Ce travail porte sur la fabrication d'un support inorganique de nanofils de silicium dédié à la détection sensible de biomolécules par désorption/ionisation laser (LDI) en spectrométrie de masse (MS). Cette technique, contrairement à l'analyse LDI assistée par matrice (MALDI), permet de s'affranchir des ions parasites de la matrice organique qui interfèrent avec les molécules de masses inférieures à 700 Da. Le support de nanofils optimal montre une haute sensibilité ...
