Over the past few decades, several approaches have been used to image lipids in cells and tissues, but most have limited spatial resolution and sensitivity. Here, we discuss a relatively new approach, nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry imaging, that makes it possible to visualize lipids in cells and tissues in a quantitative fashion and with high spatial resolution and high sensitivity.
在过去几十年里,已经采用了几种方法对细胞和组织中的脂质进行成像,但大多数方法的空间分辨率和灵敏度都有限。在此,我们讨论一种相对较新的方法——纳米级二次离子质谱成像,它能够以定量方式、高空间分辨率和高灵敏度对细胞和组织中的脂质进行可视化。
