The Use of Accurate Mass Measurement by Orthogonal Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry in Pharmaceuticals Research

Allan Maccoll was the founding editor of Organic Mass Spectrometry, the first journal dedicated to the application of mass spectrometry to the analysis of organic structures. Many papers in OMS described the elucidation of structures from natural and synthetic sources. This is still a major application of mass spectrometry today, especially in those fine chemical industries such as Pharmaceuticals which depend on the discovery and development …
