Abstract
I wish to respond to the excellent article by Scott A. Cunningham and Robin Patel of the Mayo Clinic entitled “MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry in a Clinical Lab Setting” in the August 2014 issue of Microbe (p. 328–333). This particular article addresses a very important issue in the clinical microbiology laboratory. It is written in clear, easy-to-understand laymen's language with superior illustrations of the scientific principles involved. The article serves to completely eliminate fears and paranoia of the new technologies for laboratory workers who have been in the field for over 20 years and may feel threatened. The old adage is still very true. You don't have to have a Ph.D in physics to use electricity.
