Talk:Robert E. Finnigan

Not the first GCMS
"GC/MS technology, of which Finnigan Instrument Corporation's instrument was the first . . ." I worked in the Ray Scott lab at Unilever in England in 1966. We had a GCMS which was a Pye 104 GC (if memory serves - we later replaced it with a Pye 107)coupled with a magnetic sector AEI MS9. It's OR of course so I cannot edit the piece with this info. Bob Finnigan's quadrupole MS was a major advance and made it much more feasible and cheaper - but he did not invent GCMS technology.Cross Reference (talk) 02:58, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
