Analysis of turkish lignite tar by coupled LC/GC,GC/MS,and capillary SFC

This work describes the analysis of a pyrolysis product of a lignite sample obtained from the Turkish Goynuk reserve. The aliphatic, aromatic and polar compounds present in the tar are separated and identified by various chromatographic techniques: Capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), on-line high performance microbore liquid chromatography/capillary gas chromatography (LC/GC) and capillary supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). The suitability of each technique for this particular application is discussed, and semi-quantitative results are presented for the major components detected.     

Strategies for compound identification and quantification using fused silica capillary column GC/MS

A test mixture containing 28 compounds plus their stable isotopically labeled analogs was analyzed on a daily basis for one month during a series of routine fused silica capillary column GC/MS analyses in order to establish the precision with which retention times and responses were produced. These long-term precision data were evaluated to determine how to best predict retention times and how to best reproduce quantification. Results clearly indicate that relative retention times should be calculated using the reference compound eluted most closely to the target compound and that quantification should be based on relative response using a chemically “similar” compound.

Toxaphene analysis in Great Lakes fish: a comparison of GC-EI/MS/MS and GC-ECNI-MS, individual congener standard and technical mixture for quantification of toxaphene

Toxaphene is considered to be a problematic organochlorine pollutant because of its bioaccumulation potential and persistence in aquatic environments. In this study, whole lake trout and walleye composites were used to evaluate two analytical techniques for total toxaphene and selected congener analysis. The efficacy of using gas chromatography electron ionization tandem mass spectrometry (GC-EI/MS/MS) and electron capture negative ionization mass spectrometry (GC-ECNI-MS) were compared. Although the sensitivity using GC-ECNI-MS was approximately five times greater than GC-EI/MS/MS, the latter provided more consistent inter-Parlar relative response factors (RRF). When using technical calibration mixtures, these results suggest a more accurate total toxaphene measurement was obtained using the GC-EI/MS/MS method. Total toxaphene concentrations in lake trout composites from both methods were highly correlated (R ² = 0.985) with the MS/MS concentrations approximately half of those determined by ECNI, suggesting systematic high bias in toxaphene concentrations when measured using GC-ECNI.     

Simple methodology coupling microwave-assisted extraction to SPE/GC/MS for the analysis of natural steroids in biological tissues: Application to the monitoring of endogenous steroids in marine mussels Mytilus sp.

A simple analytical procedure for the simultaneous determination of eight endogenous steroids (testosterone, androstenedione, 17β-estradiol, estrone, pregnenolone, progesterone, dihydroandrostenedione, and dihydrotestosterone) in aquatic molluscs by solid-phase extraction (SPE) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) has been developed. After a microwave-assisted extraction, samples were further extracted and purified using two successive SPE (EnviChrom-P and NH₂) cartridges. Steroids were derivatized with a mixture of N-methyl-N(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (MSTFA)/mercaptoethanol/ammonium iodide (NH₄I) and determined by GC-MS in selective ion monitoring mode. Recoveries were in the range 85-114%, although slightly lower for dihydrotestosterone, and the repeatability of the procedure, expressed as the coefficient of variation, was lower than 16%. The limits of detection determined in digestive glands of mussels were in the range 0.1-0.4 ng g⁻¹ wet weight for all the steroids. The developed procedure was then applied to the monitoring of steroid profiles in the digestive glands of mussels from the Arcachon Bay (France) during two reproductive cycles. In parallel, two physiological parameters (lipid content and the condition index of mussels) were also monitored, as well as the seawater temperature and salinity. Only progesterone and pregnenolone were detected in the digestive glands of mussels, and the seasonal variations of progesterone levels seemed to be related to the spawning periods of Mytilus sp. in the Bay. The current challenge for the determination of natural steroids in aquatic invertebrates is also briefly discussed.     

Fatty Acids Profiling and Biomarker Identification in Snow Alga Chlamydomonas Nivalis by NaCl Stress Using GC/MS and Multivariate Statistical Analysis

The snow alga Chlamydomonas nivalis is a model species of microalgae for the investigation of cell response mechanism and adaptation ability in natural habitats in polar regions and similar extreme environments. The alteration of fatty acids in cellular lipids is known to play a vital role for cell survival and reproduction under various stress conditions. In the present work, an integrated approach of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) coupled with multivariate statistical analysis was developed to investigate the fatty acid profiles and identify the biomarkers in response to NaCl stress. The data of fatty acid profiles between the control and NaCl-stress group was classified by orthogonal projection on latent structure discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA); six of fatty acids (C16:0, C16:3, C18:0, C18:1, C18:2, and C18:3) were identified as biomarkers. These biomarkers showed a regulatory role by decreasing the degree of lipid unsaturation (DLU), providing an expected function in reducing membrane fluidity and permeability for enhancing the tolerance to higher salinity. This is the first report to demonstrate the fatty acid biomarkers in microalgae as the physiological regulators corresponding to the response and adaptation to NaCl stress based on an integrated approach at the lipidomic level.

Rapid and ultra-sensitive GC/MS analyses with a microchannel plate array detector Part I: Possibilities of simultaneous ion detection in narrow-bore GC/MS

Identification and detection limits for scanning and non-scanning mass spectrometers are discussed. It is theoretically deduced and experimentally confirmed that these limits are on the low pico-and femtogram levels, respectively, when using conventional secondary electron multiplier-amplifier systems. The sensitivity can be increased at least tenfold by pulse-counting techniques, instead of current amplification, provided the chemical noise is sufficiently low. The potential advantages of a detection system for simultaneous ion detection in a significant mass range, for obtaining complete mass spectra in fast GC/MS analyses, are demonstrated. A double focusing mass spectrometer was constructed, using the well-proven Mattauch-Herzog principles. By application of an “electronic photoplate”, substance identification in the low femtogram range on a millisecond time scale, so far only accessible for single ion monitoring techniques, is feasible.     

Steroid-estrogen determination in sediment and sewage sludge: a critique of sample preparation and chromatographic/mass spectrometry considerations, incorporating a case study in method development

Steroid estrogens have been identified in the solid matrices of unit treatment processes in sewage treatment works (STWs) and in sediments of watercourses that receive effluent. This article discusses the sample preparation and analytical considerations necessary for reliable determination and the need to evaluate for possible matrix interferences during method development. Complementing this is a case study highlighting the potential for analyte transformation during sample preparation and the phenomena of ion suppression when utilising LC/MS ESI with a comparison of method recoveries by GC/MS. We discuss the use of LC/MS/MS and TOF instruments; however, at present, their use in environmental analyses appears to be limited because of their capital costs.     

New mechanistic insights on Justicia vahlii Roth: UPLC-Q-TOF-MS and GC–MS based metabolomics,in-vivo,in-silico toxicological,antioxidant based anti-inflammatory and enzyme inhibition evaluation

Justicia vahlii Roth. (acanthaceae) is an important medicinal food plant used in pain relief and topical inflammation. The present study aimed to evaluate phytochemical composition, toxicity, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and enzyme inhibition potential of n-butanol extract of J. vahlii (BEJv). The extract prepared through maceration was found rich in total phenolic contents (TPC) 196.08 ± 6.01 mg of Gallic acid equivalent (mg GAE/g DE) and total flavonoid contents (TFC) 59.08 ± 1.32 mg of Rutin equivalent (mg RE/g DE). The UPLC-Q-TOF-MS analysis of BEJv showed tentative identification of 87 compounds and 19 compounds were detected in GC–MS analysis. The HPLC-PDA quantification showed the presence of 14 polyphenols amongst which kaempferol (3.45 ± 0.21 µg/ mL DE) and ferulic acid (2.31 ± 1.30 µg/ mL DE) were found in highest quantity. The acute oral toxicity study revealed the safety and biocompatibility of the extract up to 3000 mg/kg in mice. There was no effect of BEJv on human normal liver cells (HL 7702) and very low cytotoxic effect on liver cancer cells (HepG2) and breast cancer cells (MCF-7). In anti-inflammatory evaluation, the BEJv treated groups showed significant inhibition (p < 0.001) of late phase carrageenan induced paw edema at 400 mg/kg and increased the levels of oxidative stress markers; catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) while decreased the inflammatory markers; interleukin-1beta (IL-β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in paw tissue of mice. BEJv displayed highest results in Ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay 97. 21 ± 2.34 mg TE (trolox equivalent)/g DE, and highest activity 3.32 ± 0.31 mmol ACAE (acarbose equivalent)/g D.E against α-glucosidase. Docking study showed good docking score by the tested compounds against the various clinically significant enzymes. Conclusively the current study unveiled J. vahlii as novel non-toxic source with good antioxidant-mediated anti-inflammatory potential which strongly back the traditional use of the species in pain and inflammation.     

New designer drug 1-(3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl) piperazine (MDBP): studies on its metabolism and toxicological detection in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

Studies are described on the metabolism and toxicological analysis of the piperazine-derived designer drug 1-(3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl)piperazine (MDBP) in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The identified metabolites indicated that MDBP was metabolized by demethylenation and subsequent methylation to N-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)piperazine followed by partial glucuronidation or sulfation. Additionally, degradation of the piperazine moiety to N-(3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl)ethylenediamine and 3,4-methylenedioxybenzylamine and N-dealkylation to piperazine were observed. The authors' systematic toxicological analysis (STA) procedure using full-scan GC/MS after acid hydrolysis, liquid/liquid extraction and microwave-assisted acetylation allowed the detection of MDBP and its above-mentioned metabolites in rat urine after single administration of a dose calculated from the doses commonly taken by drug users. Assuming similar metabolism, the described STA procedure should be suitable for proof of an intake of MDBP by analysis of human urine.     

Evaluation of mobile phase, ion pairing, and temperature influence on an HILIC-MS/MS method for L-arginine and its dimethylated derivatives detection

Asymmetric N(G),-N(G)-dimethylarginine (ADMA) increases in diseases such as renal failure, diabetes mellitus, and hypercholesterolemia. The feasibility and utility of a hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) method for the separation of free L-arginine (Arg), ADMA, and symmetric N(G),-N(G')-dimethylarginine (SDMA) on a typical silica column were explored and the impact of some experimental parameters on the chromatographic behavior of these analytes was investigated. The effect of water and TFA content in mobile phase and of column temperature was investigated during the development of a fast and simple HILIC-MS/MS method that might be suitable for the quantification of free Arg, ADMA, and SDMA in plasma for routine analysis. Our results show that a good compromise between efficiency and peak shape with acceptable retention and total chromatographic run time is achieved using an ACN/water (90:10) mobile phase with TFA% as additive ranging from 0.015 to 0.025% and column temperature ranging from 25 to 30 degrees C.     

New designer drug, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-propylthio-beta-phenethylamine (2C-T-7): studies on its metabolism and toxicological detection in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

Studies are described on the metabolism and toxicological analysis of the phenethylamine-derived designer drug 2,5-dimethoxy-4-propylthio-beta-phenethylamine (2C-T-7) in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The identified metabolites indicated that 2C-T-7 was metabolized by hydroxylation of the propyl side chain followed by N-acetylation and sulfoxidation and also by deamination followed by oxidation to the corresponding acid or by reduction to the corresponding alcohol. To a minor extent, 2C-T-7 was also metabolized by S-dealkylation followed by N-acetylation, S-methylation and sulfoxidation. The authors' systematic toxicological analysis (STA) procedure using full-scan GC/MS after acid hydrolysis, liquid-liquid extraction microwave-assisted acetylation allowed the detection of an intake of a dose of 2C-T-7 in rat urine that corresponds to a common drug users' dose. Assuming similar metabolism, the described STA procedure should be suitable for proof of an intake of 2C-T-7 in human urine.     

α-glucosidase inhibitory,antioxidant activity,and GC/MS analysis of Descurainia sophia methanolic extract: In vitro,in vivo,and in silico studies

Due to the presence of various phenolic compounds in D.sophia, this plant may have an inhibitory effect on α-Glc and ultimately diabetes control. Therefore, this work aims to scrutinize total phenolic, flavonoid contents, antioxidant capacity, and α-Glc inhibitory activity in aerial parts of methanolic D.sophia extract. The methanolic flower extracts were selected from among aerial parts for the experimental study of anti-diabetic effects by α-Glc inhibitory assays. The flower extracts were also studied by GC/MS to detect the compounds. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents were 21.38 ± 0.93 GAE/g and 96.2 ± 0.20 QE/g, respectively. The IC₅₀ value of flower extract for α-Glc inhibition with mixed (Competitive/non-competitive) mode was found to be 20.34 ± 0.11 mg/ml. Furthermore, in-vivo studies showed that the blood glucose level reduced after consumption of flower extract compared to the control group. Twenty-one compounds were identified by GC/MS technique. These compounds were assessed for high docking scores against α-Glc in silico. Docking score calculations exhibited that the DES-α-Glc complex had a significantly higher binding energy (-6.13 Kcal/mol) than other compounds. The DES-α-Glc complex which displayed a higher docking energy value than the ACR was subjected to MDs studies. The findings of this study suggest that the flower extract of D.sophia can be used as a suitable additive in syrups or foods with anti-diabetic capacity.
