Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization (SALDI) substrates have been fabricated using nanospiked polyurethane (PU) substrates that are replicated by a low-cost soft nanolithography method from silicon nanospike structures formed with femtosecond laser irradiations. The strongest mass spectrometry (MS) signal of Angiotensin II was obtained on 45-nm Au-coated nanospiked PU substrates. The effective ionization appears to be due to surface plasmon excitation. Such low-cost and identical SALDI substrates can be used for MS analysis of various molecules with high reproducibility. Copyright (C) 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
