Characterization of Nanoparticles by Mass Spectrometry.

While mass spectrometry has been widely used for decades in biomolecules analyses, the story of mass spectrometric characterization of nanoparticles (NPs) is still short. The massspectrometry has recently received much attention in the nanoparticle world dueto its powerful usefulness especially in elucidating the chemical structures of the smaller-sized NPs (<5 nm) . 
We are witnessing the major improvements of mass spectrometry that are taking places both in the structural analyses of NPs but also in the mass elucidation of NPs. The advances are mainly coming in the form of improvements in instruments such as advances in ion sources.(Read more)
