Mass Spectrometry

Mass Spectrometry in Pharmaceutical Industry

Biochemical applications of Mass Spectrometry (MS) are important in the Pharmaceutical industry. They comprise compositional analyses of biomolecules, especially proteins, and methods that measure molecular functions such as ligand binding. Mass Spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a front-runner technique in pharmaceutical analysis, covering both qualitative and quantitative aspects. In fact, the area of use of MS is increasing at such an unprecedented rate that new applications are getting developed almost on daily basis.
