It currently finds applications in all scientific disciplines such as chemistry, physics, biology, pharmacology, medicine, biochemistry and bio-agro-based industry. Right from the time of its invention in the first decade of the 20 th century, mass spectrometry has undergone tremendous improvements in terms of its sensitivity, resolution and mass range. Mass spectrometry makes a great scientific tool due to its capabilities to determine the mass of large biomolecular complexes, individual biomolecules, small organic molecules as well as single atoms and their isotopes.
1 Mass spectrometry (MS) is a unique technique that has an interdisciplinary nature, which freely crosses the borders of physics, chemistry and biology. A mass spectrometer is described as the smallest weighing scale in the world ever used.
