Separation of fingerprint constituents using magnetic silica nanoparticles and direct on-particle SALDI-TOF-mass spectrometry by Lim, Angelina Yimei, Ma, Zhun, Ma, Jan, Rowell, Frederick

“…Intrinsically magnetisable versions of the hydrophobic particles act as magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) materials which are used to selectively adsorb analytes within a mixture deposited onto a surface, transfer the adsorbed components using a magnetic wand and to deposit the particles at a site adjacent to that of the original mixture. Non-adsorbed components remain at the original site. …”
