A whole-mount (WM) preparation protocol was developed to visualize lipidomic distributions of the organoids' surface. Using poly-l-lysine coated slides for high-throughput analysis, the method preserved organoid integrity and distinguished breast cancer organoids (BCOs) from normal breast organoids (NBOs) based on their unique lipidomic profiles using autofocusing scanning microprobe matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (SMALDI) mass spectrometry imaging.
