Solvent: | tetrahydrofuran (THF) and acetonitrile |
Recipe | Samples were prepared by one of two methods, either deposited by dried droplet or electrosprayed onto a stainless steel target substrate. Approximately 0.3 to 0.5 µL of solution per sample site was placed on the target when samples were prepared by dried droplet. It was helpful to view the target through a stereo microscope (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburg, PA) while depositing the sample solution onto the target. Solution was delivered to the surface using a 5 µL glass capillary pipette (Drummond Scientific, Broomall, PA). Solvent was evaporated at room temperature in still air. No additional measures were taken to speed up or slow the solvent evaporation. |

Recipe | The vortex method involves adding the dry components of the analyte (about 0.1– 0.2 mg), matrix (20–40 mg), and cationization agent (trace to 0.1 mg) to a small glass vial. We typically add the analyte first, followed by the matrix and then the cationization agent, but there is no clear reason why the order of addition would matter to these experiments. Two BBs (premium grade, 4.5 mm Zn plated, ultra smooth, steel air gun shot [manufacture's name given] are then added to the vial. The contents in the vial are mixed on a vortex mixer for 60 s. A small spatula is used to remove a few grains of the mixed sample from the vial and transfer a few grains to the MALDI target. Using the flat edge of the spatula, and moderate pressure, we flatten the grains of material on the target in a circular pattern. This process requires only a few rotations and creates a thin film about 2–3 mm in diameter. Once a thin film is observed on the target, sufficient material is present for the MALDI experiment. Any extra material is removed from the target by gently tapping the target on the benchtop. Apparently the majority of the material originally transferred to the target is removed during tapping. A minority of the material forms the thin film for further analysis. |

Recipe | [Semi-online LC/MALDI-MS sample preparation] Sample solutions of 20 mg/mL were prepared and 100 nL of the solutions were introduced into the sample injector. The eluent flow rate was 1.0 µL/min. The matrix (10 mg/mL) and cationization agent (50 µM) were added at a flow rate of 3.0 µL/min postcolumn to mix with the eluent. [T]he elution tip of the capillary column was fixed and the MALDI sample plate was manually transferred at a defined time interval. The eluate was dropped directly onto the sample plate at 15 s intervals (1 µL/spot) and dried in air at room temperature. The eluate content was 0.25 µL from the column and 0.75 µL from the mixture solvent of a matrix and a cationization agent. In all experiments, THF was used for dissolution of the matrix and the cationization agent. |
