Abstract

Coupling laser post-ionisation with a high resolving power MALDI Orbitrap mass spectrometer has realised an up to B100-fold increase in the sensitivity and enhanced the chemical coverage for MALDI-MS imaging of lipids relative to conventional MALDI. This could constitute a major breakthrough for biomedical research.
