Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a sample carrier having a plurality of MALDI matrix dots, a sheet obtainable by the method according to the invention and a long-term stable sheet.
  • mass spectrometry For the analysis of samples, for example in drug chemistry or in biological research and production, mass spectrometry has become increasingly popular. For the analysis of biomolecules in the samples, mass spectrometry with ionization by matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization (MALDI) is preferably used.
  • MALDI matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization
  • Sample carriers with MALDI points are for example from the WO 00/67293 known.
  • the MALDI matrix dots are produced according to the prior art by applying the matrix substance as a solution in the form of a drop of liquid to a sample carrier and drying it there. Particularly in the case of series tests in which in some cases more than 200 MALDI matrix points have to be applied to the sample carrier, this method is very complicated despite automation techniques. In addition, the MALDI matrix points are not uniform in shape and are not homogeneous in themselves. Furthermore, the position of the matrix points on the sample carrier is relatively inaccurate. In order to prevent a running into each other of two adjacent points, their distance must be selected to be correspondingly large.
  • the object is achieved according to the invention with a process for producing a sheet, preferably a sample carrier, with a plurality of MALDI matrix points, in which the MALDI matrix points applied by precipitation of the MALDI matrix substance from the gas phase on the sample carrier become.
  • the MALDI matrix points can have any shape. They are very reproducible to produce, very homogeneous and have a surface structure, which can be achieved with very good mass spectra.
  • a sheet in the context of the invention is any desired shaped body with an arbitrarily shaped surface.
  • the sheet is a plate with a flat surface, most preferably a sample carrier, but preferably has no indentations.
  • the sheet of the invention is a film.
  • a MALDI matrix point in the sense of the invention essentially consists of at least one MALDI matrix substance known to the person skilled in the art.
  • Preferred MALDI matrix substances are 3-hydroxypicolinic acid, ⁇ -cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, sinapinic acid, 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone, nitrobenzyl alcohol, nicotinic acid, ferulic acid, caffeic acid, 2-aminobenzoic acid, picolinic acid, 3-aminobenzoic acid, 2,3,4-trihydroxyacetophenone, 6-aza-2-thiothymidine, urea, succinic acid, adipic acid, malonic acid or a mixture thereof.
  • the MALDI matrix substance is ⁇ -cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid.
  • the MALDI matrix substance selected is a compound which sublimes on the sheet and is visible to the human eye.
  • the MALDI matrix points are generated by precipitation of the MALDI matrix substance from the gas phase.
  • Precipitation from the gas phase in the context of the invention is any method in which the MALDI matrix substance is transferred from the gas phase to the sheet. Examples include condensation or sublimation.
  • the application of the MALDI matrix dots to the sheet occurs by sublimation.
  • Sublimation in the sense of the invention involves the MALDI matrix substance being transferred as a solid into the gas phase and / or deposited in the form of a solid from the gas phase on the sheet.
  • the sublimation preferably takes place in vacuo. Particularly preferably, the solid is heated to sublimation.
  • a plurality of MALDI matrix substances are more preferably used in parallel or sequentially.
  • the MALDI matrix substances can be used to produce different MALDI matrix points.
  • a MALDI matrix point it is also conceivable for a MALDI matrix point to have a substructure, for example subdots which are present separately from one another, each of which is composed of a different MALDI matrix substance.
  • a substructure may also be, for example, concentric circular rings, each consisting of a different MALDI matrix substance.
  • the sample carrier is preferably covered by the gaseous phase, particularly preferably the sublimation, by a shaped body, a so-called mask, which has through-cut recesses. Only in the area of these recesses does the MALDI matrix substance settle on the sheet, forming a MALDI matrix point or partial point.
  • This mask can have any number of recesses, which can have any shape.
  • the recesses may be round, rectangular, square, triangular or oval, to name but a small number of the possible shapes.
  • the shape can be used to distinguish the respective MALDI matrix substances on a sheet.
  • the sheet may also be originally covered by multiple masks, which are then removed one after the other be applied, for example, to different areas of the sheet according to the invention different MALDI matrix substances.
  • the mask has further recesses with which information can be transmitted to the fabric.
  • the MALDI matrix substance settles on the sheet, so that the information is visible there.
  • Examples of information in the context of the invention are the labeling of the rows and columns of a grid, abbreviation for the MALDI matrix substance used but also adjustment points that allow an exact adjustment of the fabric in the corresponding analyzer.
  • the MALDI matrix points preferably have an area of 1 ⁇ m 2 -10 mm 2 . On such a surface, a drop of liquid can settle and preferably anchored so that it does not dissolve itself hanging down from the sheet according to the invention.
  • the MALDI matrix points are arranged along an exact grid, which allows easy control of metering and / or analyzing machines.
  • the MALDI matrix points can have any shape. Examples of possible shapes are rectangular, square, triangular or oval.
  • the shape of the MALDI matrix points can be used to distinguish them, because the shape can be seen, for example, under a microscope in the mass spectrometer during the analysis. For example, a particular form may be associated with a particular MALDI matrix substance.
  • a MALDI matrix point has a substructure. This substructure may consist of a plurality of mutually isolated partial points, which preferably each consist of a different MALDI matrix substance. The substructure may also have a plurality of concentric circular rings.
  • the embodiment having a plurality of partial points has the advantage that a single drop of a substance to be analyzed, which is brought into contact with the MALDI matrix point, simultaneously wets several partial points and thus at a MALDI matrix point investigations with several different matrix Substances can be performed.
  • the MALDI matrix dots or partial dots represent regions which are more wettable than their environment and which are each completely enclosed by a less wettable, preferably ultraphobic, region.
  • a less wettable, preferably ultraphobic, region By this embodiment, it is possible to deposit a drop of liquid at a very specific location and anchor there comparatively firmly.
  • the crystalline structure of the MALDI matrix points or partial points preferably has a crystallite size ⁇ 1 ⁇ m.
  • This preferred embodiment of the present invention has the advantage, for example, that the MALDI matrix points are dissolved very well and uniformly by the substance to be tested and / or that a very good signal results.
  • Ultraphob in the sense of the invention means that the contact angle of a drop of water and / or oil lying on an ultraphobic surface is more than 150 °, preferably more than 160 ° and most preferably more than 170 ° and / or the rolling angle 10 ° does not exceed.
  • the roll-off angle is understood to be the angle of inclination of a basically flat but structured surface against the horizontal, in which a stationary drop of water and / or oil with a volume of 10 ⁇ l is moved due to gravity at an inclination of the surface.
  • Such ultraphobic surfaces are for example in WO 98/23549 . WO 96/04123 . WO 96/21523 . WO 00/39369 . WO 00/39368 . WO 00/39239 . WO 00/39051 . WO 00/38845 and WO 96/34697 which are hereby incorporated by reference and thus considered part of the disclosure.

  • a multilayer sheet having a first layer with an ultraphobic surface and a carrier layer is suitable, the first layer being reversibly applied to the carrier layer and the maximum local deviation of the sheet from the flatness being ⁇ 100 ⁇ m, more preferably ⁇ 20 ⁇ m on a length of 100 mm.
  • This sheet has the advantage that the first layer with the ultraphobic surface can be detached from the carrier layer after a single or multiple use and can be replaced by a new first layer, so that it is precluded that this first layer has been contaminated by previous experiments ,
  • the first layer with the ultraphobic surface is particularly inexpensive to produce as a disposable article.
  • the flatness defined according to the invention ensures that the fabric can be used in all conventional mass spectrometric and / or optical analysis devices.
  • the first layer is adhered to the carrier layer.
  • the sheet according to the invention can be used in a variety of ways, but it is preferably suitable for mass spectroscopic and / or optical analyzes.
  • the mixture was then pre-pickled in H 3 PO 4 (100 g / l) for 20 seconds, rinsed in distilled water for 30 seconds and in a mixture of HCl / H 3 BO 3 ( 4 g / l each) at 35 ° C. and 120 mA / cm 2 at 35 V AC electrochemically pickled.
  • the thus treated sheet was coated with a about 50nm thick gold layer by sputtering under high vacuum.
