This work evaluates the potential of new water cluster-based ion beams for improving the capabilities of secondary ion mass spectrometry for in situ lipidomics. It found that using water clusters with carbon dioxide can lead to a more substantial signal increase in positive ion mode. Additionally, the use of water primary ion beam allowed ToF-SIMS results to approach those from MALDI, enabling the imaging of LPC lipids and other lipids that have been difficult to detect during SIMS analyses.
This work assesses the potential of new water cluster-based ion beams for improving the capabilities of secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) for in situ lipidomics. The effect of water clusters was compared to carbon dioxide clusters, along with the effect of using pure water clusters compared to mixed water and carbon dioxide clusters. A signal increase was found when using pure water clusters. However, when analyzing cells, a more substantial signal increase was found in positive ion mode when the water clusters also contained carbon dioxide, suggesting that additional reactions are in play. The effects of using a water primary ion beam on a more complex sample were investigated by analyzing brain tissue from an Alzheimer's disease transgenic mouse model. The results indicate that the ToF-SIMS results are approaching those from MALDI as ToF-SIMS was able to image lyso-phosphocholine (LPC) lipids, a lipid class that for a long time has eluded detection during SIMS analyses. Gangliosides, sulfatides, and cholesterol were also imaged.
