Abstract
The invention relates to a biological material molecular analysis device characterized in that it includes:—a laser (34) optionally using an optical parametric oscillator (OPO), configured to emit a wavelength between 2.5 ym and 12 put, said configured laser (34) being intended to ablate said biological material by ejecting charged and/or uncharged particles;—a mass spectrometer (31); and—a probe (S, 10) comprising at least one first analysis fiber (A, 14), connected to the laser (34), and a transfer tube (T, 21), connected to the mass spectrometer (31).
