Abstract
In a previous study, we developed a novel analytical method to directly and simultaneously detect taste- and odor-active compounds using graphite carbon black (GCB)-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS). In this study, we aimed to evaluate food quality using a variety of soy sauces using the method to discriminate each product. Graphite carbon black-laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry allowed the provision of hundreds of MS peaks derived from soy sauces in both positive and negative modes without any tedious sample pretreatments. Principal component analysis using the obtained MS peaks clearly distinguished three soy sauce products based on the manufacturing countries (Japan, China, and India). Moreover, this method identified distinct MS peaks for discrimination, which significantly correlated with their quantitative amounts in the products. Thus, GCB-LDI-MS analysis was established as a simple and rapid technique for food analysis, illustrating the chemical patterns of food products.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) represent an attractive inorganic matrix for laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) detection of low-molecular-weight analytes; however, their direct use is hindered by severe aggregation. To limit AuNPs aggregation, hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNs) were employed as supports to improve their desorption/ionization efficiency. Thus, Au@BN was synthesized and systematically characterized. It showed low background noise and high sensitivity for LDI-MS of fipronil and its metabolites. Au@BN-assisted LDI-MS was validated using complex samples including blueberry juice, green tea beverage, and fish muscle, achieving low detection limits (0.05-0.20 µg·L-1 for liquid media, 0.82-1.25 ng·g-1 for fish muscle), wide linear ranges (0.2-100 µg·L-1 for liquid media, 3.00-1000 ng·g-1 for fish muscle), high reproducibility (7.55%-13.7%), and satisfactory recoveries (82.62%-109.1%). Furthermore, spatial distributions of analytes in strawberries and zebrafish were successfully imaged. This strategy allows for the quantitative analysis of other small molecules in complex substrates.

Abstract
Natural products (NPs) and their structural analogs represent a major source of novel drug development for disease prevention and treatment. The development of new drugs from NPs includes two crucial aspects. One is the discovery of NPs from medicinal plants/microorganisms, and the other is the evaluation of the NPs in vivo at various physiological and pathological states. The heterogeneous spatial distribution of NPs in medicinal plants/microorganisms or in vivo can provide valuable information for drug development. However, few molecular imaging technologies can detect thousands of compounds simultaneously on a label-free basis. Over the last two decades, mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) methods have progressively improved and diversified, thereby allowing for the development of various applications of NPs in plants/microorganisms and in vivo NP research. Because MSI allows for the spatial mapping of the production and distribution of numerous molecules in situ without labeling, it provides a visualization tool for NP research. Therefore, we have focused this mini-review on summarizing the applications of MSI technology in discovering NPs from medicinal plants and evaluating NPs in preclinical studies from the perspective of new drug research and development (R&D). Additionally, we briefly reviewed the factors that should be carefully considered to obtain the desired MSI results. Finally, the future development of MSI in new drug R&D is proposed.

Abstract
Matrix deposition plays an important role in obtaining high-quality and reliable molecular spatial location information for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI). To control the matrix film formation, an automatic matrix spraying apparatus was developed with the introduction of a noncontact heating lamp. Compared with the unheated condition, the noncontact heating lamp suppressed the coffee-ring effect and the diffusion phenomenon of the analyte effectively by controllable matrix film formation. Meanwhile, the signal intensity was increased by 2-5 fold. To prove the ability of the matrix deposition apparatus, the apparatus combined with metabolomics analysis was used to show the spatial distribution of the substance in sprouted potato tubers. The potential biomarkers at m/z 868.5049 and m/z 852.5101 were identified as α-solanine and α-chaconine, and the synthesis pathways were further searched. To further demonstrate the quality of MALDI images including localization and spatial resolution, lipid distribution in rat brain tissue was investigated by the developed noncontact heating matrix spraying apparatus. An excellent match with distinguishable compartments of lipids in the rat brain was obtained between the H&E-stained sections and MALDI-MSI images. These results indicate that the developed noncontact heating matrix spraying apparatus is reliable and provides a low-cost, high-quality, rapid approach for MALDI-MSI.

Abstract
Anthocyanins are flavonoid compounds that are natural color pigments occurring in various colored plants, such as berry fruits, vegetables, and grapes. With the elucidation of their various physiological effects, anthocyanins have been identified as promising functional food ingredients. However, findings on the bioavailability of anthocyanins, which are present in various chemical structures in foods, are limited; their intestinal absorption behaviors, including their transport route(s), have not been fully explained. This perspective overviews the current knowledge and issues and discusses advanced techniques, such as in situ matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging, and future perspectives on the study of the bioavailability of anthocyanins.
