Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) has been widely used for analyses of biomolecules and industrial materials. Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization (SALDI) is studied to complement the ionization ability for the MALDI/MS. In this study, lab-made mist chemical vapor deposition (mist CVD) system was used to produce metal films as ionization assistance materials for SALDI/MS. The system could give Ag film from inexpensive silver trifluoroacetate solution rapidly and simply under atmospheric pressure. Phosphatidylcholines could be detected high sensitively and diacylglycerols (DAGs) could not be detected in MALDI/MS. In the SALDI/MS and the MS imaging with Ag film by mist CVD, both the phosphatidylcholines and the DAGs could be detected and the localized images. In the Ag film-SALDI/MS of lipids, not only Ag-adducted ions but also Na- and K-adducted ions were detected. The Ag film formed by the mist CVD to act as an ionization-assistance material and a cationization agent in SALDI would be useful in MS imaging of biological tissue sections.
