MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is the use of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization as a mass spectrometry imaging [2] technique in which the sample, often a thin tissue section, is moved in two dimensions while the mass spectrum is recorded. [3]
Due to MALDI being a soft ionization source, it is used on a wide veriety of biomolecules. This has led to it being used in new ways such as MALDI-imaging mass spectrometry. This technique allows for the imaging of the spacial distribution of biomolecules. [101]
More than 50 years ago, MSI was introduced using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) to study semiconductor surfaces by Castaing and Slodzian. [5] However, it was the pioneering work of Richard Caprioli and colleagues in the late 1990s, demonstrating how matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) could be applied to visualize large biomolecules (as proteins and lipids) in cells and ...
The schematic of IR-MALDESI imaging source. The IR-MALDESI source can be used for mass spectrometry imaging (MSI), a technique using MS data analyzed from a sample area to detect hundreds to thousands of biomolecules and visualize their spatial distributions.
In mass spectrometry, a matrix is a compound that promotes the formation of ions. Matrix compounds are used in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), matrix-assisted ionization (MAI), and fast atom bombardment (FAB).
A transgender military pilot posted a "proof of life" video to refute social media rumors that she flew the helicopter involved in the plane crash that killed 67 people.
More recently, another major contribution to the field of mass spectrometry was his application of MALDI mass spectrometry for imaging of biological samples. [3] First published in 1997, the technique has been widely adopted and has been used to visualize proteins, peptides, drugs and other small molecules in tissue and other biological materials.
