Significantly improved sensitivity for analysis of biomol-ecules by MALDI FT-ICR mass spectrometry is achieved by (i) microscope-monitored sample deposition onto a small indentation on the probe tip and (ii) multiple remeasurement of ions from a single laser shot A simple modification to the solids probe tip allows for microdepo-sition of a few amols of analyte onto small indentation spots previously aligned with the laser beam. Ion multiple remeasurement of the same ion packet enhances the signal-to-noise ratio and thus extends the achievable FT-ICR MS detection limit We demonstrate that FT-ICR can be used to detectparent and structurally significant fragment ions of peptides and phospholipids at low amol amounts. Positive ion mass spectra for~ 90 amol of a mixture of angiotensin II and bradykmin,~ 40 amol of dipalmitoylglycerophosphatidylcholine, and~ 8 amol of substance P constitute the lowest reported detection limits to date for FT-ICR mass analysis of MALDI-generated ions.Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)* 1 and electrospray ionization (ESI) 2 34567891011techniques have revolutionized mass analysis of biomolecules. MALDI-generated ions have been mass-analyzed by time-of-flight instruments typically at relatively low mass resolving power (m/Aw< 1000, in which m is the ion mass and Aw is the mass spectral peak width at a specified fraction of peak maximum height), as well as with magneticsector instruments and quadrupole ion traps. 3 4
