Structural elucidation of glycerophospholipids using metastable atom-activated dissociation mass spectrometry (MAD-MS)
… of high-energy helium metastable atoms. Penning ionization of the lipid ions causes fragmentation throughout the lipid molecules and provides many radical-induced and high-energy products that are not typically observed through collisional activation. MAD is therefore useful in that it can …

Picosecond Infrared Lasers (PIRL): Applications in Biodiagnostics and Towards Quantitative Mass Spectrometry
A new concept based on the Picosecond Infrared Laser (PIRL) has been introduced to selectively excite water to directly drive ablation of biological tissue faster than any competing energy dissipation process that could damage surrounding tissue. This thesis work showed that this mechanism can be …
