Surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization

IUPAC RECOMMENDATIONS 2013
Surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization
Variant of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) in which the matrix is replaced by a surface coating of a chromatographic stationary phase designed to selectively retain different subsets of proteins or peptides from a mixture depending on their physico-chemical properties or biochemical affinity characteristics. Note: Originally this technique was named surface-enhanced affinity capture (SEAC) to distinguish it from surface-enhanced neat desorption (SEND) where the surface coating is designed to increase the efficiency of laser desorption.
