Abstract
Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) is an outstanding technique for Mass Spectral Imaging (MSI) due to its notable advantages, including high sensitivity, selectivity, and high dynamic range. As a result, SIMS has been employed across many domains of science. In this review, we provide an in-depth overview of the fundamental principles underlying SIMS, followed by an account of the recent development of SIMS instruments. The review encompasses various applications of specific SIMS instruments, notably static SIMS with time-of-flight SIMS (ToF-SIMS) as a widely used platform and dynamic SIMS with Nano SIMS and large geometry SIMS as successful instruments. We particularly focus on SIMS utility in microanalysis and imaging of metals and alloys as materials of interest. Additionally, we discuss the challenges in big SIMS data analysis and give examples of machine leaning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for effective MSI data analysis. Finally, we recommend the outlook of SIMS development. It is anticipated that in situ and operando SIMS has the potential to significantly enhance the investigation of metals and alloys by enabling real-time examinations of material surfaces and interfaces during dynamic transformations.

Abstract
This work describes the use of laser ablation electrospray ionization mass spectrometry imaging (LAESI imaging) to investigate the diffusion of the mycotoxin patulin from rotten to healthy areas of fruits. Slices of mold-infected and uninfected (control) apples and strawberries were prepared, and this was the only sample preparation step used. An infrared laser beam (2.94 μm) was used to irradiate the slices, resulting in the ablation of sample compounds directly ionized by electrospray and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Multivariate curve resolution - alternating least squares was applied in unfolded LAESI images to obtain relative quantity information. Patulin was not detected in the control samples but was seen in all mold-infected fruits. LAESI images showed the diffusion of patulin from the rotten area to unaffected parts of the fruits. This study points out the advantage of LAESI imaging over traditional analytical methods used to study the diffusion of mycotoxins in fruits.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) data generally contains large sizes and high-dimensional structures due to their inherent complex chemical and spatial information. A variety of data analysis methods have been developed to comprehensively analyze the MSI experimental results and extract essential information. Here, we describe the protocols of data preprocessing and emerging methods for data analyses, including multivariate analysis, machine learning, and image fusion, that have been applied to the data generated from the Single-probe MSI technique. These strategies and methods can be potentially applied to handling data produced from other MSI techniques.

Abstract
Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) is a rapidly advancing molecular imaging modality that can map the spatial distribution of molecules with high chemical specificity. IMS does not require prior tagging of molecular targets and is able to measure a large number of ions concurrently in a single experiment. While this makes it particularly suited for exploratory analysis, the large amount and high-dimensional nature of data generated by IMS techniques make automated computational analysis indispensable. Research into computational methods for IMS data has touched upon different aspects, including spectral preprocessing, data formats, dimensionality reduction, spatial registration, sample classification, differential analysis between IMS experiments, and data-driven fusion methods to extract patterns corroborated by both IMS and other imaging modalities. In this work, we review unsupervised machine learning methods for exploratory analysis of IMS data, with particular focus on (a) factorization, (b) clustering, and (c) manifold learning. To provide a view across the various IMS modalities, we have attempted to include examples from a range of approaches including matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization, desorption electrospray ionization, and secondary ion mass spectrometry-based IMS. This review aims to be an entry point for both (i) analytical chemists and mass spectrometry experts who want to explore computational techniques; and (ii) computer scientists and data mining specialists who want to enter the IMS field. © 2019 The Authors.

Abstract
Multivariate curve resolution alternating least square (MCR-ALS) analysis allows the simultaneous retrieval of pure concentration and spectral profiles for each of the analysed chemical components from the composite spectrum even in the presence of unknown interferences. Total synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy (TSFS), a multidimensional fluorescence technique that describes the variation of synchronous fluorescence profile acquired as a function of increasing offset, has become a useful analytical technique. Suitably arranged TSFS data set can be easily processed using MCR-ALS and thereby a simple and sensitive analytical tool could be developed. The present work successfully used the combination of the MCR-ALS and TSFS to analyse the three carcinogenic and mutagenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) namely Benzo[a]Pyrene, Chrysene and Pyrene in the presence of complex fluorescence background originated from petroleum product. MCR-ALS assisted TSFS can be used for the routine analyses of these carcinogenic PAHs to ensure the quality of water and other samples belonging to different part of the ecosystem.

Abstract
Cephalosporins are among the most frequently used broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents. Ceftazidime is a semisynthetic β-lactam antibiotic for parenteral administration widely used in the clinical practice, which has been categorized as a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. This drug crystallizes as a pentahydrate and, as all cephalosporins, it is unstable and subject to hydrolytic degradation. Taking this into account, this study investigates the stability under 2 different conditions (high temperature and exposition to vacuum) by using various techniques, as thermal analysis, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray powder diffraction supported by multivariate curve resolution. It was proved that ceftazidime pentahydrate is unstable under the studied variables, exhibiting several transformation processes, which were discussed in terms of the crystalline structure.

Abstract
The characterization of cancer tissues by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry images (MALDI-MSI) is of great interest because of the power of MALDI-MS to understand the composition of biological samples and the imaging side that allows for setting spatial boundaries among tissues of different nature based on their compositional differences. In tissue-based cancer research, information on the spatial location of necrotic/tumoral cell populations can be approximately known from grayscale images of the scanned tissue slices. This study proposes as a major novelty the introduction of this physiologically-based information to help in the performance of unmixing methods, oriented to extract the MS signatures and distribution maps of the different tissues present in biological samples. Specifically, the information gathered from grayscale images will be used as a local rank constraint in Multivariate Curve Resolution-Alternating Least Squares (MCR-ALS) for the analysis of MALDI-MSI of cancer tissues. The use of this constraint, setting absence of certain kind of tissues only in clear zones of the image, will help to improve the performance of MCR-ALS and to provide a more reliable definition of the chemical MS fingerprint and location of the tissues of interest. The general strategy to address the analysis of MALDI-MSI of cancer tissues will involve the study of the MCR-ALS results and the posterior use of MCR-ALS scores as dimensionality reduction for image segmentation based on K-means clustering. The resolution method will provide the MS signatures and their distribution maps for each tissue in the sample. Then, the resolved distribution maps for each biological component (MCR scores) will be submitted as initial information to K-means clustering for image segmentation to obtain information on the boundaries of the different tissular regions in the samples studied. MCR-ALS prior to K-means not only provides the desired dimensionality reduction, but additionally resolved non-biological signal contributions are not used and the weight given to the different biological components in the segmentation process can be modulated by suitable preprocessing methods.

Abstract
RATIONALE Identification of subregions under different pathological conditions on cancerous tissue is of great significance for understanding cancer progression and metastasis. Infrared matrix-assisted laser desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (IR-MALDESI-MS) can be potentially used for diagnostic purposes since it can monitor spatial distribution and abundance of metabolites and lipids in biological tissues. However, the large size and high dimensionality of hyperspectral data make analysis and interpretation challenging. To overcome these barriers, multivariate methods were applied to IR-MALDESI data for the first time, aiming at efficiently resolving mass spectral images, from which these results were then used to identify normal regions within cancerous tissue. METHODS Molecular profiles of healthy and cancerous hen ovary tissues were generated by IR-MALDESI-MS. Principal component analysis (PCA) combined with color-coding built a single tissue image which summarizes the high-dimensional data features. Pixels with similar color indicated similar composition. PCA results from healthy tissue were further used to test each pixel in cancerous tissue to determine if it is healthy. Multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) was used to obtain major spatial features existing in ovary tissues, and group molecules with the same distribution patterns simultaneously. RESULTS PCA as the predominating dimensionality reduction approach captured over 90% spectral variances by the first three PCs. The PCA images show the cancerous tissue is more chemically heterogeneous than healthy tissue, where at least four regions with different m/z profiles can be differentiated. PCA modeling assigns top regions of cancerous tissue as healthy-like. MCR-ALS extracted three and four major compounds from healthy and cancerous tissue, respectively. Evaluating similarities of resolved spectra uncovered the chemical components that were distinct in some regions on cancerous tissue, serving as a supplementary way to differentiate healthy and cancerous regions. CONCLUSIONS Two unsupervised chemometric methods including PCA and MCR-ALS were applied for resolving and visualizing IR-MALDESI-MS data acquired from hen ovary tissues, improving the interpretation of mass spectrometry imaging results. Then possible normal regions were differentiated from cancerous tissue sections. No prior knowledge is required using either chemometric method, so our approach is readily suitable for unstained tissue samples, which allows one to reveal the molecular events happening during disease progression.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carcinogenic and mutagenic in nature therefore their sensing in water sample is an important analytical task. In the present work, a novel approach that is based on the random initialisation of the excitation-emission matrix fluorescence (EEMF) spectral variables in constraint fashion for subsequent multivariate curve resolution alternating least Square (MCR-ALS) analysis is introduced for simultaneously sensing the complex dilute aqueous mixture of PAHs. The usefulness of the proposed analytical approach is successfully demonstrated by applying it intentionally on a calibration set that is peculiar in many senses. The peculiarity mainly arises because the designed (i) the calibration set consist of nine PAHS having significant spectral overlap, (ii) the concentration of each PAH in different samples are kept constant and (iii) any two samples differ only in the presence and absence of the PAHs. The proposed approach is found to make precise and accurate estimation of each of the nine PAHs without involving any pre-separation. In summary, the proposed approach provides a simple and cost-effective procedure for simultaneous sensing of several PAHs in water samples. The proposed approach could be very useful in developing countries.

J Dermatol Sci 2018; 92:97-105. [PMID: 30017509 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdermsci.2018.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2018] [Revised: 07/04/2018] [Accepted: 07/05/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is known to be one of the most important environmental hazards acting on the skin. The most part of UV radiation is absorbed in the epidermis, where keratinocytes are the most abundant and exposed cell type. Lipids have an important role in skin biology, not only for their important contribution to the maintenance of the permeability barrier but also for the production and storage of energy, membrane organization and cell signalling functions. However, the effects on the lipid composition of keratinocytes under UV radiation are little explored. OBJECTIVE The present work aims to explore the effects on the phenotype and lipid content of primary human keratinocytes exposed to simulated solar UV radiation. METHODS Keratinocytes were exposed to a single (acute exposure) and repeated simulated solar UV irradiations for 4 weeks (chronic exposure). Cell viability and morphology were explored, as well as the production of reactive oxygen species. Then, lipid extracts were analysed through liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and the data generated was processed using the ROIMCR chemometric methodology together with partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), to finally reveal the most relevant lipid changes that occurred in keratinocytes upon UV irradiation. Also, the potential induction of keratinocyte differentiation was explored by measuring the increase of involucrin. RESULTS Under acute irradiation, cell viability and morphology were not altered. However, a general increase of phosphatidylcholines (PC) phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG) together with a slight sphingomyelin (SM) decrease were found in UV irradiated cells, among other changes. In addition, keratinocyte cultures did not present any differentiation hallmark. Contrary to acute-irradiated cells, in chronic exposures, cell viability was reduced and keratinocytes presented an altered morphology. Also, hallmarks of differentiation, such as the increase of involucrin protein and the autophagy induction were detected. Among the main lipid changes that accompanied this phenotype, the increase of long-chain ceramides, lysoPC and glycerolipid species were found. CONCLUSION Important lipid changes were detected under acute and chronic UV irradiation. The lipid profile under chronic exposure may represent a lipid fingerprint of the keratinocyte differentiation phenotype.

Combining hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics to assess and interpret the effects of environmental stressors on zebrafish eye images at tissue level. JOURNAL OF BIOPHOTONICS 2018; 11:e201700089.

Abstract
Changes on an organism by the exposure to environmental stressors may be characterized by hyperspectral images (HSI), which preserve the morphology of biological samples, and suitable chemometric tools. The approach proposed allows assessing and interpreting the effect of contaminant exposure on heterogeneous biological samples monitored by HSI at specific tissue levels. In this work, the model example used consists of the study of the effect of the exposure of chlorpyrifos-oxon on zebrafish tissues. To assess this effect, unmixing of the biological sample images followed by tissue-specific classification models based on the unmixed spectral signatures is proposed. Unmixing and classification are performed by multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), respectively. Crucial aspects of the approach are: (1) the simultaneous MCR-ALS analysis of all images from 1 population to take into account biological variability and provide reliable tissue spectral signatures, and (2) the use of resolved spectral signatures from control and exposed populations obtained from resampling of pixel subsets analyzed by MCR-ALS multiset analysis as information for the tissue-specific PLS-DA classification models. Classification results diagnose the presence of a significant effect and identify the spectral regions at a tissue level responsible for the biological change.

Abstract
Raloxifene hydrochloride is a benzothiophene derivative mainly used in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, but exhibits a low bioavailability hindered by its poor water solubility. In this study, a mechanochemical approach based on neat and liquid-assisted grinding was applied to produce new solid forms of raloxifene hydrochloride. The solids obtained were characterized by several solid-state techniques, such as powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, infrared and Raman spectroscopy. These results showed that depending on the processing conditions solvated or amorphous forms can be produced. The thermal stability of the new forms was also investigated showing that the new forms convert back into the raw material form, as observed by Raman spectroscopy, which was successfully used to discriminate amorphous and crystalline forms, as well as, to monitor in situ the recrystallization process. Furthermore, the solubility of the new forms was evaluated, showing the clear advantage of the amorphous form, when compared with the currently marketed salt.

Abstract
Large amounts of data are generally produced from mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) experiments in obtaining the molecular and spatial information of biological samples. Traditionally, MS images are constructed using manually selected ions, and it is very challenging to comprehensively analyze MSI results due to their large data sizes and highly complex data structures. To overcome these barriers, it is obligatory to develop advanced data analysis approaches to handle the increasingly large MSI data. In the current study, we focused on the method development of using Multivariate Curve Resolution (MCR) and Machine Learning (ML) approaches. We aimed to effectively extract the essential information present in the large and complex MSI data and enhance the metabolomic data analysis of biological tissues. Multivariate Curve Resolution-Alternating Least Squares (MCR-ALS) algorithm was used to obtain major patterns of spatial distribution and grouped metabolites with the same spatial distribution patterns. In addition, both supervised and unsupervised ML methods were established to analyze the MSI data. In the supervised ML approach, Random Forest method was selected, and the model was trained using the selected datasets based on the distribution pattern obtained from MCR-ALS analyses. In the unsupervised ML approach, both DBSCAN (Density-based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) and CLARA (Clustering Large Applications) were applied to cluster the MSI datasets. It is worth noting that similar patterns of spatial distribution were discovered through MSI data analysis using MCR-ALS, supervised ML, and unsupervised ML. Our protocols of data analysis can be applied to process the data acquired using many other types of MSI techniques, and to extract the overall features present in MSI results that are intractable using traditional data analysis approaches.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a transformative imaging method that supports the untargeted, quantitative measurement of the chemical composition and spatial heterogeneity of complex samples with broad applications in life sciences, bioenergy, and health. While MSI data can be routinely collected, its broad application is currently limited by the lack of easily accessible analysis methods that can process data of the size, volume, diversity, and complexity generated by MSI experiments. The development and application of cutting-edge analytical methods is a core driver in MSI research for new scientific discoveries, medical diagnostics, and commercial-innovation. However, the lack of means to share, apply, and reproduce analyses hinders the broad application, validation, and use of novel MSI analysis methods. To address this central challenge, we introduce the Berkeley Analysis and Storage Toolkit (BASTet), a novel framework for shareable and reproducible data analysis that supports standardized data and analysis interfaces, integrated data storage, data provenance, workflow management, and a broad set of integrated tools. Based on BASTet, we describe the extension of the OpenMSI mass spectrometry imaging science gateway to enable web-based sharing, reuse, analysis, and visualization of data analyses and derived data products. We demonstrate the application of BASTet and OpenMSI in practice to identify and compare characteristic substructures in the mouse brain based on their chemical composition measured via MSI.

Secondary ion mass spectrometry imaging and multivariate data analysis reveal co-aggregation patterns of Populus trichocarpa leaf surface compounds on a micrometer scale. THE PLANT JOURNAL : FOR CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2018; 93:193-206. [PMID: 29117637 DOI: 10.1111/tpj.13763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2016] [Revised: 10/13/2017] [Accepted: 10/23/2017] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
Spatially resolved analysis of a multitude of compound classes has become feasible with the rapid advancement in mass spectrometry imaging strategies. In this study, we present a protocol that combines high lateral resolution time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) imaging with a multivariate data analysis (MVA) approach to probe the complex leaf surface chemistry of Populus trichocarpa. Here, epicuticular waxes (EWs) found on the adaxial leaf surface of P. trichocarpa were blotted on silicon wafers and imaged using TOF-SIMS at 10 μm and 1 μm lateral resolution. Intense M+● and M-● molecular ions were clearly visible, which made it possible to resolve the individual compound classes present in EWs. Series of long-chain aliphatic saturated alcohols (C21 -C30 ), hydrocarbons (C25 -C33 ) and wax esters (WEs; C44 -C48 ) were clearly observed. These data correlated with the 7 Li-chelation matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) analysis, which yielded mostly molecular adduct ions of the analyzed compounds. Subsequently, MVA was used to interrogate the TOF-SIMS dataset for identifying hidden patterns on the leaf's surface based on its chemical profile. After the application of principal component analysis (PCA), a small number of principal components (PCs) were found to be sufficient to explain maximum variance in the data. To further confirm the contributions from pure components, a five-factor multivariate curve resolution (MCR) model was applied. Two distinct patterns of small islets, here termed 'crystals', were apparent from the resulting score plots. Based on PCA and MCR results, the crystals were found to be formed by C23 or C29 alcohols. Other less obvious patterns observed in the PCs revealed that the adaxial leaf surface is coated with a relatively homogenous layer of alcohols, hydrocarbons and WEs. The ultra-high-resolution TOF-SIMS imaging combined with the MVA approach helped to highlight the diverse patterns underlying the leaf's surface. Currently, the methods available to analyze the surface chemistry of waxes in conjunction with the spatial information related to the distribution of compounds are limited. This study uses tools that may provide important biological insights into the composition of the wax layer, how this layer is repaired after mechanical damage or insect feeding, and which transport mechanisms are involved in deploying wax constituents to specific regions on the leaf surface.

Abstract
Extracellular compounds in tumors play critical roles in intercellular communication, tumor proliferation, and cancer cell metastasis. However, the lack of appropriate techniques leads to limited studies of extracellular metabolite. Here, we introduced a microscale collection device, the Micro-funnel, fabricated from biocompatible fused silica capillary. With a small probe size (∼25 μm), the Micro-funnel can be implanted into live multicellular tumor spheroids to accumulate the extracellular metabolites produced by cancer cells. Metabolites collected in the Micro-funnel device were then extracted by a microscale sampling and ionization device, the Single-probe, for real-time mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. We successfully detected the abundance change of anticancer drug irinotecan and its metabolites inside spheroids treated under a series of conditions. Moreover, we found that irinotecan treatment dramatically altered the composition of extracellular compounds. Specifically, we observed the increased abundances of a large number of lipids, which are potentially related to the drug resistance of cancer cells. This study provides a novel way to detect the extracellular compounds inside live spheroids, and the successful development of our technique can benefit the research in multiple areas, including the microenvironment inside live tissues, cell-cell communication, biomarker discovery, and drug development.

Abstract
Currently, considerable attention has been paid to atmospheric particulate matter (PM) investigation due to its importance in human health and global climate change. Surface characterization, single particle analysis and depth profiling of PM is important for a better understanding of its formation processes and predicting its impact on the environment and human being. Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a surface technique with high surface sensitivity, high spatial resolution chemical imaging and unique depth profiling capabilities. Recent research shows that SIMS has great potential in analyzing both surface and bulk chemical information of PM. In this review, we give a brief introduction of SIMS working principle and survey recent applications of SIMS in PM characterization. Particularly, analyses from different types of PM sources by various SIMS techniques were discussed concerning their advantages and limitations. The future development and needs of SIMS in atmospheric aerosol measurement are proposed with a perspective in broader environmental sciences.
