Fully-automated Matrix Preparation New technology: vibrational vaporization In the ImagePrep station, a matrix aerosol is created by vibrational vaporization under controlled conditions that is gently deposited onto tissue sections. An average droplet size of ~20 µm is generated, all droplet diameters are < 50 µm. 0,1 mm Reproducibility and quality control 2 mm Density of MALDI matrix layer as a function of the number of spray cycles (10 – 70 cycles). Center: Droplet Distribution of a single spray cycle. “Push-button” matrix application The ImagePrep is a Matrix Deposition Device for MALDI...

A lateral resolution of 50 μm was observed in an Alzheimer rat model, identical to the spot raster used. This result suggests that even higher resolutions can be achieved.
