Probe electrospray ionization (PESI) is a modified version of conventional electrospray ionization (ESI), where the capillary for sample solution transferring is replaced by a solid needle with a sharp tip. PESI was first introduced by Kenzo Hiraoka et al. in 2007[1]. Compared with conventional electrospray ionization, high salt tolerance and direct sampling and low sample consumption can be found with PESI. Of course, PESI is not a continuous process at all. Normally, the needle for sampling and spraying can be driven up and down under a frequency of 3-5 Hz.
