MALDI Consumables

fleXmatrix™ kits enable easy and convenient preparation of matrix solutions for use in MALDI Imaging. Delivered in convenient portion sizes, fleXmatrix™ simplifies and speeds up sample preparation. Different kits are available for the MALDI Imaging analysis of lipids, peptides, and proteins, and specialized matrix specifically for MALDI-2 post-ionization analysis.

FlexMatrix™是纯粹的纯净，可以消除潜在的污染源。这简化了实验室工作流程，并通过消除样品或仪器污染的潜在来源来最大化正常运行时间。它是预先设定的，以便于制备，FlexMatrix™迅速溶解在短时间的超声处理时间内。

fleXmatrix™ is perfectly suited for use with IntelliSlides™ and can be used with all of Bruker’s MALDI Imaging platforms. It offers reliable MALDI ionization and is easily removed from tissue samples after MALDI measurement for applications such as histological staining.

MALDI Targets
A variety of MALDI targets are available. Proven AnchorChip technology for easiest automation, as well as standard formats available with 96, 384 or 1536 spot geometry.

IntelliSlides™
Pre-inscribed IntelliSlides™ streamline and simplify experimental set up processes in the lab and on all of Bruker’s MALDI Imaging instruments.

IntelliSlides™ are a single-use consumable to avoid potential sources of contamination. They fulfill all requirements for reliable MALDI ionization. With all inscriptions on the conductive slide surface, permanent registration marks (teach marks) indicate where to place the sample for alignment within the MALDI instrument.

With a unique serial number and barcode to simplify sample tracking, IntelliSlides™ are also compatible with histology and microscopy techniques.

Automated image acquisition is available on Bruker's timsTOF fleX and rapifleX^®具有弹性为5.1及以上的平台。

Facilitating SpatialOMx^®
In SpatialOMx^®workflows on the timsTOF fleX, MALDI Imaging is used to map molecule distributions across tissue sections to identify regions of interest and focus X-Omics analyses to specific cell populations.

Image registration on the timsTOF fleX using IntelliSlides™ is automated at the touch of a button. By quickly aligning the target sample with the timsTOF fleX laser optics, workflow set up takes three minutes, allowing rapid and accurate analysis.

Compatible with histology
IntelliSlides™ are compatible with common histology stains and procedures, such as hematoxylin and eosin. Permanent registration marks (or ‘teach marks’) do not dissolve in histology solvents, allowing for easier co-registration of post-measurement stained tissues with the corresponding MALDI dataset.
