Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to methods and apparatus for determining components and associated conditions in a dermatological sample, and preparing personalized cosmetics or treatments. In particular, the present disclosure relates to the use of surface desorption ionization-mass spectrometry methods and apparatus to assay dermatological samples. The method and apparatus can allow real time analysis of sample molecules, such as in skin and hair, for molecular diagnostics in dermatology, dermatopathology and the preparation of personalized cosmetics.

Claim (Index 11):
A method of providing a personalized cosmetic product to a customer, comprising:\n (i) receiving dermatological data from a dermatological analysis of a sample provided by the customer, (ii) obtaining ingredients for producing the personalized cosmetic product; (iii) generating a customized cosmetic product formula using the ingredients and dermatological data; and (iv) preparing the customized cosmetic product; wherein: steps (i)-(iv) are performed in less than 30 minutes; and the dermatological data is received by:\n (a) generating sample ions from the customer's sample using a surface desorption ionization source operated at or near atmospheric pressure; \n (b) receiving the ions into a mass spectrometer operated at or near atmospheric pressure; and \n (c) identifying at least one dermatological related compound in the sample from the results from the mass spectrometer.
