Microsampling – a look back at 2015 Editorial
tigations into the technique and ongoing innovations have led us to the current state of the ‘slope of enlight- enment’, which can be said to be associated with the expansion of microsampling beyond its DBS origins to a wealth of other microsampling techniques and work- flows. This increased understanding and the availabil- ity of a broader variety of tools will hopefully lead the combined microsampling techniques to the ‘plateau of productivity’. In this final state, microsampling will find its exclusive niche, where its advantages over other approaches for the generation of bioanalytical data in certain situations will be generally recognised and, hence, it will be preferentially used in these circum- stances. The agenda for microsampling for quantita-
