Conspectus Lipids have pivotal roles in many biological processes, including energy
storage, signal transduction, and plasma membrane formation. A disruption of lipid …

In recent years, mass spectrometry (MS) is increasingly attracting interests for clinical
applications, which also calls for technical innovations to make a transfer of MS from …

There is a growing need for chemical analyses to be performed in the field, at the point of
need. Tools and techniques often found in analytical chemistry laboratories are necessary in …

Mass spectrometry (MS) has become a powerful technique for clinical applications with high
sensitivity and specificity. Different from conventional MS diagnosis in laboratory, point‐of …

Tissue microarrays (TMAs) are commonly used for the rapid analysis of large numbers of
tissue samples, often in morphological assessments but increasingly in spectroscopic …

The activities of modern society are centered on an obsessive relationship with time, where
we put emphasis on speed. Therefore, turnaround times (also response times or waiting …

The development of miniature mass spectrometry (MS) systems with simple analysis
procedures is important for the transition of applying MS analysis outside traditional …

Disorder of lipid homeostasis is closely associated with a variety of diseases. Although mass
spectrometry (MS) approaches have been well developed for the characterization of lipids, it …

The diagnosis of bladder cancer (BC) is currently based on cystoscopy, which is invasive
and expensive. Here, we describe a noninvasive profiling method for carbonyl metabolic …

Conventional mass spectrometry does not distinguish between enantiomers, or mirror-
image isomers. Here we report a technique to break the chiral symmetry and to differentiate …
