Analyte migration electrospray ionization for rapid analysis of complex samples with small volume using mass spectrometry

Analyst. 2014 Nov 21;139(22):5678-81. doi: 10.1039/c4an01397b.

Abstract

Complex biological matrices can be effectively removed in the analyte migration process because of their weak solubility in organic solvents. This technique offers other potential advantages, including high-sensitivity and the capability of performing a direct analysis of the components and their metabolites in small-volume raw samples without any pretreatment.
