Abstract Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging is an emerging powerful technique in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics research. Despite recent progress in mass-spectrometry-based localization and relative quantification of small-molecule drugs and their metabolites in tissue, improved methods for drug extraction/ ionization are required. Furthermore, relative quantification of drugs by mass spectrometry imaging in larger rodent cohorts is a necessary proof-of-concept study to demonstrate the utility of such a workflow in an industrial setting. Using as an example the tyrosine kinase inhibitor dasatinib, a leukemia drug, we demonstrate that inclusion of dimethyl sulfoxide in

standard matrix solutions significantly improves ion intensity in mass spectrometry images and reveals enrichment of the drug in mouse kidney medulla. We furthermore show in a time-course study in multiple mice that normalization against a deuterated internal standard, dasatinib-D 8, which is applied together with the matrix, makes possible relative quantification of the drug that correlates well with canonical liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry based drug quantification.

Introduction Since its first application in drug distribution studies in 2003, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) imaging (MSI) has matured into an important analytical technology in drug metabolism and pharm
