Definitions
- the present invention relates to sample plates for mass
- MALDI-ToF MS matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry
- an organic matrix for example, 2 , 6-dihydroxy benzoic acid
- MALDI is typically a two-step process. Rapid heating by
- nanosecond pulsed laser irradiation leads to matrix ablation and evaporation which carries the analytes into the gaseous phase.
- Analyte ion formation can follow several different pathways and often a distinction between matrix ion formation (primary path) and analyte ion formation in the plume (secondary path) can be made. 1,2 Only a very small fraction of desorbed analytes are ionized and ionization yields (in positive mode) depend on various factors such as fluence, analyte basicity, temperature, matrix type etc.
- MALDI-ToF MS has proved invaluable for the analysis of large molecules and for proteomics, the analysis of small molecules for metabolomics , drug discovery and tissue imaging is hampered by the spectral interference of matrix-derived species of masses below 700Da.
- MALDI- ToF MS for co-crystallization and solubility of analyte and matrix have motivated the search for alternatives based on soft laser desorption ionization.
- SALDI-MS surface assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry
- WO 2004/113924 relates to a method of capturing peptide from gels onto surfaces formed from polycarbonate or polyester that can then be studied using mass spectroscopy.
- WO 2006/083151 relates to sample plates formed from etched and coated substrates.
- Stainless steel is the only form of steel mentioned.
- WO 2007/133724 describes chips for use in mass spectroscopy with self-assembled monolayers and capture agents for binding to analyte.
- the substrate on which the layers are assembled can be metallic; the only metals specified are gold and silver.
- US 2004/024545 relates to LDI sample plates coated with a thin layer of carbon.
- the underlying substrate can be metallic, but only conventional stainless steel and gold coated steel plates are described.

- weathering steel is understood in the art and describes a group of steel alloys that, owing to their alloy content, exhibit increased resistance to atmospheric corrosion through the formation of a corrosion resistant oxide patina. Weathering steels are also often referred to as atmospheric corrosion resistant steels, self-protecting steels, self-passivating steels, and weather resistant steels.
- Weathering steels are low alloy steels. Commonly used alloying elements include nickel, copper, chromium, phosphorous, silicon and calcium, although other alloying elements, including
- manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, sulphur and rare earth elements may also be used.
- Preferred alloying combinations may include Cu-Cr and Cu-Cr-P- (Ni ) .
- the weathering steel is a weathering steel comprising one or more of the following alloying elements in the composition percentage range given: carbon (0 - 0.2%), silicon (0 - 1%), manganese

- the present inventors have found that the surface formed in this passivation process desorbs and ionizes adsorbed analytes under irradiation with a laser at 355nm very efficiently without the addition of any organic matrix compound. No use for matrix-free desorption ionization employing this material as a sample plate has been reported before. Studies have shown that the rust on some weathering steels can be divided into two different layers, an outer layer with a- and ⁇ -FeOOH phases and an protective inner layer with enriched Cu and P content, which is and a nanometric mesh of FeOOH.
- this protective inner layer is primarily composed of nanometric Cr-goethite crystals "containing surface-adsorbed and/or inter- granular CrO x 3 ⁇ 2x complex anions" 28 within Fe(0,OH) 6 network leads to a distortion of the rust structure. 29

Abstract
La présente invention concerne des plaques pour échantillon destinées à une spectrométrie de masse à désorption-ionisation laser (LDI) assistée par matrice ayant des surfaces pour échantillon constituées d'acier résistant aux intempéries. En particulier, des plaques de feuilles d'acier résistant aux intempéries découpées et polies peuvent être employées en tant que plaques pour échantillon en vue de l'analyse sensible d'une large plage d'analytes par spectrométrie de masse à désorption-ionisation laser assistée par matrice. Les aciers résistant aux intempéries sont des aciers faiblement alliés qui sont protégés contre la corrosion grâce à la formation d'une maille d'oxyde de fer et/ou d'hydroxyde nanostructurée ou autre nanostructure. L'acier résistant aux intempéries est disponible dans le commerce, de coût relativement faible et montre, pour les utilisations et procédés de la présente invention, une bonne stabilité par rapport au stockage, un faible coût de production et de faibles niveaux d'ions de fond.
