Volume 5: Elemental and Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry focuses on (1) the plethora of mostly atomic ionization techniques that have been coupled to MS for elemental analysis, the measurement of isotope ratios, and even the determination of inorganic compounds and (2) the precise measurement of isotope ratios of organic elements as small gas molecules by isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS).

• Reviews the wide range of ionization and isotope methods used in inorganic mass spectrometry today
• Features tutorials describing the key principles and instrumentation relevant to each method
• Evaluates practical applications for the analysis of environmental, biological, biomedical, nutritional, geological, nuclear, microelectronic and extra-terrestrial materials
• Includes more than 3400 references, 100 tables and 500 figures of which more than 200 are in color
