This review focuses on the application of matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the characterization of molecules in the low mass range (<1500 Da). Despite its reputation to the contrary, MALDI is a powerful technique to provide both qualitative and quantitative determination of low molecular weight compounds. Several approaches to minimize interference via sample preparation and matrix selection are discussed, as well as coupling of MALDI to liquid and planar chromatographic techniques to extend its range of applicability.
