Abstract
The most recent applications of mass spectrometry are oriented towards biochemical applications such as proteome, metabolome and drug discovery. During the last decade, mass spectrometry has progressed rapidly and an evolution has been observed in the type of applications, software and equipments. Atmospheric pressure ionization sources are now used, an analyser based on a new concept (the orbitrap) was recently developed, existing ones were modified, and new hybrid instruments were developed using combinations of different analysers, depending on applications.(...)
