Atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization
From Mass Spec Terms
| DRAFT DEFINITION | 
| Atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization | 
|---|
| Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization in which the sample target is at atmospheric pressure and the ions formed by the pulsed laser are sampled through a small aperture into the mass spectrometer. | 
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission | 
| This is an unofficial draft definition presented for information and comment. |
