Book Fundamental Study and Method Development for Surface based Laser Desorption Ionization Imaging Mass Spectrometry

Download or read book Fundamental Study and Method Development for Surface based Laser Desorption Ionization Imaging Mass Spectrometry written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By providing both the chemical identity and the spatial organization of each component in biological samples, Imaging Mass Spectrometry (IMS) becomes an emerging tool in clinic and pharmacological study. Most work in IMS has been focused on protein and peptide mapping in biological samples to take advantage of effective analyte ionization in MALDI-MS, and also partially due to the limitation of MALDI-MS in small molecule detection. The focus of my research is to develop novel tools to image spatial distribution of small molecules in biological samples. A surface-based mass spectrometric imaging method, i.e. Desorption/Ionization on Silicon (DIOS), was used for biological surface analysis in the concept-proof investigation. More over, possible proton transferring pathways and impact of local chemical environment have been systematically investigated in the fundamental understanding of ionization mechanism of SALDI-MS. Based on the finding on the SALDI mechanism, a hybrid ionization approach, ME-SALDI has been developed by combing the strength of the conventional MALDI matrix and SALDI, where the improved detection sensitivity with reduced matrix-analyte interference and the improved imaging capability through analysis of mouse brain and heart sections has been demonstrated. In addition, the impact of vacuum stability of matrix in ME-SALDI-IMS applications has been examined. A solvent free, homogenous and reproducible sublimation method has been developed for ionic matrix in ME-SALDI, by which improved vacuum stability and MS detection have been achieved. Furthermore, a new generation of meso-porous oxide substrate was developed as a novel ME-SALDI substrate with a superior storage stability, extended detectable mass range and robust substrate preparation.

Book Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry Based on Nanophotonic Structure  From Material Design to Mechanistic Understanding

Download or read book Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry Based on Nanophotonic Structure From Material Design to Mechanistic Understanding written by Moon-Ju Kim and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-11 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents innovative laser desorption ionization (LDI)-active nanophotonic structures for addressing the challenges that matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) is currently facing and for enhancing LDI efficiency. It presents a variety of cutting-edge nanophotonic structures to satisfy the mass-analytical needs of sensitivity, reproducibility, and quantification. As opposed to the commercialized, conventional organic matrix used in MALDI-MS, these nanostructures are validated to be highly effective in detecting small metabolites and drugs, highlighting their considerable potential in the mass spectrometry field. It also systematically elucidates fundamental LDI processes in terms of the photo-thermal, electronic, and structural characteristics of nanophotonic structures, offering mechanistic knowledge of LDI-MS. Even though LDI-MS performance is heavily influenced by a number of nanostructure parameters, relatively little is known about the LDI processes associated with those characteristics. An in-depth understanding of nanostructure characteristics and LDI mechanisms thus paves the way for more effective, rational design and development of nanostructures with improved LDI capabilities. Further, with a focus on multiple cascades in nanostructure functions in response to laser pulse stimuli, this book provides detailed, step-by-step procedures to design and construct a nanophotonic, LDI-active platform, which may serve as a roadmap for graduate students in the field of mass spectrometry. Readers, including graduate students, researchers, and experts working in the related areas of mass spectrometry, nanophotonics, and material science and material engineering, will find a wealth of useful information in this book.

Book Development of Matrix assisted Laser Desorption ionization and Liquid Chromatography   Electrospray Ionization Based Mass Spectrometric Techniques for Characterizing and Quantifying Endogenous and Therapeutic Biomolecules

Download or read book Development of Matrix assisted Laser Desorption ionization and Liquid Chromatography Electrospray Ionization Based Mass Spectrometric Techniques for Characterizing and Quantifying Endogenous and Therapeutic Biomolecules written by Bingming Chen and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endogenous biomolecules, such as neuropeptide, protein and carbohydrates, play important roles in biological and physiological processes. Over the last two decades, therapeutic biomolecules, including therapeutic peptides, proteins and monoclonal antibodies, have become large and fast-growing segments of the pharmaceutical industry. However, analyzing biomolecules is challenging due to their large size, complex structure and various modifications. In situ analysis of biomolecules is even more challenging due to the large dynamic range and complex microenvironments on tissue surface. In this dissertation, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and liquid chromatography (LC) -- electrospray ionization (ESI) based mass spectrometric techniques were developed to characterize and quantify endogenous and therapeutic biomolecules. Specifically, this work developed novel ionization techniques and mass spectrometry imaging workflows to study the sequence and in situ distribution of biomolecules on high resolution accurate mass instrument platforms. Moreover, absolute or relative quantifications of biomolecules, such as therapeutic peptide or N-glycans, were measured by cutting-edge quantification workflows. In summary, this work not only improves current analytical methodology for characterizing biomolecules, but also demonstrates its potential applications in pharmaceutical industry and clinical settings.
