Abstract
Mass spectrometry has been increasingly explored in intraoperative studies as a potential technology to help guide surgical decision making. Yet, intraoperative experiments using high-performance mass spectrometry instrumentation present a unique set of operational challenges. For example, standard operating rooms are often not equipped with the electrical requirements to power a commercial mass spectrometer and are not designed to accommodate their permanent installation. These obstacles can impact progress and patient enrollment in intraoperative clinical studies because implementation of MS instrumentation becomes limited to specific operating rooms that have the required electrical connections and space. To expand our intraoperative clinical studies using the MasSpec Pen technology, we explored the feasibility of transporting and acquiring data on Orbitrap mass spectrometers operating on battery power in hospital buildings. We evaluated the effect of instrument movement including acceleration and rotational speeds on signal stability and mass accuracy by acquiring data using direct infusion electrospray ionization. Data were acquired while rolling the systems in/out of operating rooms and while descending/ascending a freight elevator. Despite these movements and operating the instrument on battery power, the relative standard deviation of the total ion current was <5% and the magnitude of the mass error relative to the internal calibrant never exceeded 5.06 ppm. We further evaluated the feasibility of performing intraoperative MasSpec Pen analysis while operating the Orbitrap mass spectrometer on battery power during an ovarian cancer surgery. We observed that the rich and tissue-specific molecular profile commonly detected from ovarian tissues was conserved when running on battery power. Together, these results demonstrate that Orbitrap mass spectrometers can be operated and acquire data on battery power while in motion and in rotation without losses in signal stability or mass accuracy. Furthermore, Orbitrap mass spectrometers can be used in conjunction to the MasSpec Pen while on battery power for intraoperative tissue analysis.

Abstract
Although MALDI-ToF platforms for microbial identifications have found great success in clinical microbiology, the sole use of protein fingerprints for the discrimination of closely related species, strain-level identifications, and detection of antimicrobial resistance remains a challenge for the technology. Several alternative mass spectrometry-based methods have been proposed to address the shortcomings of the protein-centric approach, including MALDI-ToF methods for fatty acid/lipid profiling and LC-MS profiling of metabolites. However, the molecular diversity of microbial pathogens suggests that no single "ome" will be sufficient for the accurate and sensitive identification of strain- and susceptibility-level profiling of bacteria. Here, we describe the development of an alternative approach to microorganism profiling that relies upon both metabolites and lipids rather than a single class of biomolecule. Single-phase extractions based on butanol, acetonitrile, and water (the BAW method) were evaluated for the recovery of lipids and metabolites from Gram-positive and -negative microorganisms. We found that BAW extraction solutions containing 45% butanol provided optimal recovery of both molecular classes in a single extraction. The single-phase extraction method was coupled to hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) to resolve similar-mass metabolites and lipids in three dimensions and provide multiple points of evidence for feature annotation in the absence of tandem mass spectrometry. We demonstrate that the combined use of metabolites and lipids can be used to differentiate microorganisms to the species- and strain-level for four of the ESKAPE pathogens (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) using data from a single ionization mode. These results present promising, early stage evidence for the use of multiomic signatures for the identification of microorganisms by liquid chromatography, ion mobility, and mass spectrometry that, upon further development, may improve upon the level of identification provided by current methods.

Abstract
The abuse of antibiotics urgently requires rapid identification of drug-resistant bacteria at the point of care (POC). Here we report a visual paper sensor that allows rapid (0.25-3 h) discrimination of the subtypes of β-lactamase (the major cause of bacterial resistance) for precision antibiotic therapy. The sensor exhibits high performance in identifying antibiotic-resistant bacteria with 100 real samples from patients with diverse bacterial infections, demonstrating 100% clinical sensitivity and specificity. Further, this sensor can enhance the accuracy of antibiotic use from 48% empirically to 83%, and further from 50.6% to 97.6% after eliminating fungal infection cases. Our work provides a POC testing platform for guiding effective management of bacterial infections in both hospital and community settings.

Abstract
Biothreat detection has continued to gain attention. Samples suspected to fall into any of the CDC's biothreat categories require identification by processes that require specialized expertise and facilities. Recent developments in analytical instrumentation and machine learning algorithms offer rapid and accurate classification of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial species. This is achieved by analyzing the negative ions generated from bacterial cell extracts with a modified linear quadrupole ion-trap mass spectrometer fitted with two-dimensional tandem mass spectrometry capabilities (2D MS/MS). The 2D MS/MS data domain of a bacterial cell extract is recorded within five s using a five-scan average after sample preparation by a simple extraction. Bacteria were classified at the species level by their lipid profiles using the random forest, k-nearest neighbor, and multilayer perceptron machine learning models. 2D MS/MS data can also be treated as image data for use with image recognition algorithms such as convolutional neural networks. The classification accuracy of all models tested was greater than 99%. Adding to previously published work on the 2D MS/MS analysis of bacterial growth and the profiling of sporulating bacteria, this study demonstrates the utility and information-rich nature of 2D MS/MS in the identification of bacterial pathogens at the species level when coupled with machine learning.

Abstract
Multimodal imaging (MMI) has emerged as a powerful tool in clinical research, combining different imaging modes to acquire comprehensive information and enabling scientists and surgeons to study tissue identification, localization, metabolic activity, and molecular discovery, thus aiding in disease progression analysis. While multimodal instruments are gaining popularity, challenges such as non-standardized characteristics, custom software, inadequate commercial support, and integration issues with other instruments need to be addressed. The field of multimodal imaging or multiplexed imaging allows for simultaneous signal reproduction from multiple imaging strategies. Intraoperatively, MMI can be integrated into frameless stereotactic surgery. Recent developments in medical imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and Positron Emission Topography (PET) have brought new perspectives to multimodal imaging, enabling early cancer detection, molecular tracking, and real-time progression monitoring. Despite the evidence supporting the role of MMI in surgical decision-making, there is a need for comprehensive studies to validate and perform integration at the intersection of multiple imaging technologies. They were integrating mass spectrometry-based technologies (e.g., imaging mass spectrometry (IMS), imaging mass cytometry (IMC), and Ion mobility mass spectrometry ((IM-IM) with medical imaging modalities, offering promising avenues for molecular discovery and clinical applications. This review emphasizes the potential of multi-omics approaches in tissue mapping using MMI integrated into desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI), allowing for sequential analyses of the same section. By addressing existing knowledge gaps, this review encourages future research endeavors toward multi-omics approaches, providing a roadmap for future research and enhancing the value of MMI in molecular pathology for diagnosis.

Abstract
Offering superb speed, chemical specificity, and analytical sensitivity, direct mass spectrometry (MS) technologies are highly amenable for the molecular analysis of complex tissues to aid in disease characterization and help identify new diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive markers. By enabling detection of clinically actionable molecular profiles from tissues and cells, direct MS technologies have the potential to guide treatment decisions and transform sample analysis within clinical workflows. In this review, we highlight recent health-related developments and applications of direct MS technologies that exhibit tangible potential to accelerate clinical research and disease diagnosis, including oncological and neurodegenerative diseases and microbial infections. We focus primarily on applications that employ direct MS technologies for tissue analysis, including MS imaging technologies to map spatial distributions of molecules in situ as well as handheld devices for rapid in vivo and ex vivo tissue analysis.
