IMSC – Murray Mass Spectrometry Group

Research group of Kermit Murray at Louisiana State University where we use lasers for sampling and imaging and study the chemistry and physics of laser ablation.

IMSC 2018: Infrared Laser Ablation Microsampling Coupled with MALDI Imaging

International Mass Spectrometry Conference, Florence, Italy, August 28, 2018 Louisiana State University: Kermit K. Murray, Fabrizio Donnarumma, Kelin Wang, Carson W. Szot, Chao Dong,Baylor University: Touradj Solouki, Michael E. Pettit Introduction Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a powerful method for determining the location of biomolecules in tissue; however, protein identification and …

IMSC 2018: Combined Infrared and Ultraviolet Ablation Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

International Mass Spectrometry Conference, Florence, Italy, August 27, 2018 Kermit K. Murray, Remi O. Lawal, and Fabrizio Donnarumma Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA Introduction We are using combined mid-infrared and deep-ultraviolet two-laser ablation coupled with electrospray ionization for ambient mass spectrometry of biomolecules in tissue. The goal is to increase nanoparticle production and improve …
