A rapid, simple and selective method involving direct separation by gas chromatography (GC) with electron ionization mass spectrometry (EI-MS) was employed to determine some N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs). Using GC/EI-MS, simultaneous separation and characterization of AHLs were possible without prior derivatization. Informative fragmentation patterns were obtained to identify the structures of N-acyl chains of AHLs. Electron ionization resulted in a common fragmentation pattern with the most abundant ion at m/z 143 and other minor peaks at m/z 71, 57, and 43. The presence of AHLs in extracts of Burkholderia cepacia strains was achieved in selected ion monitoring mode by using the prominent fragment at m/z 143. 相似文献

De novo site-specific 13C and 15N backbone and sidechain resonance assignments are presented for uniformly enriched E. coli thioredoxin, established using two-dimensional homo- and heteronuclear solid-state magic angle spinning NMR correlation spectroscopy. Backbone dihedral angles and secondary structure were derived from the statistical analysis of the secondary chemical shifts, and are in good agreement with solution values for the intact full-length thioredoxin, with the exception of a small number of residues located at the termini of the individual secondary structure elements. A large number of cross-peaks observed in the DARR spectra with long mixing times correspond to the pairs of carbon atoms separated by 4-6 angstroms, suggesting that DARR could be efficiently employed for observation of medium- and long-range correlations. The 108 amino acid residue E. coli thioredoxin is the largest uniformly enriched protein assigned to this degree of completeness by solid-state NMR spectroscopy to date. It is anticipated that with a combination of two-dimensional correlation experiments and high magnetic fields, resonance assignments and secondary structure can be generally derived for other noncrystalline proteins. 相似文献

The successful expansion which the scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has had is dependent on its ability to examine surfaces on a sub-nanometric scale and on providing in situ (i.e. in the presence of bulk electrolyte) sample examination. In addition to the ability to study metals and semiconductors in vacuo, the application of the technique to surfaces in contact with an electrolytic solution has prompted increased interest amongst electrochemists. We discuss herein the technique, with particular reference to advances in electrochemical applications. A new scanning tunneling microscope for operation in electrolytic environments is described. Atomic force microscopy, scanning electrochemical microscopy and scanning ion-conducting microscopy are compared with the STM. 相似文献

As taurine is a very important compound involved in a large number of metabolic processes, it is naturally present in the mammal tissues and is often deliberately added in some foods as a fortifying component. A detailed knowledge of taurine metabolic roles in biological systems can be obtained only if a sensitive, reliable and rapid analytical method is available. This article describes the successful application of high-performance anion-exchange chromatography coupled with integrated pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-IPAD) for taurine determination in egg white and yolk samples, as well extracts of human serum and urine. Applications are shown for determination of taurine in soft drinks and pharmaceutical preparations where the taurine content was evaluated by standard additions. These results were achieved without prior derivatization of taurine. 相似文献

Two synthetic precursor peptides, H2N-CVGIW and H2N-LVMCCVGIW, involved in the quorum sensing of Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1, were characterized by mass spectrometry (MS) with electrospray ionization and 7-T Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (ESI-FTICR) instrument. Cell-free bacterial supernatant solutions were analyzed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with ESI-FTICR MS to verify the occurrence of both pentapeptide and nonapeptide in the bacterial broth. The structural characterization of both protonated peptides was performed by infrared multiphoton dissociation using a continuous CO2 laser source at a wavelength of 10.6 μm. As their fragmentation behavior cannot be directly derived from the primary peptide structure, all anomalous fragments were interpreted as neutral loss of amino acids from the interior of both peptides, i.e., loss of V, G, VG and M, MC, V, CC, from H2N-CVGIW and H2N-LVMCCVGIW, respectively. Mechanisms of this scrambling are proposed. FTICR MS provides accurate masses of all fragment ions with very low absolute mass errors (<1.6 ppm), which facilitated the reliable assignment of their elemental compositions. The resolving power was more than sufficient to resolve closely isobaric product ions with routine subparts per million mass accuracies. Only the occurrence of pentapeptide was found in the cell-free culture of L. plantarum, grown in Waymouth’s medium broth, with a low content of 5.2?±?2.6 μM by external calibration. Most of it was present as oxidized H2N-CVGIW, that is, the soluble disulfide pentapeptide with a level tenfold higher (i.e., 50?±?4 μM, n?=?3). Figure

An amperometric biosensor for the determination of l-lysine based on l-lysine-α-oxidase immobilized by co-crosslinking on a platinum electrode previously modified by an overoxidized polypyrrole film is described. The optimization of experimental parameters, such as pH and flow rate, permitted to minimize significantly substrate interferences even using a low specific, commercial enzyme. The relevant biases introduced in the measurement of lysine were just about 1% for l-arginine, l-histidine and l-ornithine, roughly 4% for l-phenylalanine and l-tyrosine. The developed approach allowed linear lysine responses from 0.02 mM up to 2 mM with a sensitivity of 41 nA/(mM × mm2) and a detection limit of 4 μM (S/N = 3). No appreciable loss in lysine sensitivity was observed up to about 40 days. Allowing polypyrrole layer to remove interference from electroactive compounds, the present method revealed suitable to detect l-lysine in a pharmaceutical and cheese sample, showing a good agreement with the expected values. 相似文献

Carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) is a dipeptide regarded as an important molecular marker of the presence of processed animal proteins including meat and bone meal in animal feed. For its identification and quantification a sensitive and selective method by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography coupled with integrated pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-IPAD) was developed. The assay is based on isocratic elution with 100 mM NaOH as the mobile phase. Interferences of real matrices were efficiently removed; carnosine could be determined at the concentration ranges 0.1-100 microM with a rather low detection limit of 0.23 ng. Unlike feeds for dogs and cats, no carnosine peak was observed in all examined feeds for ruminants. The good analytical characteristics allowed camosine determination down to 5 microg/g of feed. 相似文献

Many metabolomic applications use gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) under standard 70 eV electron ionization (EI) parameters. However, the abundance of molecular ions is often extremely low, impeding the calculation of elemental compositions for the identification of unknown compounds. On changing the beam‐steering voltage of the ion source, the relative abundances of molecular ions at 70 eV EI were increased up to ten‐fold for alkanes, fatty acid methyl esters and trimethylsilylated metabolites, concomitant with 2‐fold absolute increases in ion intensities. We have compared the abundance, mass accuracy and isotope ratio accuracy of molecular species in EI with those in chemical ionization (CI) with methane as reagent gas under high‐mass tuning. Thirty‐three peaks of a diverse set of trimethylsilylated metabolites were analyzed in triplicate, resulting in 342 ion species ([M+H]+, [M–CH3]+ for CI and [M]+ . , [M–CH3]+ . for EI). On average, CI yielded 8‐fold more intense molecular species than EI. Using internal recalibration, average mass errors of 1.8 ± 1.6 mm/z units and isotope ratio errors of 2.3 ± 2.0% (A+1/A ratio) and 1.7 ± 1.8% (A+2/A ratio) were obtained. When constraining lists of calculated elemental compositions by chemical and heuristic rules using the Seven Golden Rules algorithm and PubChem queries, the correct formula was retrieved as top hit in 60% of the cases and within the top‐3 hits in 80% of the cases.
