Comprehensive Molecular Distribution Measurement by Imaging Mass Spectrometry
Imaging Mass Spectrometry (IMS) is a measurement technique that can capture the distribution of substances on the surface of a sample by simultaneously measuring molecular mass and position information. Though, the spatial resolution of conventional scanning-type IMS is limited to about 10 - 100 μm. Therefore, we are developing new projection-type IMS, in which spatial resolution of 1 μm can be achieved for cellular-scale observation. In this seminar, we will introduce the latest research results and instrument development, including a case study of whole-body molecular dynamics with spatial resolution of 2 μm scale using a small fish.
