In this study we tried to detect biomarkers of human age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) using imaging mass spectrometry (IMS). The optimization of conventional matrices onto the surface of biological section and the application of metal core nanoparticles as a matrix enabled us to detect several lipids and fatty acids by IMS analysis. We revealed the specific biomarker from ARMD compared with normal tissue section.
