About
Daniel Eikel is a mass spectrometry scientist whose work centers on advancing ambient ionization and surface analysis techniques for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. His most notable contribution is the development and characterization of Liquid Extraction Surface Analysis Mass Spectrometry (LESA-MS), a pioneering technique that integrates liquid extraction from solid surfaces with ambient nanoelectrospray ionization. This innovation enables direct, spatially resolved molecular profiling of biological tissues and other surfaces without extensive sample preparation, bridging the gap between imaging and traditional liquid chromatography. Eikel’s foundational chapter on LESA-MS, published in 2014, has garnered over 2 citations, establishing a key reference for researchers exploring in situ analysis. His work has been instrumental in enabling label-free drug distribution studies, metabolite mapping, and biomarker discovery directly from tissue sections. By simplifying complex workflows and improving sensitivity, Eikel has helped make ambient mass spectrometry more accessible for clinical and pharmaceutical research. His contributions continue to influence the growing field of surface analysis, offering powerful tools for understanding molecular landscapes in health and disease.
