Strategies for Higher Throughput MS Analyses (PDF)
The authors discuss current approaches for increasing throughput in MS analyses, including improved software information flow, data management and effective sample preparation, and how researchers should consider each of these with regard to their own needs.
High-Speed Laser MS for Precise, Prep-Free Environmental Particle Tracking
April 21st 2025Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have demonstrated that a fast, laser-based mass spectrometry method—LA-ICP-TOF-MS—can accurately detect and identify airborne environmental particles, including toxic metal particles like ruthenium, without the need for complex sample preparation. The work offers a breakthrough in rapid, high-resolution analysis of environmental pollutants.
