The continuous‐flow fast atom bombardment probe interface has been used for the direct analysis of aqueous biochemical reactions. This device was used in two ways: in a constant flow mode and a flow injection mode. Each method has particular advantages which are illustrated with specific applications, including measurement of enzyme kinetics, comparative rates of hydrolysis of multi‐substrate/single enzyme reactions, C‐terminal peptide sequence analysis, and characterization of multi‐enzyme/single substrate systems.
