MALDI-MSI of Peptide Tissue Profiles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MSI was performed using a RapifleX MALDI Tissuetyper time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics). A peptide calibration standard mix (bradykinin, angiotensin II, angiotensin I, substance P, bombesin, ACTH clip 1–17, ACTH clip 18–39, and somatostatin 28 (Bruker Daltonics)) was used for external calibration. Each spectrum was automatically generated at a spatial resolution of 50 µm using flexControl (Bruker Daltonics) in the mass range of m/z = 600–3200. 500 laser shots were acquired for each spectrum at 1 kHz, with a laser power of 65–80%. The measurement regions were defined using flexImaging (Bruker Daltonics). Following the MSI measurements, matrix was removed by two washes in 99.99% methanol (Carl Roth GmbH, Karlsruhe, Germany) for 2 min each, followed by two washings in 99.99% ethanol (Carl Roth GmbH) for 10 s.

Mass spectra were acquired in positive linear or reflector mode using either a Voyager DE STR matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation mass spectrometer (Applied Biosystems, Warrington, UK) or a Bruker Ultraflex mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonic GmbH, Bremen, Germany). Samples were mixed with equal volumes of either α-Cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (10 mg/ml in 70% acetonitrile, 0.1% TFA) or 2,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (10 mg/ml in 20% acetonitrile, 1% formic acid) on the MALDI sample plate and allowed to air-dry.
External calibration was conducted using a calibration mixture containing des-Argbradykinin, angiotensin1, Glu-fibrinopeptide B, and neurotensin (Applied Biosystems) or angiotensin I, angiotensin II, substance P, bombesin, ACTH clip 1-17 , ACTH clip 18-39 and somatostatin 28 (Bruker Daltonics). Masses are shown as average masses [M+H] + for analyses performed in linear mode and monoisotopic masses for analyses in reflector mode.

MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry Proteomics Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MALDI-TOF MS was performed using an autoflex MALDI reflectron TOF mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics) as describe previously [14] (link). Each sample (0.5 mL, representing ∼5% of the total digest volume) was mixed with 0.5 mL of the matrix (CHCA, 10 mg/mL in 50% ACN/0.1% TFA), spotted onto the MS plate, and air dried. The samples were analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS operating in the delayed extraction/reflectron/positive ion detection mode with an accelerating voltage of 15 kV and a 499 ns delay. A nitrogen laser (337 nm) was used to irradiate the sample, and a mass spectrum was acquired in the mass range 800–3,000 Da. The instrument was externally calibrated using five peptide standards (MH1: Angiotensin II, 1046.5420 Da; Angiotensin I, 1296.6853 Da; Substance P, 1347.7361 Da; Bombesin, 1619.823 Da; and ACTH clip 18–39, 2465.199 Da) from Bruker or internally calibrated with autodigest peaks of trypsin (MH1: 2163.057 Da, 2273.160 Da). ACTH was also used as an internal lock mass at m/z 2465.199 when added to the matrix at 100 fmol/mL.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
