Abstract
Ambient ionization techniques enable the interrogation of a variety of samples in their native state by mass spectrometry, and are rapidly advancing all fields where screening for the presence of various analytes in a broadband and/or high-throughput fashion is desirable. This Highlight article provides an introduction to the field, and showcases the different ionization approaches reported since 2004, with an emphasis on the most recent developments.Keywords
