Abstract
The spatial distribution of lipidomes in tissues is of great importance in studies of living processes, diseases, and therapies. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has become a critical technique for spatial lipidomics. However, MSI of low-abundance or poorly ionizable lipids is still challenging because of the ion suppression from high-abundance lipids. Here, a metal-organic framework (MOF) Zr6O4(OH)4(1,3,5-Tris(4-carboxyphenyl) benzene)2(triflate)6(Zr6OTf-BTB) was prepared and used for selective on-tissue adsorption of phospholipids to reduce ion suppression from them to poorly ionizable lipids. The results show that Zr6OTf-BTB with strong Lewis acidic sites and a large specific surface area (647.9 m2·g-1) could selectively adsorb phospholipids under 1% FA-MeOH. Adsorption efficiencies of phospholipids are 88.4-144.9 times higher than those of other neutral lipids. Moreover, the adsorption capacity and the adsorption kinetic rate constant of the new material to phospholipids are higher than those of Zr6-BTB (242.72 vs 73.96 mg·g-1, 0.0442 vs 0.0220 g·mg-1·min-1). A Zr6OTf-BTB sheet was prepared by a lamination technique for on-tissue phospholipid adsorption from brain tissue. Then, the tissue section on the Zr6OTf-BTB sheet was directly imaged via ambient liquid extraction-MSI with 1% FA-MeOH as the sampling solvent. The results showed that phospholipids could be 100% removed directly on tissue, and the detection coverage of the Zr6OTf-BTB-enhanced MSI method to ceramides (Cers) and hexosylceramides (HexCers) was increased by 5-26 times compared with direct tissue MSI (26 vs 1 and 17 vs 3). The new method provides an efficient and convenient way to eliminate the ion suppression from phospholipids in MSI, largely improving the detection coverage of low-abundance and poorly ionizable lipids.

Abstract
A series of functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were facilely prepared through an one-pot procedure or post-synthetic modification strategy and used as matrices in laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS). Compared with traditional organic matrices and other MOFs, maltose-functional MOF MIL-101-maltose demonstrated ultrahigh ionization efficiency, free matrix background, uniform crystallization, and good dispersibility. A simple, general, and efficient LDI-MS platform was developed for rapid detection of various small biomolecules using MIL-101-maltose as matrix, providing several advantages including low sample consumption of 500 nL, short analysis time of few seconds, strong salt tolerance (500 mM NaCl), and satisfactory reproducibility. The MIL-101-maltose matrix was used for serum glucose determination and successfully distinguished the diabetic patients from the healthy controls. This work provides a generic LDI-MS platform for fast determination of small biomolecules with high potential in clinical diagnosis and disease monitoring.

Abstract
Within the past two decades, the escalation of research output in nanotechnology fields has boosted the development of novel nanoparticles and nanostructured substrates for use as matrices in surface assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (SALDI-MS). The application of nanomaterials as matrices, rather than organic matrices, offers remarkable characteristics that allow the analysis of small molecules with fewer matrix interfering peaks, and share higher detection sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility. The technological advancement of SALDI-MS has in turn, propelled the application of the analytical technique in the field of biomedical analysis. In this review, the properties and fabrication methods of nanostructured substrates in SALDI-MS such as metallic-, carbon-, and silicon-based nanostructures, quantum dots, metal-organic frameworks, and covalent-organic frameworks are described. Additionally, the latest progress (most within 5 years) of biomedical applications in small molecule, large biomolecule, and MS imaging analysis including metabolite profiling, drug monitoring, bacteria identification, disease diagnosis, and therapeutic evaluation are demonstrated. Key parameters that govern nanomaterial's SALDI efficiency in biomolecule analysis are also discussed. Finally, perspectives of the future development are given to provide a better advancement and promote practical application in clinical MS.

Abstract
The efficient detection of small molecules is of significance for environmental monitoring, pharmacology, metabolomics, and lipidomics. The laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI MS) platform enables high sensitivity, accuracy, resolution, and throughput in molecular analysis, but its analytical capability with respect to small molecules is limited due to inherent drawbacks arising from conventional organic matrices. The selection of an appropriate matrix is thus a precondition for small molecule detection by LDI MS. To date, various inorganic matrices have been developed, with a growing interest in composite materials displaying synergetic effects. This Minireview highlights the development of nanocomposites as LDI matrices driven by numerous innovations in material science, and their emerging use in small-molecule analysis.

Abstract
High-throughput metabolic analysis is of significance in diagnostics, while tedious sample pretreatment has largely hindered its clinic application. Herein, we designed FeOOH@ZIF-8 composites with enhanced ionization efficiency and size-exclusion effect for laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS)-based metabolic diagnosis of gynecological cancers. The FeOOH@ZIF-8-assisted LDI-MS achieved rapid, sensitive, and selective metabolic fingerprints of the native serum without any enrichment or purification. Further analysis of extracted serum metabolic fingerprints successfully discriminated patients with gynecological cancers (GCs) from healthy controls and also differentiated three major subtypes of GCs. Given the low cost, high-throughput, and easy operation, our approach brings a new dimension to disease analysis and classification.
