HighlightsDroplet-MS offers selective, high-throughput analysis for low volume samples.Applications include drug screening, chemical reaction development, and in vivo sensing.Droplet coupling methods for ESI and MALDI enable the analysis of diverse samples.Droplet microfluidics enables development of workflows with low sample consumption and high throughput. Fluorescence-based assays are most used with droplet microfluidics; however, the requirement of a fluorescent reporter restricts applicability of this approach. The coupling of droplets to mass spectrometry (MS) has enabled selective assays on complex mixtures to broaden the analyte scope. Droplet microfluidics has been interfaced to MS via electrospray ionization (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI). The works reviewed herein outline the development of this nascent field as well as initial exploration of its application in biotechnology and bioanalysis, including synthetic biology, reaction development, and in vivo sensing.
