Multireflecting gas chromatography-multireflecting time-of-flight mass spectrometer with high dynamic range.

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is a cornerstone technique for analyses of volatile and semivolatile compounds, constantly evolving to meet new challenges. The adoption of time-of-flight mass spectrometers (TOFMS) has enhanced GC-MS with faster spectral acquisition and broader mass coverage, enabling rapid GC separations. Multireflecting TOFMS (MRT) further improves resolution compared to traditional single-reflecting TOFMS, facilitating the detection of minor analytes within complex matrices.
