Abstract
An ionization chamberis provided between a liquid chromatograph unitand a mass spectrometer, and is formed of: an atomization means; and an ion introducing pipeof which the entrance portion is created within the ionization chamberin the horizontal direction that is perpendicular to the Z direction and of which the exit portion is created within the mass spectrometer unit. A liquid sample that has been fed from the liquid chromatograph unitis sprayed in the Z direction by the atomization meanswhile being ionized within the ionization chamber, wherein the entrance portion has an opening in such a form that corresponds to the spread in the XY plane of the liquid sample sprayed in the Z direction. The sprayed liquid sample is then fed into the mass spectrometer unitwhile being desolvated, which effectively contributes to analysis.
