Embodiments of the present invention describe a MALDI (matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization) sample plate body that includes a reusable sample plate and a sample plate adapter that are releasably coupled to one another. In one particular embodiment, the sample plate and the sample plate adapter are releasably coupled to one another to form the MALDI sample plate body by a latch formed by a spring-loaded hook within the sample plate adapter and a recess shaped to accept the hook within the sample plate. The MALDI sample plate body may be formed by aligning the sample plate with the sample plate adapter and coupling the sample plate to the sample plate adapter to releasably couple the sample plate to the sample plate adapter.
