4-Mercaptobenzoic acid as a MALDI matrix for highly sensitive analysis of metals

Abstract

4-Mercaptobenzoic acid (MBA) is introduced as a matrix for laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MS) analysis of metals, exhibiting matrix-interference-free background, greatly enhanced MS signal intensity, and excellent reproducibility. The developed method was successfully extended for the rapid screening and sensitive determination of ultratrace metals in fine particulate matter (PM2.5).
