Hippocampal CA1 areas of a 6-month rat treated neonatally with BMAA on PND 9–10, showing deposition of birefringent material within neurons (a) were collected using laser capture dissection (b). Examples of collected sample areas are shown in red and control tissue in green (c). The CA1 sample (d) and control tissue (e) were catapulted into the cap of the tube and directly treated with trypsin for a two-step digestion in the capture tubes, and LC-MS/MS was performed
