According to method A, the sample was mixed with synthetic matrix solution in a ratio of 1 2 and placed on a target plate.
Then 500 μL of 7.5 mg/mL α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA) matrix solution in 50%acetonitrile/0.1%1 % trifluoroacetic acid was sprayed stepwise onto the tissue sections by using an Aztek airbrush model A4709 (Testor Corp., Rockford, IL), releasing short puffs of matrix solution interrupted with 3 5 s dwell time.
To characterize ionization properties, a dilution series of tamoxifen (0.001 10 µg/mL) was applied on a MALDI target plate and dried droplet sample spots were prepared by adding 1 µL of 3.5 mg/mL α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA, from Sigma-Aldrich, St . Louis MO matrix solution in 50 % acetonitrile (AcN /0.1 % trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) to 1 µL tamoxifen solution.
Peptide digests were concentrated on C18-Zip Tips (Millipore) and eluted with 1.5 µl α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid matrix solution (in 50% acetonitrile, 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid) onto a MALDI-TOF target plate Opti-TOFF 384 well Insert, Applied Biosystems).
Column effluent was mixed 1∶1 with 2 mg/ml CHCA matrix solution in 60% acetonitrile and 0.1% TFA with 2 nM angiotensin II (MW 1045.53 Da) and 4 nM ACTH (MW 2464.19 Da) (Sigma, Zwijndrecht, The Netherlands) as standards for internal mass calibration.
