    Abstract: In certain embodiments, a method of detection includes providing cells labeled with a first element tag bound to a target RNA sequence and a second element tag bound to a target protein. The method may further include ionizing a cell, or a portion thereof, to produce an ionized first and second element tag, and simultaneously detecting the ionized first and second element tag. The ionization may be performed by an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) torch. The method may further comprise nebulizing the cells in suspension prior to ionizing. In certain embodiments, the ionized first and second element tag may be detected by time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Additional methods, and systems and reagents for simultaneous detection of RNA and protein by mass spectrometry are also described.

    Abstract: In a mass cytometer system, a tissue sample labeled with multiple metal tags is supported on an encoded substrate for distribution profile mapping by laser ablation. Groups of elemental ions from each plume generated by each laser pulse are detected by the mass cytometer and the data is mapped according to the encoded substrate. This configuration allows for the production of a 3-dimentional distribution profile of the multiple metal tags in the tissue sample.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to replacement of the previous ICP-based ionisation system with a new laser ionisation system, providing improved mass spectrometer-based apparatus and methods for using them to analyse samples, in particular the use of mass spectrometry mass cytometry, imaging mass spectrometry and imaging mass cytometry, for the analysis of biological samples. Accordingly, embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus, for example a mass cytometer, comprising: 1 ) a sampler; 2) a laser ionisation system to receive material removed from the sample by the sampler, wherein the laser ionisation system comprises an ionisation system conduit and a pulsed laser adapted to ionise sample material passing through or exiting the ionisation system conduit; and 3) a mass spectrometer to receive elemental ions from said ionisation system and to analyse said elemental ions.
