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 ยตm range showed excellent single shot signal qualit

Continuous flow matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) was demonstrated with infrared laser desorption and an ethanol matrix. A capillary was used to deliver an analyte solution dissolved in ethanol to a metal frit embedded in a sample stage. Typical flow rates were 1.7&mgrL/min. An opt

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
A new matrix consisting of a binary mixture of a-cyano-4-hydroxyannamic acid and 5amino-quinoline has been deveioped specifically for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) analysis on magnetic sector mass spectrometers with point detectors. The major benefit of this matrix is that it i
