Draft article concerning our work about the use of Kendrick mass defect for filtering mass spectrometry imaging data. Kendrick mass defect (KMD) analysis is widely used for helping the detection and identification of chemically related compounds based on exact mass measurements. We report here the use of KMD as a criterion for filtering complex mass spectrometry data. The method enables an automated, faster and efficient data processing, enabling the reconstruction of 2D distributions of family of homologous compound in MSI images. We show that the KMD filtering, based on a homemade software, is suitable for low resolution and high resolution MSI data. This method has been successfully applied to two different types of samples, bacteria co-cultures and brain tissue section.

We report here the use of KMD as a criterion for filtering complex mass spectrometry dataset. The method enables an automated, easy and efficient data processing, enabling the reconstruction of 2D distributions of family of homologous compounds from MSI images. We show that the KMD filtering, based on an in-house software, is suitable and robust for high resolution (full width at half-maximum, FWHM, at <i>m/z</i> 410 of 20 000) and very high-resolution (FWHM, at <i>m/z</i> 410 of 160 000) MSI data.

The combination of 13C-isotopic labeling and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) offers an approach to analyze metabolic flux in situ. However, combining isotopic labeling and MSI presents technical challenges ranging from sample preparation, label incorporation, data collection, and analysis. Isotopic labeling and MSI individually create large, complex data sets, and this is compounded when both methods are combined. Therefore, analyzing isotopically labeled MSI data requires streamlined procedures to support biologically meaningful interpretations. Using currently available software and techniques, here we describe a workflow to analyze 13C-labeled isotopologues of the membrane lipid and storage oil lipid intermediate―phosphatidylcholine (PC). Our results with embryos of the oilseed crops, Camelina sativa and Thlaspi arvense (pennycress), demonstrated greater 13C-isotopic labeling in the cotyledons of developing embryos compared with the embryonic axis. Greater isotopic enrichment in PC molecular species with more saturated and longer chain fatty acids suggest different flux patterns related to fatty acid desaturation and elongation pathways. The ability to evaluate MSI data of isotopically labeled plant embryos will facilitate the potential to investigate spatial aspects of metabolic flux in situ.
