The latest book in the Royal Society of Chemistry book series, Practical and Technical Guides for Laboratory Based Chemists, was published at the end of June 2025!
Selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) is a chromatography-free, direct-analysis technique that is ideally suited to real-time, quantitative analysis of volatile compounds in air at trace concentrations.
This book provides readers with a broad understanding of the principles of the SIFT-MS technique and how it differs from conventional chromatographic approaches that are used for analysis of volatiles.
This book addresses two needs for SIFT-MS users:
As a reference work, it gathers the fundamental principles from the literature and laboratory experience to provide a practical textbook for those using SIFT-MS in routine laboratories, research organisations and academia.
It utilises a procedure-based approach to apply principles to routine analysis, simplifying implementation in routine analysis laboratories, while also accelerating effective application in other specialisations.
About the book series
This series provides a suite of accessible, practical and technical guides for chemists and laboratory technicians to address the need for laboratory skills development. The topics covered are broadly in analytical science and chemistry. They are technical books to help develop skills, keep users up to date with technical developments, especially those that can save time and improve reliability, and provide guidance to ensure strict safety procedures and safety checks. The books are interdisciplinary so could be used in chemical, biological, physical and life sciences laboratories.
The primary audience for the series is practicing analytical chemists and scientific laboratory technicians across academia and industry including teaching laboratory technicians based in educational institutions, public health organisations and environmental agencies and utility companies.
The series editors include Anthias Consulting Senior Consultant and Director, Dr Diane Turner.
