On‐tissue chemical derivatization in mass spectrometry imaging

Latent fingerprint chemical imaging by mass spectrometry.

Latent fingerprints (LFPs) potentially contain more forensic information than the simple identification of the subject; they may contain evidence of contacts with explosives or substances of abuse. Chemical information can also be useful in resolving overlapping LFPs from different individuals. We used desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in an imaging mode to record compound-sp...

Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass/Mass Spectrometry for the Quantification of Fudosteine in Human Serum without Precolumn Derivatization

A quantitative analysis method for fudosteine in human serum by high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI/MS/MS) was established, which shows high sensitivity and selectivity. The mobile phase composition was 75% 20 mM acetic acid and 25% acetonitril, which was pumped at a flow rate of 0.40 mL/min. The overall chromatographic run time was ...

Derivatization in mass spectrometry --7. On-line derivatisation/degradation.

The review describes on-line derivatization/degradation methods employed in mass spectrometry to solve some structural and analytical problems. Advantages and applications of various positions of reaction systems connected mainly to a mass spectrometer or a gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer are considered. Among these are reaction systems connected directly to the mass spectrometer (reaction ...
