The literature was scoped to help place mass spectrometric (MS) platforms in the spotlight of the life sciences, as a tool of OMICS and OMICS 2.0 technologies. These methods were discussed, and their feasibility was highlighted in many reviews that have been periodically published, in addition to the most recently developed term OMICS 2.0. This author’s primary interest was the forensic application of MS, but since these interests got broadened, terms such as “biosensors” were also included. So, means of discovery of efficient biomarkers and clinical therapeutic targets were also reviewed. However, within the framework of this review, physical chemistry, bioinformatics, or specific software solutions were not specifically scoped. Aside from simply reviewing the research status and the future perspectives, this article tackles terms such as Society 5.0 and OMICS 2.0. Since the topic of generating permanent collections of digital content for retrospective analysis was reviewed, what requires loads of data – cloud storage is discussed in the context of MS. In this manner, the review has strengthened an in-depth understanding of the applications of MS. These large quantities of data are easier to operate with if generated by MS, rather than by any other commercially available assay.
