Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Mass Spectrometry Letters publishes research on the application of mass spectrometry techniques for quantitative analysis and characterization. Studies focus on developing and validating analytical methods, often using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) or time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). Applications include impurity analysis in materials, metabolite profiling in biological samples, drug screening in biological fluids, and residue determination in food commodities.
