In this initial installment of "MS - The Practical Art," a new series of columns is introduced that investigates various aspects of mass spectrometry (MS) from the perspective of some leading practitioners. Here, featured scientists Kathleen Cox and Timothy Baker discuss several MS technologies and strategies currently being applied to characterize drug candidates in early stage development.

The authors investigated the analytical capabilities of quadrupole, time-of-flight, and Fourier transform mass analyzers for liquid chromatography electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-MS) applications.
This month's "Directions in Discovery" gives a brief overview of turbulent- flow liquid chromatography, a technique for fast separations. Two examples demonstrate the use of the technology for high-throughput bioanalytical separations in drug discovery.
The authors investigated the two most popular types of interfaces for benchtop LC–MS systems – the particle interface and the atmospheric-pressure ionization interface – to learn how the information obtained separately from the two can be complementary.
Despite their different levels of technological maturity, CE and LC coupled with electrospray ionization MS techniques can be operated at the same level of automation. However, they differ in their configuration, selectivity, sensitivity, and method development.
Current sample preparation procedures for LC–MS as applied to samples from biological matrices.
