Multiplexed electrospray is a promising aerosol technique to achieve both high throughput and unique advantages of the electrospray such as monodispersity and small droplet size down to nanometer range. Here we study the interaction and overall deposition pattern of multiplexed electrosprays. First, we derived an approximate model for the profile of a single electrospray subjected to its own sp...

MALDI MSI has been recently applied as an innovative tool for detection of molecular distribution within a specific tissue. MALDI MSI requires deposition of an organic compound, known as matrix, on the tissue of interest to assist analyte desorption and ionization, in which the matrix crystal homogeneity and size greatly influence the imaging reproducibility and spatial resolution in MALDI MSI....

Current development in catalyst discovery includes combinatorial synthesis methods for the rapid generation of compound libraries combined with high-throughput performance-screening methods to determine the associated activities. Of these novel methodologies, mass spectrometry (MS) based flow chemistry methods are especially attractive due to the ability to combine sensitive detection of the fo...

The possible involvement of "hidden" kinetic intermediates in the apparent two-state folding of some proteins is currently a matter of debate. This study uses time-resolved electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry with on-line pulsed hydrogen-deuterium exchange (HDX) for monitoring the refolding of acid/methanol-denatured ubiquitin. It is demonstrated that the ESI charge-state distributi...
