Ambient mass spectrometry is useful for analyzing compounds that would be affected by other chemical procedures. Poison frogs are known to sequester alkaloids from their diet, but the sequestration pathway is unknown. Here, we describe methods for whole-body cryosectioning of frogs and use desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry imaging (DESI-MSI) to map the orally administered alkaloid histrionicotoxin 235A in a whole-body section of the poison frog Dendrobates tinctorius. Our results show that whole-body cryosectioning
