Mixture-busting mass spectrometry trick turns any lab’s benchtop machine into a chromatography-free powerhouse
Warwick and Verdel Instruments researchers have shown that two-dimensional mass spectrometry, previously the preserve of scarce, expensive FT-ICR instruments, can now be performed on a common benchtop quadrupole time-of-flight machine, potentially letting ordinary clinical and research laboratories skip chromatography altogether while pulling more information from complex mixtures.
