Differential electrochemical mass spectrometry.
TL;DR: Differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS) can be used not only to identify products or intermediates of continuous faradaic reactions, but also to characterize submonolayer amounts of adsorbates on polycrystalline and single crystal electrode surfaces by means of their desorption, because of its high sensitivity.

Structure Sensitivity of Methanol Electrooxidation Pathways on Platinum: An On-Line Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry Study
TL;DR: Mass spectrometry results indicate that the direct oxidation pathway through soluble intermediates plays a pronounced role on Pt (110) and Pt(111), while, on Pt(100), the indirect pathway through adsorbed carbon monoxide is predominant.
