“…[12][13][14] The development of ESI techniques with solid substrates has taken place since ESI with copper wires was developed in the late 1990s. ESI using wooden tips (common toothpicks) is readily available with very low costs and can be directly mounted on a nanoESI device without hardware modication, 18 showing that wooden-tips could be used for many applications due to their convenient sampling and rapid analysis, e.g., pharmaceutical analysis, 23 metabolite analysis, 24,25 forensic analysis, 26 and plant identication.
