On-line size-exclusion chromatography/mass spectrometry of low molecular mass heparin

Heparin and low molecular mass heparin (LMMH) consists of complex mixtures of sulphated linear oligosaccharides that are difficult to analyse.

The experimental setup includes on-line cation exchange in order to prevent massive adducting in the ESI interface.     

Alternative CHCA-based matrices for the analysis of low molecular weight compounds by UV-MALDI-tandem mass spectrometry

Analysis of low molecular weight compounds (LMWC) in complex matrices by vacuum matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) often suffers from matrix interferences, which can severely degrade limits of quantitation. It is, therefore, useful to have available a range of suitable matrices, which exhibit complementary regions of interference. Two newly synthesized α-cyanocinnamic acid derivatives are reported here; (E)-2-cyano-3-(naphthalen-2-yl)acrylic acid (NpCCA) and (2E)-3-(anthracen-9-yl)-2-cyanoprop-2enoic acid (AnCCA). Along with the commonly used α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), and the recently developed 4-chloro-α-cyanocinnamic acid (Cl-CCA) matrices, these constitute a chemically similar series of matrices covering a range of molecular weights, and with correspondingly differing ranges of spectral interference. Their performance was compared by measuring the signal-to-noise ratios (S/N) of 47 analytes, mostly pharmaceuticals, with the different matrices using the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode on a triple quadrupole instrument equipped with a vacuum MALDI source. AnCCA, NpCCA and Cl-CCA were found to offer better signal-to-noise ratios in SRM mode than CHCA, but Cl-CCA yielded the best results for 60% of the compounds tested. To better understand the relative performance of this matrix series, the proton affinities (PAs) were measured using the kinetic method. Their relative values were: AnCCA > CHCA > NpCCA > Cl-CCA. This ordering is consistent with the performance data. The synthesis of the new matrices is straightforward and they provide (1) tunability of matrix background interfering ions and (2) enhanced analyte response for certain classes of compounds.     

凝胶色谱法测定聚丙烯腈相对分子质量的验证

Qualitative analysis of enzymatic and chemical depolymerized low molecular weight heparins by UHPLC coupled with electrospray ionization quadrupole time‐of‐flight‐mass spectrometry

Complete heparin digestion with heparin lyase I and II results in a mixture of hexasaccharides and tetrasaccharides with 3‐O‐sulfo group‐containing glucosamine residues at their reducing ends. Because these tetrasaccharides are derived from antithrombin III‐binding sites of heparin, we examined whether this method could be applied to estimate the anticoagulant activity of heparin. Therefore, this paper presents a new low molecular weight heparin sample preparation method–chemical depolymerization. Qualitative analysis of the studied compounds and a comparison of their composition are an important contribution to the structural analysis of low molecular weight heparins, which has not been fully conducted so far. Qualitative on‐line liquid chromatography–mass spectrometric analysis of these resistant oligosaccharides is also described in this paper.     

Study of small benzene clusters by pulse molecular beam mass spectrometry

A simple method for separating contributions of different-sized clusters formed in a pulse supersonic boum to a mass-spectral signal has been suggested. The method is based on the analysis of time pulse profiles measured for different ions of the beam and makes it possible to calculate mass spectra of small clusters. The electron impact mass spectrum of the benzene dimer has been obtained and analyzed in We framework of the concept of intracluster ion-molecular chemistry.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

基于超高效液相色谱-高分辨质谱和渗透压校正样本浓度变异性的尿液代谢组学分析

尿液是代谢组学研究中主要关注的体液样本之一。尿液样本中的代谢物浓度受饮食、疾病等因素影响变异较大,这极大阻碍了高质量组学数据的获取和可靠生物标志物的鉴定。研究为克服尿液样本的浓度变异性,在原始数据采集前,根据样本渗透压的大小,针对性地调整进样量或者稀释样本,从而确保代谢组学分析样本的渗透压与进样量的乘积相当,再经超高效液相色谱-高分辨质谱技术(UPLC-HRMS)分析,采用总离子丰度或总有用峰面积(MSTUS)对数据集进行归一化处理。研究利用临床样本及其梯度稀释的溶液,对该方法与现有研究普遍使用的方法进行了比较,随后通过先天性肾积水患者及健康志愿者的尿液样本做了进一步的方法学验证。数据集经校正后,峰面积RSD<30%的提取峰数量增加,主成分分析结果较校正前有更高的组内聚集和组间分群效应,正交偏最小二乘判别分析的统计模型更不易过拟合。与肌酐比较,渗透压值与质谱信号间呈现了更好的线性关系。以上结果表明,数据采集前通过样本渗透压进行校正,能有效消除因样本本身代谢物浓度变化引起的组内差异,提高方法的重复性和统计模型的可靠度。以渗透压为基准的校正策略,比肌酐校正法适用范围更广,结果也更准确。研究可对后续各类来源的尿液代谢组学研究提供数据归一化的指导和参考。

Urine and serum metabolomics study of wild ginseng in rats with spleen-qi deficiency using rapid resolution liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Patients with a spleen-qi deficiency often exhibit dysfunction in the metabolic system. Metabolites are considered the most direct reflection of individual physiological and pathological conditions and represent attractive candidates to provide deep insights into disease phenotypes. This study examines the potential therapeutic mechanism of wild ginseng on spleen-qi deficiency through the analysis of serum and urine metabolomics using rapid-resolution liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The reasons for the superiority of wild ginseng treatment over cultivated ginseng were also analyzed in depth. After wild ginseng intervention, anandamide, urobilinogen, aldosterone, and testosterone glucuronide were significantly reduced in serum. Meanwhile, argininosuccinic acid, L-cysteine, and seven other metabolites were significantly elevated in serum. Nine metabolites, including L-acetylcarnitine, and citrulline were elevated in the urine, and trimethylamine N-oxide, adrenic acid, and 10 other metabolites were reduced. Arginine biosynthesis, pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, thiamin metabolism, taurine, and tryptophan metabolism pathways were mainly improved. Further analysis was conducted on the relationship between Lactobacillus and Akkermansia bacteria with metabolites, and it was found that they are mainly related to amino acid metabolites. This study provides strong theoretical support and direction for further explanation of the immune mechanism of wild ginseng and lays the foundation for future studies.
