Types of
applications
Two techniques are available for sample application:
• Dried droplet—Simple application technique suitable for
most applications. Can use any type of sample plate.
• Thin layer—Use for increased sensitivity when analyzing
peptides with a concentration <0.1 pmol/µl. Requires
polished blank sample plate (no etched positions).
