Overview

Mass spectroscopy is an analytical technique that measures the mass-to-charge ratio of ions to identify and quantify chemical compounds in a sample. Research published in Advanced Pharmaceutical Science And Technology demonstrates the application of mass spectrometry across pharmaceutical quality control, food safety, and natural product characterization. Studies have employed liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to detect adulterants in dietary supplements marketed for sexual enhancement, ensuring product safety and regulatory compliance. The journal has published work using LC-MS for comprehensive food safety applications and for analyzing isotopic abundance ratios in pharmaceutical compounds including metronidazole and cholecalciferol. Mass spectrometry has also been applied to characterize oligomeric proanthocyanidins through carbon-13 isotope analysis in relation to anticancer properties, and to evaluate bioactive compounds in plant extracts such as Opuntia ficus indica for therapeutic applications. Additional research has utilized mass spectrometry in synthetic chemistry to confirm the structure of newly synthesized compounds including glycosyl amides and purine-modified nucleoside analogues. These applications underscore the technique's essential role in pharmaceutical development, quality assurance, natural product research, and ensuring the safety and authenticity of therapeutic compounds.
