A facile method based on liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry working in selected reaction monitoring mode has been established to analyze toxins in the algae and water samples. Twelve types of toxins (anatoxin, cylindrospermopsin, dinophysistoxin-1, nodularin, okadaic acid, microcystins) were efficiently separated under optimized liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry conditions in the selected reaction monitoring mode. Correlation coefficients of the calibration curves, all felt in the range of 0.9958-0.9998, indicated good linearity. The detection limits of toxins in this method were all lower than 0.20 ng/mL and the quantification limits were in the range from 0.04 to 0.60 ng/mL. Except for anatoxin, cylindrospermopsin, and nodularin, the other toxins' recoveries varied from 55.45 to 140.85%. And the relative standard deviations of interday and intraday precision were at 8.61% (n = 5). The high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)/electrospray ionization (ESI)-mass spectrometery (MS) method was also successfully applied to analyze the algae and water samples. Owing to its exclusive selectivity and excellent sensitivity, the developed method is a tool for comprehensive analyses of the 12 types of toxins at nanogram levels. 相似文献

As a suitable way for routine screening of pesticides and control of other organic contaminants in water, the combination of liquid chromatography triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (LC–QqQ-MS/MS) and liquid chromatography–hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC–QTOF-MS) has been applied to the analysis of 63 surface and waste water samples after conventional solid-phase extraction (SPE). The extracts were screened for 43 pesticides or degradation products by LC–QqQ-MS/MS achieving limits of detection (LOD) ranged from 0.04 to 2 ng L−1. Of the 43 selected pesticides, 33 were detected in water samples. The ESI–QTOF MS instrument was run using two simultaneous acquisition functions with low and high collision energy (MSE approach) and acquiring the full mass spectra. A home-made database containing more than 1100 organic pollutants was used for substance identification. Around 250 of these compounds were available at the laboratory as reference standards. Five pesticides and 3 of their degradation products, different to those selected in the QqQ method, were detected by QqTOF-MS. Thirteen pharmaceuticals and two drugs of abuse were also identified in the samples. In practice, the sample preparation proved to be suitable for both techniques and for a wide variety of substances with different polarity. Mutual confirmation and evidence of co-occurrence of several other organic contaminants were the main advantages of the combination of both techniques. 相似文献

The use of quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe method followed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was found to be the best combination for multiresidue determination of eight acidic herbicides in fruits and vegetables in terms of high recovery, short time of analysis, low cost and safety. Recent few articles were published for determination of different classes of acidic herbicides in single multiresidue method. In the present study, mass spectrophotometric conditions were individually optimised for eight acidic herbicides, namely 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, bentazone, bromoxynil, fluazifop, fluroxypyr, imazethapyr, ioxynil and triclopyr to achieve maximum sensitivity and selectivity in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode allowing simultaneous identification and quantification in a single run. Identity confirmation and quantitation were attained by using negative electrospray ionisation LC-MS/MS (ESI?) in MRM mode. Due to LC-MS/MS signal suppression, determination of pesticide residues was based on matrix-matched standard calculations. Most of the evaluated compounds showed a recovery ranging from 81% to 113% with relative standard deviations less than 16 % indicating acceptable precision. The precision and accuracy of the method were determined from recovery experiments on six replicates of spiked blank strawberry and green beans samples at 0.01, 0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg. The developed assay was linear over concentration range of 0.01–0.5 µg/mL, with correlation coefficient greater than 0.99 at the limit of quantitation 0.01 µg/mL. The proposed assay was successfully applied for the analysis of the studied acidic herbicides residues in two proficiency test samples. This wide scope assay protocol is applicable for monitoring acidic herbicides residues in fruits and vegetables by national regulatory authorities and accredited labs in order to help ensuring the safety of such widely used food products. 相似文献

A method for the simultaneous detection and quantification of 22 pesticides from different chemical classes was developed using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography tandem (triple quadrupole) mass spectrometry. Pesticides were extracted from 50 mg of pulverized hair with acetonitrile. The extract was submitted to two successive steps of direct immersion-SPME at 30 °C and 90 °C or to a liquid injection without SPME in order to obtain optimized conditions for each of the 22 analytes investigated. Validation parameters were significantly influenced by both the injection mode (SPME vs liquid injection) and the temperature of SPME. Limits of quantification ranged from 0.05 pg mg−1 for trifluralin to 10 pg mg−1 for pentachlorophenol. The application of the validated method to the analysis of samples collected from non-occupationally exposed volunteers demonstrated the presence of pesticides in all the samples tested. Altogether, 13 different analytes were detected at concentration above the limit of quantification. 相似文献

A sensitive and selective liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS) method for the simultaneous determination of metacavir and its two metabolites in rat plasma was developed and validated. Tinidazole was used as an internal standard and plasma samples were pretreated with one‐step liquid–liquid extraction. In addition, these analytes were separated using an isocratic mobile phase on a reverse‐phase C18 column and analyzed by MS in the selected reaction monitoring mode. The monitored precursor to product‐ion transitions for metacavir, 2′,3′‐dideoxyguanosine, O‐methylguanine and the internal standard were m/z 266.0 → 166.0, m/z 252.0 → 152.0, m/z 166.0 → 149.0 and m/z 248.0 → 202.0, respectively. The standard curves were found to be linear in the range of 1–1000 ng/mL for metacavir, 5–5000 ng/mL for 2′,3′‐dideoxyguanosine and 1–1000 ng/mL for O‐methylguanine in rat plasma. The precision and accuracy for both within‐ and between‐batch determination of all analytes ranged from 2.83 to 9.19% and from 95.86 to 111.27%, respectively. No significant matrix effect was observed. This developed method was successfully applied to an in vivo pharmacokinetic study after a single intravenous dose of 20 mg/kg metacavir in rats.

Terbuthylazine (TBA) is a widely applied herbicide and an environmental contaminant. Following its use, humans, such as agricultural workers and rural residents, may be exposed. An isotope-dilution liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray-tandem mass spectrometry method for the determination of TBA, and its metabolite desethylterbuthylazine (DET) in human urine and hair was developed and validated. Under the optimised conditions, analytes were extracted from urine using a solid phase cartridge or from hair by sonication in methanol. Analytes were separated using a C18 reversed-phase chromatographic column and quantified, after positive ionization using a heated electrospray source, by a triple quadrupole mass detector in the selected reaction monitoring mode. Validation showed linear dynamic ranges up to 100 μg/L or 5.00 ng/mg hair, inter- and intra-run precisions <7%, and accuracies within 12% of spiked concentrations. Limits of quantification were 0.25 μg/L in urine and 0.01 ng/mg hair for both TBA and DET. Matrix effect evaluation showed that the isotope dilution approach allowed for the control of bias sources. TBA and DET were determined in specimens of agriculture workers exposed to TBA using the validated method. Hair samples contained TBA levels in the low nanogram per milligram range, and urine samples contained DET levels in the low microgram per liter range. Conversely, TBA levels in urine samples and DET levels in hair samples were always below the limit of quantification. 相似文献

Ethylenebisdithiocarbamates (EBDCs) are widely used fungicides. Ethylenethiourea (ETU), the main metabolite and also a contaminant in the commercially available products, is of major toxicological concern. In this study, a method using liquid chromatography/triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) is described for the analysis of ETU in human urine after a single-step extractive derivatization using pentafluorobenzyl bromide (PFBBr). Analysis was carried out using selected reaction monitoring (SRM) in the positive ion mode. Quantification of ETU was performed using [(2)H(4)]-labeled ETU as internal standard (IS). The limit of detection (LOD) was determined to 0.05 ng/mL. The method was linear in the range 0.1-54 ng/mL urine and had a within-run precision of 3-5%. The between-run precision was determined at an average urine level of 2 and 10 ng/mL urine and found to be 9%. The inter-batch precision was 6%. To validate ETU as a biomarker of exposure, the method was applied in a human experimental oral exposure to the commercial fungicide Ridomil Gold, containing 64% mancozeb and 4.5% ETU. Two healthy volunteers received 8.9 microg/kg body weight (b.w.) Ridomil Gold in a single oral dose followed by urine sampling for 104 h post-exposure. The elimination half-life of ETU was estimated to 17-23 h. 相似文献

A new method providing enhanced sensitivity for the analysis of oligonucleotides using an on-line coupled system of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and electrospray ionization ion-trap mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) has been developed. The presented method allows the use of the standard gradient elution of 0.1 M triethylammonium acetate (TEAA) buffer (adjusted to pH 7.0 with acetic acid) and acetonitrile that is typically used for the separation of oligonucleotides in RP-HPLC. An added feature of this method is the ability to combine and mix additional 0.1 M imidazole in acetonitrile after the separation column for improved ESI-MS performance. This is similar to the post-column reaction method in liquid chromatography (LC) and the liquid sheath flow method in LC/ESI-MS, both of which offer the advantage of not compromising the chromatographic separation conditions. The application of this new method is demonstrated to afford improved sensitivity for the analysis of oligonucleotides (20-50 mer) via on-line coupled HPLC/ESI-MS analysis and purification systems. 相似文献

Triple quadrupole mass spectrometers, when operated in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode, offer a unique combination of sensitivity, specificity, and dynamic range. Consequently, the triple quadrupole is the workhorse for high-throughput quantitation within the pharmaceutical industry. However, in the past, the unit mass resolution of quadrupole instruments has been a limitation when interference from matrix or metabolites cannot be eliminated. With recent advances in instrument design, triple quadrupole instruments now afford mass resolution of less than 0.1 Dalton (Da) full width at half maximum (FWHM). This paper describes the evaluation of an enhanced resolution triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for high-throughput bioanalysis with emphasis on comparison of selectivity, sensitivity, dynamic range, precision, accuracy, and stability under both unit mass (1 Da FWHM) and enhanced (相似文献

Microdialysis (MD) is an in vivo sampling technique used to investigate biochemical events in the extracellular fluid of animal and human tissues. MD produces protein- and cell-free, aqueous samples which can be analyzed without further sample clean-up. Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is a sensitive and selective analysis technique which is suitable to quantify low concentrated target analytes in microdialysates. This paper reviews the LC-MS/MS methods which are described for the quantification of endogenous molecules, such as neurotransmitters and peptides, and of exogenous molecules, such as drugs, in microdialysates. Since miniaturization of the LC-MS/MS methods is the key to obtain maximal sensitivity of the analytical technique, this feature is discussed in the paper. In addition, critical issues related to the quantification of low concentrated molecules in microdialysates are described such as the presence of matrix effects, the low MD efficiency and the sticking of, for instance, neuropeptides. 相似文献

Phenoxyacetic acids are widely used herbicides. The toxicity of phenoxyacetic acids is debated, but high-level exposure has been shown to be hepatotoxic as well as nephrotoxic in animal studies. An inter-species difference in toxic effects has been found, with dogs particularly susceptible. In this study a method using liquid chromatography/triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) is described for the analysis of 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), and its metabolite 4-chloro-2-hydroxymethylphenoxyacetic acid (HMCPA), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) in human urine. The urine samples were treated by acid hydrolysis to degrade possible conjugations. The sample preparation was performed using solid-phase extraction. Analysis was carried out using selected reaction monitoring (SRM) in the negative ion mode. Quantification of the phenoxyacetic acids was performed using [(2)H(3)]-labeled MCPA and 2,4-D as internal standards. The method was linear in the range 0.05-310 ng/mL urine and has a within-run precision of 2-5%. The between-run precision in lower concentration ranges was between 6-15% and between 2-8% in higher concentration ranges. The limit of detection was determined to 0.05 ng/mL. The metabolites in urine were found to be stable during storage at -20 degrees C. To validate the phenoxyacetic acids as biomarkers of exposure, the method was applied in a human experimental oral exposure to MCPA, 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T. Two healthy volunteers received 200 microg of each phenoxyacetic acid in a single oral dose followed by urine sampling for 72 h post-exposure. After exposure, between 90 and 101% of the dose was recovered in the urine. In the female subject, 23%, and in the male subject 17%, of MCPA was excreted as HMCPA. 相似文献

Nanoflow liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (nano-LC/MS) has attracted increasing interest in virtue of high sensitivity, low sample consumption, and minimal matrix effect. In this work a HPLC-Chip/quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) MS device with a new ultra-high capacity small molecule chip (UHC-Chip) which features a 500 nL enrichment column and a 150 mm × 75 μm analytical column, was evaluated with a drug mixture covering a wide range of polarities. Excellent chromatographic precision with 0.1-0.5% RSD for retention time and 1.7-9.0% RSD for peak area, low limit of detection, good chip-to-chip reproducibility and linearity were obtained by using this UHC-Chip. Compared with the standard HPLC-Chip with 40 nL trapping column, the UHC-Chip showed higher enrichment capability and hence gave a higher response in signal detection. Additionally, 4-30 times increase in sensitivity was obtained compared with conventional LC/MS, which indicated that UHC-Chip/MS was a valuable tool for the quantitative analysis of low level impurities and degradation products in pharmaceuticals. Moreover, satisfactory results obtained from trace drug analysis of serum samples further proved its practicality and potential for use in drug testing and development. 相似文献
