Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a molecular imaging technique that maps the distribution of molecules in biological tissues with high spatial resolution. The most widely used MSI modality is matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), mainly due to the large variety of analyte classes...
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a molecular imaging technique that maps the distribution of molecules in biological tissues with high spatial resolution. The most widely used MSI modality is matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), but some organic matrices used in classical MALDI ...
Detailed characterization of complex biological surfaces by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) requires instrumentation that is capable of high mass resolving power, mass accuracy and dynamic range. Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass sp...
Tapping into the metabolic cross-talk between a host and its virus can reveal unique strategies employed during infection. Viral infection is a dynamic process that generates an evolving metabolic landscape. Gaining a continuous view into the infection process is highly challenging and is limited...
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) visualises molecular distributions throughout tissues but is blind to dynamic metabolic processes. Here, MSI with high mass resolution together with multiple stable isotope labelling provided spatial analyses of phosphatidylcholine (PC) metabolism in mouse lungs. D...
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) in sedimentary archives can produce records of molecular proxies at μm-scale resolution. For example, in annually varved sediments of the Santa Barbara Basin, such a fine resolution allows deciphering sub-annual distributions of archaeal tetraether lipids, haptophy...
