Mass spectrometry (MS) is the major analytical technology used for protein identification, sequencing, and quantitation, and is central to discoveries in proteomics, and is likely to be a major tool for the study of protein interactions in the coming years.

Mass spectrometry (MS) is a crucial method in ensuring the production, quality, and safety of grape, wine, and grape-derivative products. This book concisely presents the applications of mass spectrometry in the analysis of wine, from traditional to more recent developments.

Provides an overview of the use of mass spectrometry (MS) for the analysis of pesticide residues and their metabolites.

The purpose of the book is to introduce platelets, and their functional role in thrombotic and cardiovascular disease, justifying the relevance of platelet proteomics research. Focus then shifts to the recent developments on mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics.

Mass spectrometry is a powerful analytical technique used to identify unknown compounds, to quantify known materials, and to elucidate the structural and chemical properties of molecules. Inorganic mass spectrometry focuses on the analysis of metals and elements rather than organic compounds.
