A tunable Cr:LiSAF laser-pumped optical parametric oscillator was used for mid-infrared matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry experiments. The mass spectra of substance P, bovine insulin and pd(T) 10 in the 2.88-2.96 Β΅m range showed excellent single shot signal qualit

β¦ Synopsis
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization was used for the detection of four base short tandem repeats (STR) for clinical samples using a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Since STR plays an important role in genetic disease and human identification, this work indicates that laser desorption mass spectrometry has the potential to achieve rapid DNA typing for both forensic applications and genetic disease diagnosis.

Protonated molecules of analytes in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) are frequently the most intense ions observed, especially when the concentration of alkali metal cations is low. Examination of the laser desorption mass spectra of MALDI matrices usually shows the presence of bo
Previous modelling of the matrix-assisted laser desorptiodionization (MALDI) process has had to rely on matrix solution optical absorptivities whereas the value for the solid phase is more appropriate. Absorption bands are usually broader for solids than for solutions due to the higher concentration
Neutral and acidic oligosaccharides from human milk were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI/MS). These experiments require suitable matrices; their selection and particularly their preparation protocols must be optimized. Important criteria are sensitivi
Bumetanide was evaluated as a matrix for prompt fragmentation matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) experiments on peptides. Both the MALDI mass spectrum and some physical properties of bumetanide were compared with those of some commonly used matrices. Bumetanide was then evaluated fo
