Abstract:
A sample introduction unit  2  regularly collects a sample from a sample passage  1 . A measurement unit  3  performs an LC/MS analysis for the collected sample. A spectrum matching judgment section  42  performs image recognition referring to mass spectra in a normal condition accumulated in a normal spectrum database  44 , to determine whether a measured mass spectrum is in a normal condition. If the mass spectrum is non-normal, an abnormal peak locator  45  locates a peak which should not be detected in the normal condition, and an MS n  analysis with the located peak selected as the target is performed in the measurement unit  3  under an MS n  analysis execution commander  46 . An identification processor  47  performs substance identification by a library search based on an acquired MS n  spectrum. Upon successful identification, an alert commander  49  issues an alert. Thus, the system can automatically monitor hazardous substances with high accuracy.

Claim (Index 9):
The specific substance monitoring system according to  claim 2 , wherein:\n the sample to be subjected to the measurement is a liquid sample, the mass spectrometer is a liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer, and the sample collector includes: a sample container including a storage portion in which an inlet passage and an outlet passage for a liquid sample are provided, and a portion of a wall of the sample container is sealed with a septum; a sample suction-ejection unit including a needle, for suctioning and ejecting a liquid sample through the needle; a sample injection port for injecting a sample into a liquid chromatograph unit; a driver for making the needle move between a position at which the needle penetrates the septum of the sample container and the sample injection port; and a controller for controlling operations of the driver and the sample suction-ejection unit so as to make the needle move to the position at which the needle penetrates the septum of the sample container and suction a liquid sample contained in the storage portion of the sample container, and subsequently make the needle move to the sample injection port and eject the liquid sample into the sample injection port.
