The current volume reviews novel instrumentation and techniques as applied to the analysis of diacylglycerylphospholipids, modifications to DNA, and the characterization of variant hemoglobins. It reflects the flexible, broad-based approaches mass spectroscopists apply to clinical and biomedical cha
