MALDI-guided SIMS: Multiscale Imaging of Metabolites in Bacterial Biofilms
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a versatile tool for visualizing molecular distributions in complex biological specimens, but locating microscopic chemical features of interest can be challenging in samples that lack a well-defined anatomy. To address this issue, we developed a correlated imaging approach that begins with performing matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) MSI to ...
متن کاملImaging an aligned polyatomic molecule with laser-induced electron diffraction
Laser-induced electron diffraction is an evolving tabletop method that aims to image ultrafast structural changes in gas-phase polyatomic molecules with sub-Ångström spatial and femtosecond temporal resolutions. Here we demonstrate the retrieval of multiple bond lengths from a polyatomic molecule by simultaneously measuring the C-C and C-H bond lengths in aligned acetylene. Our approach takes t...
متن کاملSisyphus Laser Cooling of a Polyatomic Molecule.
We perform magnetically assisted Sisyphus laser cooling of the triatomic free radical strontium monohydroxide (SrOH). This is achieved with principal optical cycling in the rotationally closed P(N^{''}=1) branch of either the X[over ˜]^{2}Σ^{+}(000)↔A[over ˜]^{2}Π_{1/2}(000) or the X[over ˜]^{2}Σ^{+}(000)↔B[over ˜]^{2}Σ^{+}(000) vibronic transitions. Molecules lost into the excited vibrational ...
متن کاملConstructing a Body-Fixed Reference Frame for a Polyatomic Molecule
An attempt is made to show in a straightforward way how a body-fixed frame may be constructed in classical and hence in quantum mechanics for a polyatomic molecule with the aid of which the vibration-rotation behavior of the molecule may be described.
متن کاملVisualizing Antimicrobials in Bacterial Biofilms: Three-Dimensional Biochemical Imaging Using TOF-SIMS
Bacterial biofilms are groups of bacteria that exist within a self-produced extracellular matrix, adhering to each other and usually to a surface. They grow on medical equipment and inserts such as catheters and are responsible for many persistent infections throughout the body, as they can have high resistance to many antimicrobials. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can...
