Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) has been pursued f or fast DNA analysis and sequencing. In this article, recent progress on detecting large oligonucleotides is reviewed. The potential applica tion of MALDI for population screening for disease diagnosis is discus sed. The approach of using MALDI for DNA sequencing is presented. Disc ussion on the use of robotic and automation to speed up the mass spect rometer sequencing process is also included. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Son s, Inc.
