This article begins with a brief history. It then explains the principles of operation of this mass spectrometer. The idealized view of its operation has to be tempered by consideration of some real-world situations that influence performance, such as the finite length of the field, the inevitability of fringing fields and field imperfections. Observations of performance and its limitations are illustrated. The applications section deals with residual gas analysis, gas chromatography and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS and LC-MS), collision induced dissociation using triple quadrupoles (MS/MS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) used for elemental analysis. 

Gas and liquid chromatography directly coupled with atomic spectrometry have been reviewed [178,179], as well as the determination of trace elements by chromatographic methods employing atomic plasma emission spectrometric detection [180]. Sutton et al. [181] have reviewed the use and applications of ICP-MS as a chromatographic and capillary electrophoretic detector, whereas Niessen [182] has briefly reviewed the applications of mass spectrometry to hyphenated techniques. 

MIP sensor elements are also suitable for the analysis of multicomponent samples. The cost-effective, miniaturised, non-covalent MIP sensor arrays, when combined with computational data evaluation, make weak artificial recognition phenomena highly applicable for smart sensors. In comparison to gas or liquid chromatography, the results with mass-sensitive MIP sensors are faster and cheaper to obtain [32]. For effective on-line monitoring, the ideal MIP sensor or actuator should allow reversible analyte enrichment without dependencies on intermediate washing procedures (with organic solvents, for example).

In contrast to liquid chromatography which is the technique of choice when considering high molecular mass constituents, gas chromatography (GC) is well-suited for the fractionation of low molecular mass species which are volatile, thermally stable and preferably neutral. Some species that do not already possess the above properties can be converted into forms that are amenable to GC. Various derivatization procedures that can be used to perform such conversions have been described by Poole and Schuette (1984). However, it Is worth mentioning that hydride formation and alkylation are the two most commonly used derivatization methods that have found application in the study of the speciation of various elements like As, Bi, Ge, Hg, Pb, Sb, Se, Sn, Te and Tl. Two points have to be considered when derivatization is performed first, the specificity of the chemical conversion second, the percentage yield of the reaction. A specific reaction is desirable in order to avoid the introduction of artefacts. Moreover, if a quantitative estimate of the amount of the original species is required, then it is essential that the extent of the conversion is known.

Abstract This chapter introduces an application of multivariate curve resolution (MCR) technique based on a factor analysis. Not only series of IR spectra but also two-dimensional data (series of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD)) can deal with same manner (further more two-dimensional data generated by hyphenated techniques such as gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and liquid chromatography/ultravi-olet (LC/UV) analysis, which combine two functions based on different principles, namely, chromatography, which has a separating function, and spectrometry, which provides information related to molecular structure). By using MCR techniques appropriately, the mixture data is resolved into some essential elements (chemical components, transient states and phases). The results can reveal a true chemical characteristic in your study. 

A very recent volume edited by Berthed (2002) is on countercurrent chromatography - the support-free liquid stationary phase. Ebdon et al. (1987) review directly coupled liquid chromatogramphy-atomic spectroscopy. The review by Uden (1995) on element-specific chromatographic detection by atomic absorption, plasma atomic emission and plasma mass spectrometry covers the principles and applications of contemporary methods of element selective chromatographic detection utilizing AA, AES and MS. Flame and furnace are considered for GC and HPLC, while MIP emission is considered for GC and ICPAES for HPLC. Combinations of GC and HPLC with both MIPAES and ICPAES are covered and supercritical fluid chromatographic (SFC) and field flow fractionation (FFF) are also considered.
