First sentence: interface exists which possesses similar capabilities to those available for GC-MS, i.e. one that will allow mass spectra to be obtained from any compound that elute from an HPLC column, and thus LC-MS has not been guaranteed to provide the required analytical information. In addition, the complexity of the mass spectrometer has meant that the majority of chromatographers have not had direct access to the instrumentation and have had to rely on a service facility to provide results.
