This introductory short course provides a practical guide to understanding and interpreting mass spectra generated by the atmospheric-pressure ionization techniques coupled with LC: electrospray ionization (ESI), atmospheric-pressure chemical ionization (APCI), and atmospheric-pressure photoionization (APPI). The course begins by outlining the information that mass spectrometry adds beyond a chromatogram and clarifying which analytical questions mass spectrometry can – and cannot – answer. Participants receive a concise refresher on mass-spectrometric fundamentals, along with an introduction to key terminology. The principles and practical consequences of ionization methods are then discussed, with emphasis on how ionization physics, LC conditions, and mobile-phase additives shape spectral appearance. Building on this foundation, the course develops practical skills for interpreting LC-ESI spectra: locating the molecular ion, determining charge state, recognizing common adducts, distinguishing in-source artefacts, and using isotope patterns to support elemental-composition hypotheses. Participants then explore how MS/MS fragmentation provides structural clues, with straightforward rules of thumb for neutral losses and class-specific fragmentation behaviors. The course concludes with an integrative exercise that synthesizes chromatographic, full-scan, and MS/MS information to support spectral interpretation. By the end, participants will be equipped with the essential skills needed to interpret LC-MS spectra effectively and to apply mass-spectrometric reasoning in routine chromatographic analysis.&nbsp;</p><h4><strong>Lecturers</strong></h4><h5><strong>Jan Cvačka</strong></h5><ul><li>Josef Cvačka is head of the Mass Spectrometry Group at the Institute of <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://lcms.labrulez.com/companies/62"><strong>Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences</strong></a> and an associate professor at the Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague.

ISC 2026 Short Course 3 - Interpretation of Mass Spectra: Basic Introduction for Chromatographers

<p><strong>Eurachem and CITAC welcome analysts interested in the evaluation of chemical analysis uncertainty and in how to use this information in results interpretation. The Eurachem Week 2026 will begin with a training course on “Evaluation of the measurement uncertainty from in-house precision and recovery data” scheduled for Sunday, 10 May 2026. A two-days workshop on “Quality in Analytical Measurements: Uncertainty Evaluation and Results Interpretation” open to all interested participants will take place from 11 to 12 May 2026. On 13 May 2026, the Eurachem Working Groups will convene, followed by the Eurachem General Assembly, which will bring together the Executive and national delegates on 14 and 15 May. Both Working Group Meetings and the General Assembly are restricted to their members.</strong></p><p>The results of qualitative and quantitative chemical analyses should have an acceptable uncertainty, which should ideally be reported and considered in results interpretation.</p><p>For many analytical applications, simplified uncertainty evaluations can determine uncertainty values that meet the defined requirements for this parameter. The workshop will focus on the key technical challenges involved in practical evaluations of measurement uncertainty based on precision and recovery data gathered during in-house method validation and quality control. There will be a discussion of how to model the variation of the measurement uncertainty within the analytical range and how to handle divergent recovery values from the analysis of various reference materials. A session on the use of measurement uncertainty in conformity assessment will explore how the risk of false conformity decisions can be managed.</p><blockquote><h5><strong>New Eurachem guidance on using in-house precision and recovery data will be discussed at the workshop.</strong></h5></blockquote><p>Topics will also include the validation and uncertainty evaluation for qualitative analyses with particular attention to current accreditation requirements for these types of analysis. The last session of the workshop will be dedicated to the evaluation of measurement uncertainty arising from sampling and using it to judge the fitness for purpose, and hence validation, of measurement procedures that include sampling. Four sessions of the workshop will include engaging breakout sessions where participants will have the chance to share their views about challenging aspects of the analytical work. Participants are invited to propose posters and oral communications on session topics or any other relevant topic for analytical chemists or stakeholders of the analytical work.</p><h3><strong>Registration</strong></h3><blockquote><p class="cke-user_style-important"><strong>👉</strong><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://conferences.chemistry.pt/register/eurachem2026"><strong>Register here for the workshop</strong></a></p></blockquote><h4><strong>Registration Fees</strong></h4><h5><strong>Early bird (EUR) - Until April 15th</strong></h5><ul><li><strong>Workshop: Regular participant (11 &amp; 12 May 2026): </strong>400 EUR</li><li><strong>Workshop: Student (11 &amp; 12 May 2026): </strong>250 EUR</li><li><strong>Eurachem Working Group<sup>1</sup> (13 May 2026):</strong> 75</li><li><strong>General Assembly<sup>2</sup> (14 &amp; 15 May 2026): </strong>250</li><li><strong>Training On Uncertainty Evaluation<sup>3</sup> (10 May 2026):</strong> 150</li></ul><h5><strong>After April 15th</strong></h5><ul><li><strong>Workshop: Regular participant (11 &amp; 12 May 2026): </strong>450 EUR</li><li><strong>Workshop: Student (11 &amp; 12 May 2026):</strong> 300 EUR</li><li><strong>Eurachem Working Group<sup>1</sup> (13 May 2026): </strong>100</li><li><strong>General Assembly<sup>2</sup> (14 &amp; 15 May 2026):</strong> 300</li><li><strong>Training On Uncertainty Evaluation<sup>3</sup> (10 May 2026): </strong>200</li></ul><blockquote><p>§ - <strong>50 EUR reduction for members of Eurachem</strong>, CITAC, SPQ, RELACRE, ForMEQ and SPMet at the workshop.</p><p>10% reduction for organisations that registered more than one participant.</p><p><sup>1 </sup>- Working group members</p><p><sup>2</sup> - Eurachem members</p><p><sup>3</sup> - 50% reduction for workshop participants</p></blockquote><h3><strong>Workshop</strong></h3><h4><strong>Eurachem/CITAC Workshop on Quality in Analytical Measurements:</strong></h4><h5><strong>Uncertainty Evaluation and Results Interpretation</strong></h5><p>The results of qualitative and quantitative chemical analyses should have an acceptable uncertainty, which should ideally be reported and considered in results interpretation.
