Title: Imaging mass spectrometer with mass tags

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1082659
; ; ; ;

A method of analyzing biological material by exposing the biological material to a recognition element, that is coupled to a mass tag element, directing an ion beam of a mass spectrometer to the biological material, interrogating at least one region of interest area from the biological material and producing data, and distributing the data in plots.
