Its significance is particularly pronounced in high-throughput drug discovery and development, where MS plays a critical role throughout various phases. Acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS) is a recent addition to the HT-MS landscape, showcasing a balanced performance high analytical throughput and high data quality. Particularly, AEMS's in-line dilution feature allows the direct analysis of large-scale, complex reaction solutions without the need for sample cleanup, making it a popular choice for large-scale high-throughput screenings. However, the substantial volume of complex matrix introduces concerns about system robustness, specifically regarding the potential clogging of the sample transfer line. This study addresses this challenge by introducing an integrated automatic washing feature to the AEMS system. This enhancement significantly improves system robustness without imposing any additional demands on assay execution time. Demonstrating an extended electrode lifetime, the cleaning approach proves effective in maintaining system performance over prolonged periods, showcasing its potential for continuous large-sample-scale high-throughput analysis applications.</p>"></meta><meta charset="UTF-8" /><!-- Pagebuild admin UI --> <script type="text/javascript">

diverse disciplines. Its significance is particularly pronounced in high-throughput drug discovery and development, where MS plays a critical role throughout various phases. Acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS) is a recent addition to the HT-MS landscape, showcasing a balanced performance high analytical throughput and high data quality. Particularly, AEMS's in-line dilution feature allows the direct analysis of large-scale, complex reaction solutions without the need for sample cleanup, making it a popular choice for large-scale high-throughput screenings. However, the substantial volume of complex matrix introduces concerns about system robustness, specifically regarding the potential clogging of the sample transfer line. This study addresses this challenge by introducing an integrated automatic washing feature to the AEMS system. This enhancement significantly improves system robustness without imposing any additional demands on assay execution time. Demonstrating an extended electrode lifetime, the cleaning approach proves effective in maintaining system performance over prolonged periods, showcasing its potential for continuous large-sample-scale high-throughput analysis applications.</div></section></div></div><div class="core-linked-content"></div><section id="keywords" property="keywords"><h2>Keywords</h2><ol><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="high-throughput+analysis"&journalCode=slast" alt="Search on this keyword">high-throughput analysis</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="mass+spectrometry"&journalCode=slast" alt="Search on this keyword">mass spectrometry</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="system+robustness"&journalCode=slast" alt="Search on this keyword">system robustness</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="open-port+interface"&journalCode=slast" alt="Search on this keyword">open-port interface</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="acoustic+ejection+mass+spectrometry"&journalCode=slast" alt="Search on this keyword">acoustic ejection mass spectrometry</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="high-throughput+screening"&journalCode=slast" alt="Search on this keyword">high-throughput screening</a></li></ol></section><div class="core-linked-content"></div><div class="core-linked-content"></div><div class="core-linked-content"></div><section id="bodymatter" data-extent="bodymatter" property="articleBody" typeof="Text"><div class="core-container"><section id="sec-1"><h2>1 Introduction</h2><div id="para0002" role="paragraph">Mass spectrometry (MS) has become a cornerstone in drug discovery due to its high specificity, broad dynamic range, and high sensitivity, making it a pivotal analytical platform for delivering high-fidelity, label-free analysis results [<a id="crf0012" href="#bib0001" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0001">1</a>]. Liquid chromatography (LC) is the predominant method to deliver liquid samples to MS through electrospray ionization (ESI). Despite its success, the analytical throughput is constrained to around 30 seconds per sample [<a id="crf0013" href="#bib0002" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0002">2</a>], limiting the application of LC-MS in high-throughput settings. This restriction is particularly evident in workflows requiring the analysis of a large sample set, such as high-throughput pharmacology screening [<a id="crf0014" href="#bib0003" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0003">3</a>,<a id="crf0015" href="#bib0004" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0004">4</a>], reaction monitoring for high-throughput experimentation [<a id="crf0016" href="#bib0005" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0005">5</a>,<a id="crf0017" href="#bib0006" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0006">6</a>], and quality control of compound libraries [<a id="crf0018" href="#bib0007" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0007">7</a>].</div><div id="para0003" role="paragraph">In a quest to enhance MS analysis throughput, various LC-free non-ESI approaches have been explored, including matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) [<a id="crf0019" href="#bib0008" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0008 bib0009 bib0010 bib0011 bib0012 bib0013">8–13</a>], laser diode thermal desorption (LDTD) [<a id="crf0021" href="#bib0014" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0014">14</a>], direct analysis in real time (DART) [<a id="crf0022" href="#bib0015" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0015">15</a>], desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) [<a id="crf0023" href="#bib0016" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0016">16</a>,<a id="crf0024" href="#bib0017" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0017">17</a>], matrix-assisted laser desorption electrospray ionization (MALDESI) [<a id="crf0025" href="#bib0018" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0018">18</a>,<a id="crf0026" href="#bib0019" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0019">19</a>], and acoustic mist ionization (AMI) [<a id="crf0027" href="#bib0020" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0020 bib0021 bib0022">20–22</a>]. Despite their rapid analysis speeds, many of these approaches necessitate sample treatment, introducing additional cost and automation complexity. Moreover, the integration of sampling and ionization as a single step may compromise ionization performance, leading to challenges like matrix effects and limited coverage of the chemical space, restricting the applicability of these technologies in complex sample matrix analysis.</div><div id="para0004" role="paragraph">To tackle these challenges, the acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS) technology has emerged as a solution for high-throughput analysis [<a id="crf0029" href="#bib0023" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0023">23</a>,<a id="crf0030" href="#bib0024" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0024">24</a>]. Utilizing the open-port interface (OPI), AEMS segregates the high-throughput and high-precision sampling facilitated by acoustic droplet ejection (ADE) from the classic electrospray ionization (ESI) process. This innovative approach enables the retention of advantages from both high-throughput MS and LC-MS simultaneously. Since its introduction, it has been utilized in a wide range of high-throughput analysis workflows including drug discovery and development [<a id="crf0031" href="#bib0025" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0025 bib0026 bib0027 bib0028">25–28</a>], synthetic biology [<a id="crf0033" href="#bib0029" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0029">29</a>,<a id="crf0034" href="#bib0030" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0030">30</a>], and the poultry industry [<a id="crf0035" href="#bib0031" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0031">31</a>]. One of the unique features of the AEMS technology is the in-line matrix dilution. In this process, the nanoliter-sized sample droplet is captured within the carrier solvent being delivered at a flow rate of 300-600 µL/min, the sample undergoes substantial dilution before ionization.

This technology employs an OPI to connect the high-speed acoustic droplet ejection with ESI-MS.

The noncontact sampling facilitated by ADE and the continuous self-washing feature of OPI effectively eliminate cross-contaminations between samples. The in-line dilution of sample droplets within the carrier solvent in the OPI significantly reduces ionization suppression, enabling the direct analysis of complex samples from incubation buffers without the need for sample cleanup.</div><div id="para0008" role="paragraph">The prototype AEMS systems used in this study consisted of a SCIEX ZenoTOF 7600 or Triple Quad 6500+ mass spectrometer equipped with a standard OptiFlow ESI source and an Echo MS module (SCIEX, Concord, ON, Canada) housing the modified solvent delivering system.

Large-scale sample analyses, often involving tens to hundreds of microplates per day, are typically conducted in a fully automated environment without human intervention. Ensuring data quality and sample integrity in such high-throughput settings requires a robust system to facilitate uninterrupted screening. In the AEMS system, nanoliter-sized samples are acoustically ejected from microplates, captured in the continuous carrier flow within the OPI. The in-line dilution of sample matrices within the OPI, up to several thousand folds before the ESI process, enables direct analysis of the original reaction incubation buffer. This unique feature significantly simplifies sample preparation and method development, facilitating the analysis of unstable analytes present in complex buffers, such as those retaining protein activity in covalent binders screening workflows [<a id="crf0041" href="#bib0033" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0033">33</a>]. Moreover, it enables the investigation of reaction kinetics in real-time (<i>in situ</i> kinetics study) during the ongoing reaction [<a id="crf0042" href="#bib0024" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0024">24</a>].</div><div id="para0010" role="paragraph">In the AEMS system, organic carrier solvents such as methanol and acetonitrile are commonly employed due to their low viscosity, allowing high flow rates and analytical throughput [<a id="crf0043" href="#bib0032" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0032">32</a>]. However, the low solubility of salts and proteins in these solvents poses a risk of matrix precipitation within the OPI after prolonged accumulation of large-scale sample ejections, despite the ejection volume for each sample being in the nanoliter range. This raises the potential for partial clogging of the transfer tube linking the OPI to the ion source, potentially compromising data quality. The number of samples analyzed before the transfer-line starts showing signs of clogging depends on factors such as sample composition, carrier solvent type and flow rate, and ejection volume for each sample. Studies indicate stable signal performance through 400,000 ejections in a typical high-throughput screening assay with methanol as the carrier solvent [<a id="crf0044" href="#bib0035" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0035">35</a>]. Assays using acetonitrile, which has a lower salt solubility than methanol, may exhibit the Z’ starting to fall below 0.5 for poor assay robustness after approximately 46,000 ejections [<a id="crf0045" href="#bib0025" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0025">25</a>].</div><div id="para0011" role="paragraph">As the precipitates are typically aqueous-soluble, using a solution containing water has been reported to redissolve salts and improve electrode lifetime [<a id="crf0046" href="#bib0034" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0034">34</a>].

However, these reported OPI washing processes either require manual disassembly of the electrode and flushing the tubing with a separate pump [<a id="crf0048" href="#bib0025" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0025">25</a>] or involve bypassing the solvent delivery system in the integrated AEMS system, relying on heavily customized automation software to control the additional solvent pumps and the ADE module of the system [<a id="crf0049" href="#bib0025" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0025">25</a>]. In this study, we introduce a fully integrated AEMS system with automatic scheduled OPI cleaning to enhance system robustness.</div><div id="para0012" role="paragraph">Several requirements guide the development of this automatic OPI cleaning feature. The washing process should ideally not add any additional assay execution time and be seamlessly integrated during the plate exchange process. In the AEMS system, this plate exchange takes approximately 3 minutes, including plate extension to the unloading position, plate swapping by the automation arm, retraction of the new plate into the system together with deionization, plate classification, and the pre-screening plate survey. The integrated control software receives a signal indicating that plate analysis has finished, triggering the OPI washing process immediately and ensuring completion before the screening of the next plate. In this study, the washing cycle is controlled to finish within this 3-minute plate exchange duration, with flexibility for adjustment based on specific sample buffers or automation-controlled plate swapping speeds. Another requirement is the effectiveness of the OPI cleaning, which typically necessitates the use of a different solvent composition (containing more aqueous component) from the carrier solvent, requiring a separate set of solvent delivering pump systems. Additionally, considering the higher viscosity of water, precautions are taken to avoid potential OPI overflow that might contaminate the coupling fluid of the acoustic ejection module. The system design addressing these requirements will be detailed in the following section.</div></section><section id="sec-3-2"><h3>3.2 System modification and control synchronization</h3><div id="para0013" role="paragraph">In the standard AEMS system, the carrier solvent is drawn from the solvent bottle to the degasser using a gear pump to eliminate potential dissolved gases. The degasser outlet is directly connected to a pump equipped with a flowmeter for precise and accurate solvent delivery. The pump outlet is linked to a diverter valve, controlling the flow either to the OPI for AEMS operations or to a waste container during pump purging. In this study, a second, independently controlled pump system was introduced to deliver the washing solvent. This secondary system includes an additional solvent bottle, degasser, and pump. Calibration of flow rates for water, methanol, and acetonitrile combinations is equipped to ensure precise control over a broad range of washing solvents. Two 6-port rotary valves are employed to achieve different flow conditions (<a id="crf0050" href="#fig0001">Figure 1</a>A). <a id="crf0051" href="#fig0001">Figure 1</a>B (1B/2A) illustrates the assay screening mode, where the carrier solvent is pumped directly to the OPI. <a id="crf0052" href="#fig0001">Figure 1</a>C (1A/2A) represents the standard purging mode, where the carrier solvent is pumped directly into the waste bottle.

Consequently, the OPI washing process seamlessly integrates between plate screenings without extending assay execution time. This process is initiated by the system control software once data acquisition concludes. During the OPI washing process, the washing solvent is aspirated to the ESI ion source using the same Venturi pull as during the plate screening. Due to the higher viscosity of the washing solvent containing water, OPI overflow may occur if the same flow rate is used for the washing solvent as the carrier solvent, leading to contamination of the coupling water in the acoustic ejection system. To address this challenge, specific considerations have been incorporated into the method design.</div><div class="figure-wrap"><figure id="fig0002" class="graphic"><a class="icon-full-screen" href="/cms/10.1016/j.slast.2024.100227/asset/03977ed2-72c9-4e70-b696-e6e23e4e8b15/main.assets/gr2_lrg.jpg" target="_blank" title="View full size image in a new tab"><img alt="Figure 2" src="/cms/10.1016/j.slast.2024.100227/asset/ae378187-95d9-4f5b-8b92-0ef413f026b4/main.assets/gr2.jpg" height="461" width="508" data-viewer-src="/cms/10.1016/j.slast.2024.100227/asset/03977ed2-72c9-4e70-b696-e6e23e4e8b15/main.assets/gr2_lrg.jpg" loading="lazy" /></a><figcaption class="figure__caption__body"><div id="fig0002-title" class="figure__title"><span class="label figure__label">Figure 2</span> <span class="figure__title__text">Flow profiles of an OPI cleaning cycle.</span></div></figcaption></figure></div><div id="para0015" role="paragraph">Initially, a lower flow rate for the washing solvent (phase 2) than the carrier solvent is employed. The chosen washing solvent flow rate is determined based on the viscosity relationship between the carrier flow and the washing solvent. For example, if the operational carrier methanol (0.55 cp) flow rate is approximately 450 µL/min, the washing solvent (50:50 methanol-water) with approximately three times the viscosity (1.54 cp) could be adjusted to a flow rate of about 150 µL/min without causing OPI overflow. Additionally, a liquid removal step is applied before each solvent exchange (phase 1 and 3) to prevent mixing between carrier and washing solvents, as the combination of organic solvent and water may lead to a nonlinear increase in viscosity higher than water [<a id="crf0056" href="#bib0032" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0032">32</a>,<a id="crf0057" href="#bib0036" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0036">36</a>].

This approach also led to a notable reduction in the frequency of electrode replacements, enhancing the efficiency of uninterrupted screening.</div><div class="figure-wrap"><figure id="fig0005" class="graphic"><a class="icon-full-screen" href="/cms/10.1016/j.slast.2024.100227/asset/1d7172dc-fc3f-40a4-8ea8-b06af852191b/main.assets/gr5_lrg.jpg" target="_blank" title="View full size image in a new tab"><img alt="Figure 5" src="/cms/10.1016/j.slast.2024.100227/asset/93ee58cc-9aba-4b76-9fc2-7c67da7c774a/main.assets/gr5.jpg" height="746" width="791" data-viewer-src="/cms/10.1016/j.slast.2024.100227/asset/1d7172dc-fc3f-40a4-8ea8-b06af852191b/main.assets/gr5_lrg.jpg" loading="lazy" /></a><figcaption class="figure__caption__body"><div id="fig0005-title" class="figure__title"><span class="label figure__label">Figure 5</span> <span class="figure__title__text">The comparison of AEMS system robustness.

Demonstrating an extended electrode lifetime with pharmacology high-throughput screening assay conditions, this novel cleaning approach ensures sustained system performance over prolonged periods, mitigating risks associated with unmonitored, automation-controlled workflows. The demonstrated feature highlights the efficacy of the cleaning system in enhancing AEMS reliability, thereby facilitating its broader application in diverse high-throughput analysis workflows.</div></section><section id="sec-5"><h2>CRediT authorship contribution statement</h2><div id="para0018a" role="paragraph"><b>Heguang Ji:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Xuejiao Yin:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Wan Ee Ang:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Abdullah Bin Rawshan:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Susan Gay:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Jing Ma:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Chiu Cheong Aw:</b> Writing – review & editing, Data curation. <b>Chang Liu:</b> Writing – review & editing, Writing – original draft, Investigation, Conceptualization.</div></section><section id="conflict" class="core-conflict"><h2>Declaration of competing interest</h2><div id="para0019" role="paragraph">The authors declare the following financial interests/personal relationships which may be considered as potential competing interests:</div><div id="para0020" role="paragraph">Heguang Ji, Xuejiao, Yin, Wan Ee Ang, Abdullah Bin Rawshan, Susan Gay, Jing Ma, Chiu Cheong Aw, Chang Liu reports a relationship with SCIEX that includes: employment.
