A sequential combination of reversed-phase liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) has been explored in order to perform separation and characterization of a multicomponent peptide mixture from the synthesis of leuprolide. The mixture was first analyzed and fractionated by LC–MS, and the collected fractions were subsequently separated by CE. Unambiguous identification of the electrophoretic peaks was achieved by injecting the collected fractions separately and spiking the leuprolide crude mixture. Furthermore, structural information about the components of the mixture provided by several semi-empirical migration models has been used to check the accuracy of the structures previously proposed by LC–MS. Combination of the two orthogonal techniques results in an enhancement of their individual selectivity characteristics. 相似文献

Triptorelin, a synthetic peptide hormone used in the treatment of prostate cancer by means of reduction in the action of male hormone testosterone, is studied here. The synthetic procedure commonly results in unwanted side products that require extensive purification and characterization of the synthesis mixture. The chromatographic separation of triptorelin from the crude mixture was developed by applying the linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) methodology previously developed, to optimize the composition of the mobile phase in order to avoid lengthy empirical optimization procedures. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry coupled to liquid chromatography (LC/ES-MS) was used to obtain reliable information on the inevitable side products. The knowledge of the identity of these impurities allows fast optimization of the synthetic procedure and also the therapeutic use of triptorelin peptide hormone. 相似文献

This paper describes a newly developed liquid chromatography–electrospray-mass spectrometry (LC–ES-MS) method for the quantitative determination of nine commonly used sulfonamides (sulfadiazine, sulfapyridine, sulfamerazine, sulfamethazine, sulfamonomethoxine, sulfisoxazole, sulfadimethoxine, sulfaquinoaline and sulfaphenazole) in meat. [M+H]+ and [M+Na]+ were the two major ions detected in positive ion mode. Selective ion monitoring was employed for quantitative determination. Satisfactory linearity, 0.1–10 μg ml−1, of each compound was obtained. Blank meat samples were fortified at levels between 50 and 500 μg kg−1. [Phenyl-13C6]sulfamethazine was used as internal standard. Sulfonamides were isolated from meat with a solvent extraction procedure and then determined by LC–ES-MS. The limits of detection were below 10 μg kg−1. The application of this newly developed method was demonstrated by analyzing various beef, pork and chicken samples from local markets. 相似文献

Native peptides and peptidomimetics can be synthesized in a routine way by rapid and efficient procedures. However, the final products always result in complex mixtures, in which the target peptide is contaminated with undesired side products and other impurities. Thus, it is imperative to develop analytical methods for the evaluation of the target peptide’s purity in order to obtain an effective, safe and legal pharmaceutical product. LC-ES-MS is used here in order to separate and characterize the side-products associated with several synthetic hormones with therapeutic interest: carbetocin, eledoisin, leuprolide, goserelin and triptorelin. General directions for LC-ES-MS analysis of the synthetic peptide mixtures are established. Mass information obtained offers a significant advantage for the purity assessment of therapeutic hormones and gives a key tool to enhance their process of synthesis. 相似文献

In order to separate and characterize the target peptide and the side-product peptide compounds of a synthesis mixture of the peptide hormone goserelin, liquid chromatography coupled to high-flow electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ES-MS) has been used. Goserelin is an important drug with recognized therapeutical application for palliative treatment of prostatic and breast carcinomas. Stepwise solid-phase peptide synthesis commonly results in unwanted side-products associated with incomplete peptide chains. Consequently, this procedure requires extensive purification and characterization of the final synthesis mixture. The method of linear solvation energy relationships has been applied to optimize the proportion of organic modifier of the mobile phase used in the established LC method. On the other hand, ES-MS has allowed rapid and reliable identification of the target peptide and the other impurities present in the goserelin synthesis products. 相似文献

In order to separate and characterize the target peptide and the side-product peptide compounds of a synthesis crude of the peptide hormone carbetocin, liquid chromatography coupled to high-flow electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC/eS-MS) has been used. Carbetocin is an important drug with recognized therapeutical application for stimulation of uterine contractions to facilitate parturition. Stepwise solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) commonly results in unwanted side products associated with incomplete peptide chains. Consequently, this procedure requires extensive purification and characterization of the final synthesis crude. The linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) method has been applied to optimize the proportion of organic modifier of the mobile phase used in the established LC method. On the other hand, ES-MS has allowed rapid and reliable identification of the target peptide and the other impurities present in the carbetocin synthesis products. 相似文献

The characterization of impurities and/or degradants present in pharmaceutical compounds is an important part of the drug development process. Although LC–UV is commonly employed for impurities and degradant compound determination, LC–MS techniques are proposed in this work to be a viable modern alternative for the characterization of these compounds. LC–UV and LC–MS were compared for the detection of impurities present in different brands of trimethoprim tablets by using an in-line LC–UV–MS system with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization source (APCI) coupled with a reversed-phase gradient HPLC system. It was shown that, although chemical noise was higher when using full-scan LC–MS compared to LC–UV, low level impurities were better detected by mass spectrometry (MS) when modern software algorithms are employed. These included the “Contour” chromatogram algorithm and/or the “component detection algorithm” (CODA). In addition, MS allowed for the simultaneous determination of the molecular masses and some structural information of the impurities and/or degradants. The results also showed a large difference in the purity of trimethoprim among different manufacturers. LC–MS and tandem MS techniques were employed to acquire fragmentation patterns for trimethoprim and its degradants to gain insight into their structures. 相似文献

Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) is a powerful tool for analysis of drugs and their metabolites. We used a column-switching system in combination with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization LC–MS (LC–APCI–MS) for the determination of theophylline and its metabolites in biological samples. The separation was carried out on a reversed-phase column using methanol–20 mM ammonium acetate as a mobile phase at a flow-rate of 1 ml/min in 30 min. In the mass spectrum, the molecular ions of these drugs and metabolites were clearly observed as base peaks. This method is sufficiently sensitive and accurate for the pharmacokinetic studies of these drugs. 相似文献

Leuprolide is a synthetic nonapeptide drug (pyroGlu-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-d-Leu-Leu-Arg-Pro-NHEt) that acts as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist. The continuous administration of therapeutic doses of leuprolide inhibits gonadotropin secretion, which is used in androgen-deprivation therapy for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer, central precocious puberty, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and other sex-hormone-related conditions. To improve the pharmacokinetic properties of peptide drugs, a fatty acid was conjugated with leuprolide for long-term action. In this study, we developed a simple ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous determination of leuprolide and leuprolide–oleic acid conjugate (LOC) levels. The developed method was validated in terms of linearity, precision, accuracy, recovery, matrix effect, and stability according to the US Food and Drug Administration guidelines, and the parameters were within acceptable limits. Subsequently, the pharmacokinetics of leuprolide and LOCs were evaluated. In vivo rat subcutaneous studies revealed that conjugation with fatty acids significantly altered the pharmacokinetics of leuprolide. After the subcutaneous administration of fatty-acid-conjugated leuprolide, the mean absorption time and half-life were prolonged. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study showing the effects of fatty acid conjugates on the pharmacokinetics of leuprolide using a newly developed UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous quantification of leuprolide and LOCs. 相似文献

It is known that while many elements are considered essential to human health, many others can be toxic. However, because the intake, accumulation, transport, storage and interaction of these different metals and metalloids in nature is strongly influenced by their specific elemental form, complete characterization of the element is essential when assessing its benefits and/or risk. Consequently, interest has grown rapidly in determining oxidation state, chemical ligand association, and complex forms of a many different elements. Elemental speciation, or the analyses that lead to determining the distribution of an element’s particular chemical species in a sample, typically involves the coupling of a separation technique and an element specific detector. A large number of methods have been developed which utilize a multitude of different separation mechanisms and detection instruments. Yet, because of its versatility, robustness, sensitivity and multi-elemental capabilities, the coupling of liquid chromatography to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LC–ICP–MS) has become one of the most popular techniques for elemental speciation studies. This review focuses on the basic principles of LC–ICP–MS, its historical development and the many ways in which this technique can be applied. Different liquid chromatography separations are discussed as well as the factors that must be considered when coupling each to ICP–MS. Recent applications of LC–ICP–MS to the speciation of environmental, biological and clinical samples are also presented. 相似文献

We report the isolation and characterization of bis- and tris-adducts of fulleropyrrolidine derivatives. First, all eight N-methyl regioisomers with two addends on the C60 sphere have been isolated; second, C60 was used as starting material for the synthesis of tris-adducts, and the products formed in detectable quantities have been isolated and characterized. Third, the same compounds were obtained by introducing the third addend on each previously isolated bis-derivative: this approach facilitated the assignment of the relative geometry through chromatographic comparison of the diverse reaction mixtures. Finally, the obtained tris-adducts have been characterized by means of ES-MS, UV-vis, 1H NMR, as well as comparison with UV spectra and elution order of Bingel and Diels-Alder tris-adducts described in the literature. 相似文献

A specific and sensitive method based on tandem mass spectrometry with on-line high-performance liquid chromatography using atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (LC–APCI-MS–MS) for the quantitation of anabolic hormone residues (17β-19-nortestosterone, 17β-testosterone and progesterone) and their major metabolites (17-19-nortestosterone and 17-testosterone) in bovine serum and urine is reported. [2H2]17β-Testosterone was used as internal standard. The analytes were extracted from urine (following enzymatic hydrolysis) and serum samples by liquid–liquid extraction and purified by C18 solid-phase extraction. Ionisation was performed in a heated nebulizer interface operating in the positive ion mode, where only the protonated molecule, [M+H]+, was generated for each analyte. This served as precursor ion for collision-induced dissociation and two diagnostic product ions for each analyte were identified for the unambiguous hormone confirmation by selected reaction monitoring LC–MS–MS. The overall inter-day precision (relative standard deviation) ranged from 6.37 to 2.10% and from 6.25 to 2.01%, for the bovine serum and urine samples, respectively, while the inter-day accuracy (relative error) ranged from −5.90 to −3.18% and from −6.40 to −2.97%, for the bovine serum and urine samples, respectively. The limit of quantitation of the method was 0.1 ng/ml for all the hormones in bovine serum and urine. On account of its high sensitivity and specificity the method has been successfully used to confirm illegal hormone administration for regulatory purposes. 相似文献

Efficient and automated purification of new chemical entities/potential drug substances and isolation of minor impurities are important aspects of early drug discovery and development strategies, especially when combinatorial synthesis is applied. LC–MS controlled preparative LC and automated fraction collection have been developed for this purpose. The success of such an approach is greatly determined by the quality of the software controlling the application, the coordination between software and hardware, and the reliability of the hardware. The performance of a commercially-available LC–MS controlled autopurification system was evaluated by fractionating four impurities of buspirone as a model compound, eluting closely to the major component under both acidic and basic mobile-phase conditions. A purification strategy for these four components is proposed. 相似文献

Identification of unknown water pollutants with liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS–MS) is often more complex and time consuming than identification with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC–MS). In order to focus the identification effort on relevant compounds, unknown peaks need to be selected carefully. Based on its frequency of occurrence in the LC–Diode Array Detection (LC–DAD) chromatograms of surface and infiltrated waters, an unknown peak was selected for identification with LC–MS–MS. This compound was identified as hexamethoxymethylmelamine (HMMM), a chemical often used in the coating industry. This is the first time the presence of this chemical in surface waters has been reported. In addition to HMMM, two other structurally related compounds were found to be present in the investigated surface water. A standard mixture of HMMM and its by-products did not exhibit (geno)toxicity under the test conditions applied in this study. In another example, a genotoxic fraction of an industrial wastewater was isolated and examined by LC–MS–MS using a modern quadrupole–orthogonal acceleration-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (Q-TOF). Four compounds were detected. The structures of two compounds present are proposed to be 9-amino-2-hydroxy-acridine and 9-hydroxy-acridine-N-oxide or its structural isomer dihydroxy-acridine. Confirmation with standards could not be carried out, as pure compounds are not available. The other two compounds (structural isomers) could not be identified based on the data available within this study. 相似文献

High-flow pneumatically assisted electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) has been extensively used for the characterization and determination of peptides and peptide hormones available for biomedical research and therapeutic applications. The aim of this study was to optimize a method of characterization and determination of a mixture of peptide hormones with therapeutic interest by liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to ESI-MS. In this work the linear solvation energy relationship methodology was used in order to optimize the mobile phase to be used in the LC separation of the peptide hormone series and the operational parameters of the source and analyzer of ESI were also optimized to obtain the best signal stability and the highest sensitivity. To validate the proposed method for peptide hormone analysis, quality parameters were determined and satisfactory results were obtained. Likewise, the method detection limit was picomole level for most of the peptides employing selected-ion monitoring of the [M+nH]n+ ions. 相似文献

Mixed-mode hydrophilic interaction/cation-exchange chromatography (HILIC/CEX) was applied to the separation of two mixtures of synthetic peptide standards: (i) a 27-peptide mixture containing three groups of peptides (each group containing nine peptides of the same net charge of +1, +2 or +3), where the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity of adjacent peptides within the groups varied only subtly (generally by only a single carbon atom); and (ii) peptide pairs with the same composition but different sequences, where the sole difference between the peptides was the position of a single amino acid substitution. HILIC/CEX is essentially CEX chromatography in the presence of high levels of organic modifier (generally ACN). The present study demonstrated the dramatic effect of increasing ACN concentration (optimum levels of 60-80%, depending on the application) on the separation of both mixtures of peptides. The greater the charge on the peptides, the better the separation achievable by HILIC/CEX. In addition, HILIC/CEX separation of both the peptide mixtures used in the present study was shown to be superior to that of the more commonly applied RP-HPLC mode. Our results highlight again the efficacy of HILIC/CEX as a peptide separation mode in its own right as well as an excellent complement to RP-HPLC. 相似文献

Packed capillary liquid chromatography–electrospray mass spectrometry (LC–ESI-MS) was used for the analysis of a snow sample that was accidentally contaminated with an organophosphorus chemical warfare agent during the destruction of a chemical munition. Sarin, its hydrolysis products and a number of related compounds were identified on the basis of acquired LC–ESI-MS data. Full mass spectra were acquired for 14 compounds, with all exhibiting MH+, [MH+ACN]+ ions and/or protonated dimers that could be used to confirm molecular mass. Sampling cone voltages from 20 to 70 V were utilized with the higher sampling voltages enhancing formation of structurally important product ions in the ESI interface. All data were acquired with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer with a resolution of 5000 (50% valley definition), a resolution that aided in the assignment of elemental composition of the observed ions. The application of LC–ESI-MS to snow analysis appears to be an attractive alternative to the GC–MS methods, since both chemical warfare agents and their hydrolysis products may be analysed directly, eliminating the need for additional sample handling and derivatization steps. 相似文献

Among the various compounds considered as emerging pollutants, alkylphenolic surfactants, steroid sex hormones, and pharmaceuticals are of particular concern, both because of the volume of these substances used and because of their activity as endocrine disruptors or as causative agents of bacterial resistance, as is the case of antibiotics. Today, the technique of choice for analysis of these groups of substances is liquid-chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS–MS). In the last decades, this technique has experienced an impressive progress that has made possible the analysis of many environmental pollutants in a faster, more convenient, and more sensitive way, and, in some cases, the analysis of compounds that could not be determined before. This article reviews the LC–MS and LC–MS–MS methods published so far for the determination of alkylphenolic surfactants, steroid sex hormones and drugs in the aquatic environment. Practical considerations with regards to the analysis of these groups of substances by using different mass spectrometers (single quadrupole, ion trap and triple quadrupole instruments, etc.), interfaces and ionization and monitoring modes, are presented. Sample preparation aspects, with special focus on the application of advanced techniques, such as immunosorbents, restricted access materials and molecular imprinted materials, for extraction/purification of aquatic environmental samples and extracts are also discussed. 相似文献

The concept of quasiracemic synthesis is introduced and illustrated with syntheses of both enantiomers of pyridovericin (whose absolute configuration is assigned as R) and mappicine. Like racemic synthesis, quasiracemic synthesis provides both enantiomers in a single synthetic sequence; however, separation tagging is used to ensure that quasiracemic mixtures can be analyzed, separated, and identified on demand. Fluorous tags of differing chain lengths are used to tag two enantiomeric starting materials. The resulting quasienantiomers are mixed to make a quasiracemate, which is then treated like a true racemate in successive steps of the synthesis. Fluorous chromatography is used to separate, or demix, the final quasiracemate into its two components, which are then detagged to provide (true) enantiomeric products. Quasiracemic synthesis is portrayed as the first and simplest of a series of mixture synthesis techniques based on separation tagging, and the prospects for using other types of separation tags are briefly evaluated. 相似文献
