies warrant more detailed consideration.[1-4] The following table provides basic information on the capabilities and applicability of the most common approaches. Clearly, the use of the single quadrupole is by far the most prevalent and economical method, but the other techniques are important and advantageous. We exclude methods that are typically not interfaced with gas chromatographic separations and that are highly specific in research settings (such as ion cyclotron mass spectrometry, and combined quadrupoles beyond the triple quad, and the various hybrid sector-quad-time of flight-ion trap combinations) that are used in fundamental ion chemistry research. We also exclude magnetic sector instruments that are seldom used with chromatography
