Abstract

ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY DIVISION

COMMISSION ON ANALYTICAL NOMENCLATURE

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NOMENCLATURE OF MASS SPECTROMETRY

RULES APPROVED 1973

This report was prepared for the Commission by Professor A. J. B. Robertson. Particular attention was paid to definitions already proposed by the Fachnormenausschuss Vakuumtechnik in Deutschen Normenausschuss and in the Editorial Review on Nomenclature in Organic Mass Spectrometry, 2, 249 (1969).

The report has been widely circulated by the Commission to experts in many countries in first and second draft forms and, following publication as a tentative nomenclature report in the IUPAC Information Bulletin No. 17 in February 1972, it was modified in the light of comments received over a period of eight months. This final report incorporates many of the Suggestions made on previous drafts and is now presented as rules approved 1973.
