Recent advances of capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry instrumentation and methodology

Capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) is a powerful separation and analytical technique in the field of analytical chemistry. This review provides an update of instrumentation developments in the methodology of CE-MS systems. A selection of relevant articles covers the literatures published from Jan. 2013 to Feb. 2017. Special attentions were paid to the sample injection and ionization processes. Applications of these CE-MS systems were also introduced through representative examples. General conclusions and perspectives were given at the last.
