This review discusses advances in the field of ambient sampling/ionization mass
spectrometry (“ambient MS” for short) with a focus on mechanistic and instrumentation …

Dried blood spots (DBS) typically consist in the deposition of small volumes of capillary
blood onto dedicated paper cards. Comparatively to whole blood or plasma samples, their …

Methods To address these aims we performed a key word search of the PubMed and
MEDLINE online databases in conjunction with individual manual searches to gather …

This literature review highlights recent advances and challenges in applying dried blood
spots (DBS) as a cumulative technique for sample acquisition, transport, archiving, and …

Label-free spatial mapping of the noncovalent interactions of proteins in their tissue
environment has the potential to revolutionize life sciences research by providing …

Dried blood spots have become a popular method in a variety of micro blood-sampling
techniques in the life sciences sector, consequently competing with the field of conventional …

Mass spectrometry (MS) is a formidable analytical tool for the analysis of non-polar to polar
compounds individually and/or from mixtures, providing information on the molecular …

While a number of assays for soluble analytes have been developed using paper-based
microfluidic devices, the detection and analysis of blood cells has remained an outstanding …

Direct sampling mass spectrometry (MS) has been advancing aggressively, showing
immense potential in translating MS into the clinical field. Unlike traditional MS analysis …

Previously we have shown that liquid extraction surface analysis (LESA) mass spectrometry
is suitable for the analysis of intact proteins from a range of biological substrates. Here we …
