HST helps scientists do more with less. Leverage HST technology to identify molecules at lower levels, conduct high throughput work, save time & improve reproducibility with pre-spotted plates, run more experiments, achieve faster, more precise matrix deposition for imaging (at low cost), digest samples in less time, conduct LDI experiments, and use visual and MALDI imaging on the same sample.

To this end, we have developed low-cost, single use (disposable/archivable) sample plates (targets) for MALDI, along with a range of related products to increase user productivity:

µFocus plates to boost productivity and sensitivity while lowering operational costs.These cost-effective, high performance plates give compact, reproducible sample/matrix deposits that improve s/n, while eliminating target cleaning and ghosting.
µArray plates for high-throughput (HTP) and imaging experiments.
Pre-spotted µFocus and µArray plates (Select, DHB, HCCA or "no matrix" when ordering µFocus or µArray plates) to save time in sample preparation.
ITO Glass slides to allow MALDI and optical imaging of the same sample.
Glyco-Affi MALDI plates for easy, selective surface-binding and MALDI analysis.
MALDI imaging prep systems
Microwave digestion systems

HST accomplishes and keeps products cost-effective, via unique surface treatment technology that leverages standard photo-lithography techniques and low-cost manufacturing infrastructure for semiconductor fabrication.

MALDI MS Sample Preparation

HST is the leading source for single-use third party sample plates for MALDI-MS for ABSciex, Bruker, Shimadzu and JEOL instruments. μFocus MALDI targets provide precisely defined hydrophilic islands on a hydrophobic surface so that your dried drop sample spots are focused onto repeatable, defined spots. HST offers these in standard formats for Sciex, Bruker, Shimadzu and JEOL instruments, and also in 25 x 75 mm formats for any instrument that can accept that size sample plate. 25 x 75 mm format sample plates also include ITO coated glass slides for MALDI imaging, and high density arrays of μFocus spots (μArray sample plates) for high through-put work.
