DESCRIPTION:The introduction of electrospray ionization (ESI) 
 and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (M
 ALDI) for the mass spectrometric analysis of pepti
 des and proteins had a dramatic impact on biochemi
 stry. Sarah developed a new ionization technique t
 hat allows a wide variety of compounds\, including
  peptides\, proteins\, and protein complexes to be
  transported directly from a solid-state small mol
 ecule matrix to gas-phase ions when placed into th
 e vacuum of a mass spectrometer without the use of
  high voltage\, a laser\, or added heat. This matr
 ix and vacuum assisted soft ionization method is s
 uitable for the direct surface analysis of biologi
 cal materials\, including tissue\, via mass spectr
 ometry.\n
