A system and method is disclosed for extracting a sample from a sample surface. A sample is provided and a sample surface receives the sample which is deposited on the sample surface. A hydrophobic material is applied to the sample surface, and one or more devices are configured to dispense a liquid on the sample, the liquid dissolving the sample to form a dissolved sample material, and the one or more devices are configured to extract the dissolved sample material from the sample surface.

1. A system for extracting a sample analyte with a liquid, comprising: a sample collection device comprising a continuous portion of porous sample collection material, the porous sample collection material being capable of absorbing the sample such that the sample penetrates below the surface of the porous sample collection material;predetermined regions of the continuous porous sample collection material defining barrier regions for containing the flow of sample extraction liquid;a hydrophobic material coating the porous sample collection material in the barrier regions for containing the flow of sample extraction liquid, the hydrophobic material comprising patterns in the porous sample collection material forming sample wells prior to depositing the sample, the sample wells being non-reactive with the analyte;a liquid extraction surface sampling probe for applying the extraction liquid to the surface of the porous sample collection material, and for withdrawing extraction liquid containing extracted sample from the same surface of the porous sample collection material through the liquid extraction surface sampling probe; andfurther comprising ionizing the extracted dissolved sample material downstream of the porous material and the liquid extraction surface sampling probe. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein the porous sample collection material comprises a hydrophilic material. 3. The system of claim 1 wherein the porous sample collection material is selected from a group consisting of paper, fabric, porous ceramic material and a combination thereof. 4. The system of claim 1 wherein a substrate provides mechanical support to the porous sample collection material. 5. The system of claim 1 wherein the hydrophobic material is selected from a group consisting of silicone, fluorinated alkane, and waxes. 6. The system of claim 1 further comprising hydrophobic barriers and moats to contain overflow of the sample from the sample wells. 7.

The method of claim 14 wherein the liquid comprises a solvent that dissolves the sample. 26. The method of claim 1 wherein a device for ionizing the dissolved sample material is selected from the group consisting of an electrospray ionization device, an atmospheric chemical ionization device, an inductively coupled plasma ionization device, and an atmospheric photo ionization device. 27. The method of claim 26 wherein the ionized dissolved sample material is analyzed by a mass spectrometer. 28. The system of claim 1, wherein the barrier regions are at least in part below a surface of the porous sample collection material. 29. The system of claim 28, wherein the barrier regions define a plurality of sample wells in the sample collection material. 30. The system of claim 29, wherein barrier regions define side barrier regions and a connected bottom barrier region. 31. The system of claim 30, wherein the side barrier regions of the wells are surrounded by uncoated porous sample collection material to define an overflow region. 32.
