Determination of Vitamin B3 Vitamer (Nicotinamide) and Vitamin B6 Vitamers in Human Hair Using LC-MS/MS

Water-soluble B vitamins participate in numerous crucial metabolic reactions and are critical for maintaining our health. Vitamin B deficiencies cause many different types of diseases, such as dementia, anaemia, cardiovascular disease, neural tube defects, Crohn’s disease, celiac disease, and HIV. Vitamin B3 deficiency is linked to pellagra and cancer, while niacin (or nicotinic acid) lowers low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglycerides in the blood and increases high-density lipoprotein (HDL). A highly sensitive and robust liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectroscopy (LC/MS-MS) method was developed to detect and quantify a vitamin B3 vitamer (nicotinamide) and vitamin B6 vitamers (pyridoxial 5′-phosphate (PLP), pyridoxal hydrochloride (PL), pyridoxamine dihydrochloride (PM), pridoxamine-5′-phosphate (PMP), and pyridoxine hydrochloride (PN)) in human hair samples of the UAE population. Forty students’ volunteers took part in the study and donated their hair samples. The analytes were extracted and then separated using a reversed-phase Poroshell EC-C18 column, eluted using two mobile phases, and quantified using LC/MS-MS system. The method was validated in human hair using parameters such as linearity, intra- and inter-day accuracy, and precision and recovery. The method was then used to detect vitamin B3 and B6 vitamers in the human hair samples. Of all the vitamin B3 and B6 vitamers tested, only nicotinamide was detected and quantified in human hair. Of the 40 samples analysed, 12 were in the range 100–200 pg/mg, 15 in the range 200–500 pg/mg, 9 in the range of 500–4000 pg/mg. The LC/MS-MS method is effective, sensitive, and robust for the detection of vitamin B3 and its vitamer nicotinamide in human hair samples. This developed hair test can be used in clinical examination to complement blood and urine tests for the long-term deficiency, detection, and quantification of nicotinamide.     

Identification and Study of Biomarkers from Novichok-Inhibited Butyrylcholinesterase in Human Plasma

To identify biomarkers of ethyl (1-(diethylamino)ethylidene)phosphoramidofluoridate (A234)- or methyl (1-(diethylamino)ethylidene)phosphoramidofluoridate (A232)-inhibited butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), we investigated nonapeptide adducts containing the active site serine, which plays a key role in enzyme activity, using LC-MS/HRMS. Biomarkers were acquired as expected, and they exhibited a significant amount of fragment ions from the inhibiting agent itself, in contrast to the MS2 spectra of conventional nerve agents. These biomarkers had a higher abundance of [M+2H]²⁺ ions than [M+H]⁺ ions, making doubly charged ions more suitable for trace analysis.     

Application of molecularly imprinted polymers to determine B1, B2, and B3 fumonisins in cereal products

The aim of this study was to develop an analytical method for qualitative and quantitative determination of the B₁, B_2, and B₃ fumonisins in cereal products. A LC coupled to an IT‐MS was used as the analytical instrument. The AFFINIMIP FumoZON Molecularly Imprinted Polymer SPE cartridges (Polyintell) were used to isolate fumonisins from the analyzed samples and the clean‐up step. Statistical parameters evaluated in some validation experiments were as follows: mean recovery 95–106%, precision <17% (expressed as recovery RSD). The developed method was used to determine fumonisins in 49 cereals (42 maize‐based and seven wheat‐based products). In most cases, concentrations of the studied compounds found in the analyzed samples were low. The highest total concentration of the B₁, B₂, and B₃ fumonisins was found in maize flour samples (range, 26–1102 μg/kg, mean 498 μg/kg).     

Quantification of Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis-Related Organic Acids in Human Urine Using LC-MS/MS

Urine organic acid contains water-soluble metabolites and/or metabolites—derived from sugars, amino acids, lipids, vitamins, and drugs—which can reveal a human’s physiological condition. These urine organic acids—hippuric acid, benzoic acid, phenylacetic acid, phenylpropionic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 4-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid, 3-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl propionic acid, and 3-indoleacetic acid—were the eligible candidates for the dysbiosis of gut microbiota. The aim of this proposal was to develop and to validate a liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) bioanalysis method for the nine organic acids in human urine. Stable-labeled isotope standard (creatinine-d₃) and acetonitrile were added to the urine sample. The supernatant was diluted with deionized water and injected into LC-MS/MS. This method was validated with high selectivity for the urine sample, a low limit of quantification (10–40 ng/mL), good linearity (r > 0.995), high accuracy (85.8–109.7%), and high precision (1.4–13.3%). This method simultaneously analyzed creatinine in urine, which calibrates metabolic rate between different individuals. Validation has been completed for this method; as such, it could possibly be applied to the study of gut microbiota clinically.

Identification and Quantification of Anthocyanin and Catechin Compounds in Purple Tea Leaves and Flakes

Tea is the first most popular beverage worldwide and is available in several selections such as black (fully oxidized), Oolong (partially oxidized) and green (non-oxidized), in addition to purple tea, an emerging variety derived from the same tea plant (Camellia sinensis). This study investigated purple tea leaves (non-oxidized) and flakes (water extractable) to thoroughly identify their composition of anthocyanins and catechins and to study the effect of a water extraction process on their compositional properties in comparison with green tea. Anthocyanin and catechin compounds were separated and quantified using UPLC, and their identity was confirmed using LC-MS/MS in positive and negative ionization modes. Delphinidin was the principal anthocyaninidin in purple tea, while cyanidin came in second. The major anthocyanin pigments in purple tea were delphinidin-coumaroyl-hexoside followed by delphinidin-3-galactoside and cyanidin-coumaroyl-hexoside. The water extraction process resulted in substantial reductions in anthocyanins in purple tea flakes. There were no anthocyanin compounds detected in green tea samples. Both purple and green tea types were rich in catechins, with green tea containing higher concentrations than purple tea. The main catechin in purple or green tea was epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) followed by either epicatechin gallate (ECG) or epigallocatechin (EGC), subject to tea type. The extraction process increased the concentration of catechins in both purple and green tea flakes. The results suggest that purple tea holds promise in making healthy brews, natural colorants and antioxidants and/or functional ingredients for beverages, cosmetics and healthcare industries due to its high content of anthocyanins and catechins.     

Separation of regioisomers and enantiomers of triacylglycerols containing branched fatty acids (iso and/or anteiso)

A combination of two chromatographic and one enzymatic methods was used for identification of the molecular species of triacylglycerols (TAGs) from Streptomyces avermitilis. Streptomyces avermitliswas cultured on various carbon sources and the ratio of iso- (i-FAs), anteiso- (ai-FAs), and straight-chain- (n-FAs) fatty acids was modified by precursor-directed biosynthesis. Saturated TAGs were separated from other lipids (including TAGs containing unsaturated FAs) using Ag⁺ ion cartridges. Analysis of TAGs wereperformed by RP-HPLC/ESI⁺ tandem mass spectrometry. Both the synthetically prepared sn-TAGs and the natural mixture of TAGmolecular species of wereseparated and identified by tandem MS. The structures of synthetic TAGs werefurther confirmed by pancreatic lipase, which cleaves sn-TAGs into sn-2-monoacylglycerols. The retention times (tR) of the individual regioisomers and enantiomers were found to be depend on the structure of the TAGs. If one branched acyl (iso or anteiso) is present in the TAG molecule, then the elution order is enantiomer (n/n/br), opposite enantiomer (br/n/n), regioisomer (n/br/n). In the case where two branched acyls are in the TAG molecule, the order of the elution is different, that is, br/n/br, n/br/br, br/br/n. In all cases, it was further demonstrated that tandem MS of either synthetically prepared TAGs or TAGs obtained from natural material, that is, n-16:0/ai-15:0/n-16:0 and i-16:0/n-15:0/i-16:0 are identical. Unfortunately, it is not possible to distinguish by ESI⁺ tandem MS such TAGs, which differ only in the branching of the acyls. The results of our analyses of TAGs are in good agreement with previously published data in other streptomycetes.     

LC‐ESI‐MS/MS analysis and pharmacokinetics of heterophyllin B,a cyclic octapeptide from Pseudostellaria heterophylla in rat plasma

Heterophyllin B (HB) is a cyclic octapeptide isolated from Pseudostellaria heterophylla. HB is used as the quality control index for evaluating P. heterophylla in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. A rapid and sensitive LC‐ESI‐MS/MS method was developed and validated for the analysis of HB in rat plasma. Sample preparation consisted of a solid‐phase extraction step for the removal of interference and preconcentration of the target analyte HB and the internal standard N‐acetylcysteine before chromatographic analysis by MS/MS detection. The separation of HB and N‐acetylcysteine was performed using a Hypersil GOLD^TM C₁₈ column and a mixture of methanol–water (60:40, v/v) containing 10 mmol/L ammonium formate and 0.1% formic acid as the mobile phase. The determination step was optimized in the selected reaction monitoring mode for the highly selective and sensitive quantitation of HB in rat plasma. Intra‐ and inter‐assay precision (as relative standard deviation) was ≤9.1%, and accuracy was between 92.6 and 102.7%. The validated method was successfully applied to quantify HB concentrations up to 7 h after tail intravenous injections of 2.08, 4.16 and 8.32 mg/kg HB in rats. The LC‐MS/MS method identified the relevant pharmacokinetic parameters of HB and its studied analog. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
