Download or read book Ambient Laser Ablation Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry Imaging written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identification and confirmation of (bio)chemical entities in ambient MS mostly involves accurate mass determination, often in combination with MS/MS work flows. However, an accurate mass only provides the elemental composition of the (bio)molecule, still resulting in numerous possible structures. MS/MS procedures are often insufficient in differentiating between the hundreds possible candidate substances in database searches. Obtaining additional information and thereby improving structural assignment as well as reducing the vast number of possible candidates is thus of high importance in any ambient MS(I) study. In Chapter 5 we present an ambient hydrogen/deuterium exchange (HDX) LAESI-MS method for structure elucidation and confirmation of (bio)molecules. The concept was demonstrated with small molecules, peptides, and proteins. Moreover, the same approach could be applied to MSI as shown by the ambient MSI of arginine and oligosaccharides on an orange slice. Eventually, this approach will allow spatially resolved MSI of different protein conformers and may have a major impact in the life sciences.

Download or read book Ambient Ionization Mass Spectrometry for the Forensic Screening of Pharmaceuticals and the Determination of Potential Drug Candidates written by Leonard Nyadong and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ambient mass spectrometry (MS) is a new and growing sub-field in MS which has opened new research avenues, particularly for applications relating to the analysis of solid samples. Results on the implementation and application of ambient MS techniques including: desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) and direct analysis in real time (DART) indicated that these techniques could serve as complementary tools for the rapid qualitative screening of pharmaceuticals, allowing up to two orders of magnitude improvement in throughput compared to traditional methods such as liquid chromatography MS. The selectivity of DESI could be enhanced by performing the experiment in the reactive mode. In this mode, complexation reactions between reagents added to the spray solvent and analytes on the sample surface resulted in analyte stabilization, inhibiting fragmentation. They also resulted in a concomitant enhancement in the analyte surface activity, facilitating their evaporation from secondary droplets culminating in an improvement in sensitivity. Also for drug tablets analysis, the analyte signal dependency on DESI geometrical set-up variables could be mitigated following the careful and controlled addition of an isotopically labeled internal standard (IS) to the sample or by spraying samples with a pair of reagents with different affinities for the analyte. Either of these approaches resulted in an analyte-to-IS signal ratio (in the former) or an analyte complex ratio (in the later), which was largely independent of DESI experimental variables allowing quantitative analysis using this technique. DESI MS was also observed to be a very powerful tool for determining the 2-D distribution of various pharmaceutically important compounds on tablet and tissue surfaces. The ability to map the distribution of molecules of interest by DESI MS has very great implications in drug tablet quality control and in determining the role of chemical signals presented on tissue surfaces. DESI was observed to be limited to ionizing molecules of medium to high polarities without much limitation in terms of mass range, whereas DART was better suited for the analysis of molecules within a broader range of polarities, but within a more limited mass range (up to 800 Da approximately). These limitations were circumvented by implementing a novel multimode ambient ion source, desorption electrospray/metastable-induced ionization (DEMI), which combines various aspects of DESI and DART. Initial experiments with the DEMI ion source demonstrated its ability to enable the simultaneous analysis of molecules within a broader range of polarities and masses than DESI and DART alone.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Direct analysis using mass spectrometry (MS) techniques provide a powerful approach to investigate the molecular composition and spatial distribution of complex samples with high sensitivity and specificity. In particular, these techniques have been widely applied to achieve rapid molecular analysis of complex clinical samples including native tissue samples and biospecimens. Several types of direct analysis MS techniques have been developed for tissue analysis including a variety of ambient ionization MS techniques and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) MS. Notably, both approaches are highly capable of performing molecular imaging of endogenous metabolites, lipids, and proteins to characterize tissue samples. Furthermore, through applying ambient ionization and MALDI MS imaging techniques, new insights into disease state can be learned by investigating the correlation between spatially resolved molecular information with histological evaluation in tissue samples. Although several other types of direct analysis MS techniques have been developed, this dissertation focuses on advancements using solvent-based ambient ionization MS (e.g. desorption electrospray ionization (DESI)) and MALDI MS imaging methods for tissue analysis and disease characterization. In Chapter 2, a fundamental and systematic investigation of the affect of solvent properties on molecular extraction processes in solvent-based ambient ionization was performed. In Chapter 3, the performance of DESI MS imaging for the analysis and statistical classification of thyroid fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies using different solvents, sources, and high-performance MS systems was evaluated. Next, Chapter 4 describes the development of a sample preparation method for MALDI MS imaging to improve detection of various endogenous proteins by selectively reducing signal from hemoglobin proteins in blood-rich tissues. Lastly, in Chapter 5, various MALDI imaging MS methods were applied to characterize the protein and N-glycan molecular signatures in endometriosis tissues and provide new insights into possible mechanisms of endometriosis development and progression. Collectively, this dissertation provides insights into the fundamental aspects, method developments, and applications of direct analysis MS techniques including solvent-based ambient ionization MS and MALDI MS imaging for tissue analysis. Furthermore, this dissertation showcases the exciting and significant potential of direct analysis MS techniques to solve current challenges in the clinic and provide new insights in healthcare and medicine

Download or read book Plume Analysis in Laser Desorption and Ablation written by Xing Fan and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamental physical processes of mid infrared laser ablation in the context of laser desorption mass spectrometry were investigated. Understanding the mechanisms of infrared laser desorption and ablation can lead to improvements in these techniques and expand their applications. Particles were generated from glycerol irradiated at atmospheric pressure using a tunable infrared laser at wavelengths between 2.6 and 3.8 m. The wavelength dependence of size distributions of ablated particles was measured. In addition to particle sizing, fast photography was used to study the dynamics of mid infrared laser desorption and ablation. The wavelength and energy of the infrared laser can be used to effectively "tune" the composition of the desorption plume. This ability to control the composition of the plume will be used in the development of IR laser ambient ionization mass spectrometry techniques such as atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (AP-MALDI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption electrospray ionization (MALDESI) where the ability to control material removal is critical to efficient ionization."

Download or read book Characterization of a Hybrid Optical Microscopy Laser Ablation Liquid Vortex Capture Electrospray Ionization System for Mass Spectrometry Imaging written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herein, a commercial optical microscope, laser microdissection instrument was coupled with an electrospray ionization mass spectrometer via a low profile liquid vortex capture probe to yield a hybrid optical microscopy/mass spectrometry imaging system. The instrument has bright-field and fluorescence microscopy capabilities in addition to a highly focused UV laser beam that is utilized for laser ablation of samples. With this system, material laser ablated from a sample using the microscope was caught by a liquid vortex capture probe and transported in solution for analysis by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Both lane scanning and spot sampling mass spectral imaging modes were used. The smallest area the system was able to ablate was ~0.544 [mu]m × ~0.544 [mu]m, achieved by oversampling of the smallest laser ablation spot size that could be obtained (~1.9 [mu]m). With use of a model photoresist surface, known features as small as ~1.5 [mu]m were resolved. The capabilities of the system with real world samples were demonstrated first with a blended polymer thin film containing poly(2-vinylpyridine) and poly(N-vinylcarbazole). Using spot sampling imaging, sub-micrometer sized features (0.62, 0.86, and 0.98 [mu]m) visible by optical microscopy were clearly distinguished in the mass spectral images. A second real world example showed the imaging of trace amounts of cocaine in mouse brain thin tissue sections. Lastly, with use of a lane scanning mode with ~6 [mu]m × ~6 [mu]m data pixels, features in the tissue as small as 15 [mu]m in size could be distinguished in both the mass spectral and optical images.
