1 – Mass Spectrometers
A mass spectrometer is a medical device used to analyze the chemical composition of a sample. It works by ionizing the sample, separating the ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio, and detecting the resulting ions.
Mass spectrometers are used in a variety of medical applications. For example, they can be used to analyze blood or urine samples for drugs, hormones, or other biomarkers. They can also be used to analyze tissue samples for the presence of cancer cells or other abnormal cells.
One of the key benefits of mass spectrometry is its sensitivity. Mass spectrometers can detect very low levels of substances in a sample, which makes them useful for detecting trace amounts of drugs or other biomolecules.
