Abstract:
This work investigates the applicability of fast detectors to the technique of microscope-mode imaging mass spectrometry. By ionising analyte from a large area of the sample, and projecting the desorbed ions by the use of ion optics through a time-of-flight mass spectrometer onto a two- dimensional detector, time- (and hence mass-) dependent distributions of ions may be imaged. To date, this method of imaging mass spectrometry has been limited by the ability to image only one mass window of interest per experimental cycle, limiting throughput and processing speed. Thus, the alternative micropr

Protein‐ion interactions play an important role in biological systems. A considerable number of elements (estimated 25 – 30) are essential in higher life forms such as animals and humans, where they are integral part of enzymes involved in plethora of cellular processes. It is difficult to overestimate the importance of thorough understanding of how protein‐ion interplay affects living cell in order to be able to address therapeutic challenges facing humanity.

From small molecules to macromolecules, mass spectrometry has evolved significantly over the past decade, progressing from a tool to identify chemical elements to a powerful technique able to elucidate structural information for large protein complexes.

One biological system that has benefitted enormously from such advances is the study of

A promising new approach for studying cold ion-molecule chemical reactions is the combination of laser- or sympathetically-cooled trapped ions and slow-moving molecules from a cold molecule source, such as a quadrupole velocity selector or a Stark decelerator. Previous reaction studies using trapped atomic ions and slow molecules from a quadrupole velocity selector were able to reach average collision energies as low as 1 K. However, the guided molecules had an approximately room temperature rotational energy distribution, so the reactions studied were not truly cold. Thus, a new molecular sou

Proteomic studies aim to identify, quantify and characterise the full complement of proteins in a cell or organism under a defined set of conditions, and are important to our understanding of cellular mechanisms.

ABSTRACT. The main aim of the research presented in this dissertation is to develop a novel imaging mass spectrometry technique that uses molecular desorption induced by heavy ions accelerated to kinetic energies in the MeV/u regime. Upon impact with a sample, heavy ions accelerated above the Bohr velocity deposit their energy predominantly through electronic stopping and this has been shown to produce high sputtering yields from an insulating sample's surface. This interaction has been traditionally called electronic sputtering and was first put to analytical use many decades ago by a techniq

The other is control and influence over making and breaking of bonds, in particular long and weak bonds, during this journey into the mass spectrometer.
