β¦ Synopsis
Two matrices, 4-phenyl-Ξ±-eyanocinnamic acid (PCC) and 4-benzyloxy-Ξ±-eyanocinnamic acid (BCC), were identified for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) adducts of DNA bases by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization. These matrices were designed based on the concept that the matrix and the analyte should have structural similarities. PCC is a good matrix for the desorption of not only PAH-modified DNA bases, but also PAHs themselves and their metabolites. Detections can be made at the femtomolar level.

A number of different procedures have been developed for use with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI/MS) for the analysis of non-covalent protein-protein complexes. These include use of specific matrix and laser combinations, accumulation of "first shot" spectra, mo
