Applications of plasma source mass spectrometry selected papers from the second International Conference on Plasma Source Mass Spectrometry held at the University of Durham, 24 - 28th September 1990

This book documents recent developments in and applications of the techniques of plasma source mass spectrometry, primarily the hugely popular inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and glow discharge mass spectrometry. It contains papers from both academic and industrial laboratories worldwide and covers the scientific and technical development of the technique, as well as the whole gamut of applications including environmental, biomedical, food sciences, nuclear, geological, chemical, semiconductor and metal analysis. Applications of Plasma Source Mass Spectrometry has a very broad subject base and describes the very latest research, bringing workers in the field up-to-date with the rapid developments that have recently taken place.
