MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging of Lipids on Free-Floating Brain Sections and Immunohistochemically Colocalized Markers of Neurodegeneration

Language English Country United States Media print

Document type Journal Article, Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't

In mass spectrometry imaging (MSI), the essential steps in sample preparation include collection and storage. The most widely used preservation procedure for MSI consists in freezing samples and storing them at temperatures below -80 °C. On the other hand, the most common method for preserving biological samples in clinical practice is their fixation in paraformaldehyde. The storage of free-floating sections is a particular type of the preservation of paraformaldehyde-fixed tissues that is used in immunohistochemistry. This chapter describes the approach of the multimodal imaging of free-floating brain sections using the MSI of lipids and the immunohistochemistry of neurodegeneration markers.
