MALDI MS: A Practical Guide to Instrumentation, Methods and Applications  (English, Hardcover, Franz Hillenkamp, Jasna Peter-Katalinic)

The introduction of the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization technique (MALDI) changed mass spectrometry (MS) into a powerful tool for biomedical analysis that is now widely employed in academic as well as industrial laboratories.

In 2002 the Nobel Prize was awarded for the development of the MALDI MS technology and for the impact it has on identifying and revealing the structures of biological macromolecules.

This unique book gives an in-depth description of the many different applications of MALDI MS, along with a detailed discussion of the technology itself. It will be a much-needed practical and educational asset for individuals, academic institutions and companies in the field of bioanalytics.
