  • Abstract
    Chemical analysis of metabolites directly from cell samples at sub-cellular level in ambient conditions is essential to understand the biochemical pathways in these organisms. In order to achieve this goal we combine near-field ablation with mass spectrometry. As a first step towards the integration of near-field ablation with mass spectrometry, we will report preliminary results of the chemical analysis of Arabidopsis Thaliana.
