Abstract
An overview is given of three mass spectrometric techniques that can be applied for solid analysis: spark source mass spectrometry (SSMS), glow discharge mass spectrometry (GDMS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Some benefits and limitations, and some typical applications of these techniques are discussed.
