Remote sampling mass spectrometry for dry samples: Sheath‐flow probe electrospray ionization (PESI) using a gel‐loading tip inserted with an acupuncture needle

Rationale Probe electrospray ionization (PESI) is only applicable to liquid or wet samples. In this study, a sheath‐flow PESI method for remote sampling mass spectrometry that can be applied to dry samples was developed.

Zusammenfassung:Rationale Probe electrospray ionization (PESI) is only applicable to liquid or wet samples. In this study, a sheath‐flow PESI method for remote sampling mass spectrometry that can be applied to dry samples was developed. Methods An acupuncture needle (0.12 mm outer diameter, 700 nm tip diameter) was inserted into a gel‐loading tip with a 0.1 mm protrusion out of the tip. Analytes were extracted by filling the latter tip with solvent and softly touching the sample surface for a short time (
