Electrospray Wings for
Molecular Fishes - The use of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in
analyzing polar pollutants in water, conférence
Dr. Thorsten REEMTSMA (Technical
University of Berlin, Institute of Environmental Technology, Department
of Water Quality Control)
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry
has not only revolutionized the field of protein analysis and led to the
development of proteomics. This technique has also drastically extended
the range of small molecules that is now accessible to mass spectrometry
towards very polar and ionic compounds.
Various examples will be shown how LC-MS can be used to identify and to
quantify highly polar compounds from water. Obviously, LC-MS has
developed into an indispensable tool to elucidate biodegradation
pathways of organic contaminants as well as to quantify the
concentration of pollutants in the aquatic environment.
