Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) provides unique capabilities for elemental and molecular compositional analysis of a wide variety of surfaces. This relatively new technique is finding increasing applications in analyses concerned with determining the chemical composition of various polymer surfaces, identifying the composition of organic and inorganic residues on surfaces and the localization of molecular or structurally significant secondary ions signals from biological tissues. TOF-SIMS analyses are typically performed under low primary ion dose (static SIMS) conditions and hence the secondary ions formed often contain significant structural information.This paper will present an overview of current TOF-SIMS instrumentation with particular emphasis on the stigmatic imaging ion microscope developed in the authors’ laboratory. This discussion will be followed by a presentation of several useful applications of the technique for the characterization of polymer surfaces and biological tissues specimens. Particular attention in these applications will focus on how the analytical problem impacts the performance requirements of the mass spectrometer and vice-versa.

Abstract A 6 y/o girl with recurrent multifocal glioblastoma received 3 times of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)–engineered T cells targeting the tumor-associated antigen HER2. Multiple infusions of CAR T cells were administered over 30 days through intraventricular delivery routes. It was not associated with any toxic effects of grade 3 or higher. After BNCT and CAR T-cell treatment, regression of all existing intracranial lesions were observed, along with corresponding increases in levels of cytokines and immune cells in the cerebrospinal fluid, but new lesions recurred soon after the treatment. This clinical response continued for 14 months after the initiation of first recurrence.
