Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometric Analysis of Aqueous Polysulfide Solutions

The speciation of polysulfides in aqueous solutions was investigated by electrospray – ion trap and electrospray – time of flight mass spectrometry. The pH dependence of the observed total dissolved polysulfides concentration followed the trend calculated based on reported thermodynamic constants. However, the observed species distributions were substantially different from those calculated based on thermodynamic coefficients derived by UV spectroscopy. Notably, large abundances of heptasulfide, octasulfide and nonasulfide species were observed throughout the pH range 6 to 11. The large molecular weight anions had not been reported before in aqueous solutions although indirect evidence had suggested their existence.

Coupling Electrochemistry with Probe Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

A new coupling of electrochemistry with mass spectrometry (MS) using probe electrospray ionization (PESI) is presented. Due to the high salt tolerance of PESI, the detection of electrochemical reaction products in room‐temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) is realized for the first time. Furthermore, PESI‐MS allows the analysis of electrochemical reaction products on different or multiple electrode surfaces. In addition, peptides and proteins fractionated through isoelectric focusing (IEF) in the presence of an external electric field can also be directly analyzed by using PESI‐MS, suggesting a new and rapid characterization means for the IEF technique. This study reveals the versatility of EC/PESI‐MS, which could have an impact in electrochemistry and bioanalysis fields.     

Online Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometric Monitoring of Protease-Catalyzed Reactions in Real Time

Although there are a lot of well established methods for monitoring enzyme-catalyzed reactions, most of them are based on changes in spectroscopic properties during the conversion of substrates to products. However, reactions without optical changes are common, which are inapplicable to these spectroscopic methods. As an alternative technique for enzymologic research, mass spectrometry (MS) is favored due to its specificity, sensitivity, and the ability to obtain stoichiometric information. In this work, probe electrospray ionization (PESI) source coupled with a time of flight mass spectrometer was employed to monitor some typical protease-catalyzed reactions, including pepsinolysis and trypsinolysis of cytochrome c in real time. Due to the high electrical conductivity of each reaction system, corona discharges are likely to occur, which would decrease intensities of mass spectrometric signals. An ultra-fine sampling probe and an auxiliary vapor spray were adopted to prevent corona discharges. Experimental results from peptic and tryptic digestions of cytochrome c showed different and characteristic catalytic pathways. With the data presented in this study, PESI-MS can be considered as a potential tool for real-time monitoring of enzymatic reactions because of its simplicity in instrumental configuration, wide applicability under harsh conditions, and flexibility in combination with other techniques.

Direct Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Biofluid Samples Using Slug‐Flow Microextraction Nano‐Electrospray Ionization

Direct mass spectrometry (MS) analysis of biofluids with simple procedures represents a key step in the translation of MS techniques to clinical and point‐of‐care applications. The current study reports the development of a single‐step method using slug‐flow microextraction and nano‐electrospray ionization for MS analysis of organic compounds in blood and urine. High sensitivity and quantitation precision have been achieved in the analysis of therapeutic and illicit drugs in 5 μL samples. Real‐time chemical derivatization has been incorporated for analyzing anabolic steroids. The monitoring of enzymatic functions has also been demonstrated with cholinesterase in wet blood. The reported study encourages the future development of disposable cartridges, which function with simple operation to replace the traditional complex laboratory procedures for MS analysis of biological samples.     

Direct Detection of Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products from Aqueous Samples with Thermally-Assisted Desorption Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

An ambient mass spectrometric method based on desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) has been developed to allow rapid, direct analysis of contaminated water samples, and the technique was evaluated through analysis of a wide array of pharmaceutical and personal care product (PPCP) contaminants. Incorporating direct infusion of aqueous sample and thermal assistance into the source design has allowed low ppt detection limits for the target analytes in drinking water matrices. With this methodology, mass spectral information can be collected in less than 1 min, consuming ~100 μL of total sample. Quantitative ability was also demonstrated without the use of an internal standard, yielding decent linearity and reproducibility. Initial results suggest that this source configuration is resistant to carryover effects and robust towards multi-component samples. The rapid, continuous analysis afforded by this method offers advantages in terms of sample analysis time and throughput over traditional hyphenated mass spectrometric techniques.     

Impurity Profiling of Dirithromycin by Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

The aim of this study was to characterize as much as possible the unknown peaks in the chromatogram obtained with a non-volatile LC-UV system, which was published earlier for the separation of dirithromycin and its related substances. For this purpose, each peak eluting from the non-volatile system was collected and transferred to a MS, after performing a desalting process. The desalting procedure uses a XTerra RP C₁₈ column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) and two mobile phases consisting of a mixture of water / 0.1% (v/v) formic acid and a mixture of acetonitrile / 0.1% (v/v) formic acid, respectively. Mass spectral data were acquired on an LCQ ion trap mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization source (ESI), operating in the positive ion mode. In addition to the thirteen already known compounds, seven new compounds were elucidated. Five impurities showed modifications at the amino group of the desosamine molecule, one an alteration at position C-9 and one a modification at position C-13 of the macrolide ring.     

电喷雾内部萃取电离质谱直接分析蒜瓣组织的研究

固态复杂基体样品的直接电离一般仅发生在样品浅层表面,对固体内部深层物质的质谱分析往往需将样品破碎后才能进行。本研究以蒜瓣样品为例,无需样品预处理,带电的甲醇溶液以2μL/min持续流经蒜瓣深层组织,内部组织中的化学物质选择性地溶解到流动液中,并在蒜瓣组织的尖端形成电喷雾,产生相应气态离子供后续质谱分析。在正离子检测模式下,实验记录了两种蒜瓣样品(共24个)、经不同方式贮存加工后的同种蒜瓣样品(共36个)在m/z 50~2000范围内的化学指纹谱图,并将指纹谱图数据进行主成分分析( PCA),获得了令人满意的分组结果。研究表明,电喷雾内部萃取电离质谱( iEESI-MS)可以直接获取蒜瓣内部组织生物化学信息,鉴定蒜瓣组织中重要的化学成分(如蒜氨酸、蒜素、精氨酸、多糖等),快速识别蒜瓣组织中代谢组分的变化。本方法无需样品预处理、操作简单、分析速度快(单个样品分析时间小于2 min),最大程度避免了生物组织分析过程中活性物质受环境作用(如酸解、空气氧化等)的降解,有望为生物组织样品的代谢组学研究提供一种直接、快速的质谱分析方法。

In-Syringe Electrokinetic Protein Removal from Biological Samples prior to Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

Here, an electrokinetic extraction (EkE) syringe is presented allowing for on-line electrokinetic removal of serum proteins before ESI-MS. The proposed concept is demonstrated by the determination of pharmaceuticals from human serum within minutes, with sample preparation limited to a 5× dilution of the sample in the background electrolyte (BGE) and application of voltage, both of which can be performed in-syringe. Signal enhancements of 3.6–32 fold relative to direct infusion of diluted serum and up to 10.8 fold enhancement, were obtained for basic and acidic pharmaceuticals, respectively. Linear correlations for the basic drugs by EkE-ESI-MS/MS were achieved, covering the necessary clinical range with LOQs of 5.3, 7.8, 6.1, and 17.8 ng mL⁻¹ for clomipramine, chlorphenamine, pindolol, and atenolol, respectively. For the acidic drugs, the EkE-ESI-MS LOQs were 3.1 μg mL⁻¹ and 2.9 μg mL⁻¹ for naproxen and paracetamol, respectively. The EkE-ESI-MS and EkE-ESI-MS/MS methods showed good accuracy (%found of 81 % to 120 %), precision (≤20 %), and linearity (r>0.997) for all the studied drugs in spiked serum samples.
