Abstract Entry is closed.

All notifications concerning the status of abstracts will be sent to the person logged in when the abstract is submitted. If you are entering an abstract for someone else it is your responsibility to notify that author of the status of the abstract.

Criteria
The ASMS Program Committee will meet to review abstracts. Abstracts must meet the following criteria: 

1. The results presented in each abstract should add something new to our base of knowledge in mass spectrometry. The novel aspect of your work is an important consideration during abstract review.
   
   
2. The abstract should include sufficient results to properly represent the experiments that will be presented.
   
   
3. There must be a fundamental difference between each of the abstracts submitted from a research group. The same results may not appear in multiple presentations.
   
   
4. Each attendee can be the presenting author on only one abstract (although an individual may be listed as a co-author on multiple abstracts).
   
   
5. Abstracts with substantial commercial content will not be accepted.
   
   
6. Failure to disclose information, such as the ID of compounds, is not acceptable.
