Thermodynamics of the two-dimensional O(3) σ-model with fixed-point lattice action

The free energy density of the two-dimensional O(3) non-linear σ-model is calculated at finite temperature and finite spatial extent. Both an analytic calculation in the perturbative regime and a Monte Carlo study at low temperatures are presented. It is shown that using the fixed-point action instead of the standard Wilson action leads to a substantial reduction of the cut-off effects.     

Matrix‐free thin‐layer chromatography/laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry for facile separation and identification of medicinal alkaloids

Quaternary protoberberine alkaloids belong to a pharmaceutically important class of isoquinoline alkaloids associated with bactericidal, fungicidal, insecticidal and antiviral activities. As traditional medicine gains wider acceptance, quick and robust analytical methods for the screening and analysis of plants containing these compounds attract considerable interest. Thin‐layer chromatography (TLC) combined with matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI‐MS) is a powerful technique but suffers from dilution of the TLC bands resulting in decreased sensitivity and masking of signals in the low‐mass region both due to addition of matrix. This study integrates for the first time conventional silica gel TLC and laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (LDI‐MS) thus eliminating the need for any external matrix. Successful separation of berberine (R_f = 0.56) and palmatine (R_f = 0.46) from Berberis barandana including their identification by MS are demonstrated. Furthermore, a robust electrospray ionization (ESI)‐MS method utilizing residual sample from TLC for quantification of berberine applying selected reaction monitoring and standard addition method is presented. The amount of berberine in the plant root prepared for the study was determined to be 0.70% (w/w). Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
