  5. 4. Database for targeted drug screening with Liquid Chromatography - Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry, (LC-TOFMS)

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Emma Colnerud Nilsson; [2010]
    Keywords : Toxicological screening; liquid chromatography - time-of-flight mass spectrometry; limited database; evaluation;

    Abstract : Today there are no fully general analytical techniques available for detection and confirmation of known and unknown substances in toxicological screening, further tools are therefore needed. The development of mass spectrometry with time-of-flight (TOF) detection is promising but there are still areas to be further developed and evaluated, both instrumentation and applications. READ MORE
