Background Femtosecond (fs) Laser Ionisation Mass Spectrometry (fs-LIMS) on colon tissues are described and investigated using ionization/fragmentation processes in details to present a new application in this study. Linear Time of Flight (L-TOF) mass analyzer was utilized to investigate paraffin-embedded human tissue in this study. The effect of fs laser intensity on the spectral characteristics was investigated and interpreted due to mass spectra obtained using 800 nm wavelength with 90 fs pulses at 1 kHz repetition rate. Objectives Mass spectra of tissues were recorded from L-TOF system and then analyzed by performing a statistical approach called Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The fs-LIMS method applied is proposed as a new and pioneering technology to analyze tissues using L-TOF system, as a human free fast and reliable intra-operative cancer diagnosis method for guiding surgeon to clean the edges of cancerous tissues to be applied during the surgical operation, for pathological examinations. Fs-LIMS provides some unique diagnosis opportunities to investigate biochemical characteristics of cancerous tissues leading to obtain sensitive, fast, and reliable results. The analysis of tissue is based on distribution of molecular ion (m/z) peaks in low mass region (
