Suwan Jayasinghe, Analyst, 2013, 138, 2215-2223
The Issue 8 of Analyst is now online. Take a look at our beautiful covers and discover all about the latest research in the field of analytical chemistry.
The outside front cover introduces the interesting minireview written by Suwan Jayasinghe from the University College London, featuring the most recent tools developed to generate fibers, scaffolds and membranes for application in regenerative biology and medicine. According to the author, these structures have important implications in both the laboratory and clinical settings, as they mimic the native extracellular matrix and can be used to directly reconstruct a three-dimensional functional tissue.

Our inside front cover features the work of Zhong-Ping Yao and colleagues from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, who reported a new tool for detection and quantitation of ketamine and norketamine. In this study, drugs are detected in urine and oral fluids using wooden-tip electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (WT-ESI-MS). Compared to other methods, this approach has the advantage of little sample preparation and no chromatographic separation.
