ABSTRACTIn order to open a new window for getting insight into the process of matrix assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) of biopolymers, a highly sensitive quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) was developed to measure desorption yields of neutral particles. For the matrix substances commonly used the mass resolution of 0.95 ng obtained with the balance corresponds to a detection limit of ∼1012 particles.

cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum(ii), also known as cisplatin, is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent to treat several malignant tumours, but unfortunately it causes serious side effects, especially nausea, vomiting and nephrotoxicity.
