Investigating the Quantitative Nature of MALDI-TOF MS [PDF]
MALDI-TOF MS has been applied by several groups to relative quantitative measurements. At the same time, the non-quantitative character of this method has been widely reported. We conducted experiments to test the reliability of this technique for quantitation using the statistical method of inverse confidence limit calculation for the first time in ...

Lipidomics of intact mitochondria by MALDI-TOF/MS [PDF]
A simple and fast method of lipid analysis of isolated intact mitochondria by means of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry is described. Mitochondria isolated from bovine heart and yeast have been employed to set up and validate the new method of lipid analysis.
