Anorexia is a very common manifestation of disease. Cats that are eating ravenously present less of a diagnostic dilemma, as there is a shorter list of illnesses that result in increased appetite (diabetes, hyperthyroidism, pancreatic insufficiency and a few others).
The fragments that survive the journey through the analyzer shoot into the electron multiplier-the detector of the GCMS. The electron multiplier detects every ion of the selected mass that passes through the quadrupole analyzer. Electron multipliers use a process known as secondary electron emission. When the ions hit a surface, it causes the electrons in the outermost area of the atom to be released, which are known as secondary electrons.
A multimetre is an instrument designed to measure electric current,voltage,and resistance,typically over several ranges of value. A multimeter combines a voltmeter, which measure voltage, a ohmmeter which measures resistance, and an ammeter, which measure current.
