Abstract
Laser diode thermal desorption coupled with tandem mass spectrometry systems and methods are described to detect at least one target analyte in a sample by negative ion mode mass spectrometry. For instance, the system and method involve desorbing a sample prepared for mass spectrometry analysis by laser diode thermal desorption to obtain a desorbed sample, and then ionizing the desorbed sample under conditions to generate an ionized analyte flow comprising a superoxide radical anion (O.) adduct detectable by negative ion mode mass spectrometry; and then detecting the O.adduct by negative ion mode mass spectrometry, to thereby detect the target analyte.
