Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Coated blade spray-mass spectrometry (CBS-MS) integrates solid-phase microextraction (SPME) with ambient mass spectrometry (AMS), providing a powerful approach for analyzing trace analytes in complex sample matrices. In CBS-MS, analytes are extracted and enriched into a thin layer of coating material on a stainless-steel blade. Afterwards, a small volume of solvent is applied directly to the coating surface, enabling rapid desorption and subsequent electrospray ionization (ESI) from the blade tip under high voltage. By eliminating chromatographic separation and utilizing high-throughput extraction formats, CBS-MS enables rapid screening with total analysis times as short as 10 s per sample. The use of matrix-compatible coating materials facilitates direct analysis of complex biological matrices-including plasma, urine, whole blood, and tissue-without additional cleanup steps. This tutorial highlights the key features of CBS-MS, provides detailed guidance for its implementation, and offers perspectives on future developments of this emerging technology.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
