Abstract

Traditionally, structural analysis by mass spectrometry has been limited to small organic molecules that are volatile and thermally stable, since the initial step involves heating the sample in a vacuum. During the past several years, new ionization methods have been developed that can produce gas-phase molecular and fragment ions from nonvolatile samples; these are presented to the mass spectrometer as liquids (solutions) or solids. As a consequence of these developments, mass spectrometry has come to play an increasing role in the biological sciences.
