“…This integrated AIMS platform allows the selective capturing of phosphopeptides and cis-diol biomolecules or target proteins from complex matrices on the arbitrarily predesigned BAAs via affinity interactions ranging from coordination chemistry, covalent bonding to biological recognition, followed by successively extraction, ionization, and MS readout of the captured target species within seconds after minimum sample pretreatment. Unlike the conventional SPME-MS, in which one SPME tip (fiber, 44 paper, 45,46 Al foil 47 or coated blade 34,35 ) only affords the extraction and spray of a single sample, the BAAs integrated in one slide augment the throughput of biological sample handling by continuous manipulation of tens of samples. In this sense, with the arsenal of affinity probes in hand, the BAAs can be easily customized to implement the MS analysis of desired target proteins/peptides.…”
