Development of a Matrix Sublimation Device with Controllable Crystallization Temperature for MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging

The size and distribution of matrix crystals deposited on the surface of a tissue section play a key role in the performance of MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI). In this study, uniform distribution and a restricted size of matrix crystals were achieved via a homemade matrix sublimation de...

Zusammenfassung:The size and distribution of matrix crystals deposited on the surface of a tissue section play a key role in the performance of MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI). In this study, uniform distribution and a restricted size of matrix crystals were achieved via a homemade matrix sublimation device with controllable crystallization temperature. The crystallization temperature was stably controlled at a subzero temperature, and homogeneous matrix crystals with diameters
