AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing mass spectrometry imaging techniques struggle to unify and solidify the detection objective, tracer sampling conditions, tissue preservation status, slice layer relationships, and isotope peak range in metabolic flux analysis. This makes it difficult to establish a traceable relationship between the determination of metabolic flux direction and relative metabolic flux support strength and the original peak mass quality status. Furthermore, these results are susceptible to peak mass loss, quality deviation, and discontinuous peak mass response.

Method used

By generating tracer sampling control records and metabolic flow analysis constraint records, the sampling time sequence and tissue state are defined, spatially faithful tissue slice groups are generated, and isotope peak group signals are acquired through mass spectrometry imaging. Compensation scanning and correction are performed to generate a spatial isotope labeling matrix, and finally a metabolic flow tracing map is generated, realizing accurate localization of metabolic flow partitions and tracing of abnormal sources.

Benefits of technology

It improves the spatial partitioning accuracy of metabolic flux analysis and the reliability of metabolic flux direction determination, ensuring the accuracy of relative metabolic flux support strength calculation and the traceability of anomaly sources.
