    Notes: An automated column-switching HPLC system is described for the simultaneous determination of midodrine, an alpha-adrenergic stimulating drug, and its active metabolite, ST-1059. Serum or plasma (850 μ L) is directly injected onto a RP 18 (30 μm particle size) pre-column (9 × 4 mm ID) which acts as an on-line liquid-solid extractor and analyte enrichment system. The injection is followed by washing steps. The fraction containing the analytes is transferred onto an analytical RP18 column via step gradient elution where the final analysis is performed. Fluorescence detection is used (λex 290 nm and λem 322 nm), and method detection limits of 0.8 ng/mL plasma were reached. These were sufficiently low to determine the plasma concentration-time profiles for both compounds following oral administration of 2.5 mg and 5 mg midodrine hydrochloride. The assay in serum or plasma was linear in the range of 1 to 15 ng analyte/mL, the recovery was 〉95%, and the reproducibility was sufficient. The assay was rugged and was maintained by routinely changing the home-made, dry packed pre-column every 20th serum injection.

    Notes: A method has been developed for the separation and measurement of fluvoxamine in human plasma by high performance liquid chromatography. The method uses metapramine as an internal standard and provides a limit of detection of about 1.5 ng/mL for fluvoxamine. At a concentration of 25 ng/mL, fluvoxamine could be measured within a coefficient of variation of ±5.82 of the mean and at 100 ng/mL within a CV of ±2.78 of the mean. The method has been applied to the analysis of plasma from patients undergoing fluvoxamine therapy.

    Notes: Conditions for unblocking reversible chemical modifications such as maleylation or citraconylation ‘in situ’ at the N-terminus of proteins after transfer of proteins to immobilon membranes from SDS-PAGE are described. Demaleylation or decitraconylation occurred at 55°C in 70% formic acid (pH 1.50) during 60 min. During the unblocking reaction, Coomassie blue dye was completely removed, resulting in superior high performance liquid chromatographic separation of phenylthiohydantoin-amino acid (PTH-AA) after Edman degradation (automatic gas phase sequencer). The protein fixed on the matrix after demaleylation and removal of Coomassie blue was not degraded. The possible cleavage at the aspartyl-prolyl peptide bonds was considered, but no side reaction was observed. Furthermore, the incubation time in 70% formic acid at 55°C could be reduced to 10 min in the absence of maleylation of the starting material, and this was suitable for the removal of Coomassie blue and the quantification of phenylthiolhydantoin-amino acids (PTH-AAs) by HPLC. The yield from the starting protein through SDS-PAGE, blotting, and Edman degradation to quantitative analysis of PTH-aminoacid(s) by HLPC was established.

    Notes: An HPLC method with direct sample injections and column switching was investigated for the analysis of drugs in tissue homogenates. The appropriate precolumn packings and analytical column packings were surveyed in order to obtain quantitative recovery. The use of a large bore end-fitting filter for the precolumn avoided the interference due to minute tissue particles. A minicolumn was used to trap the analyte or clean up the sample. The method was applicable to hydrophilic as well as hydrophobic drugs in liver, kidney or heart tissues, and has been extensively used in the determination of drugs in centrifugal cell fractions such as the nucleus, mitochondria and microsome.

    Notes: A quantitative method for the determination of estriol (E3) and creatinine (C) in random urine by high performance liquid chromatography is described. The mobile phase was a mixed solution of methanol and phosphate buffer (0.025 M, pH 6.5) and the detection wavelength was at 205 nm. The method was simple, rapid and accurate. The OCV for E3 and C using this method were 1.7 - 3.4% and 2.2 - 2.5%, respectively. The RCV for E3 and C were 6.2 - 7.0% and 4.5 - 6.9%, respectively. The recoveries were 87 - 104% for E3 and 98 - 103% for C, respectively. The method has been used for clinical determinations.

    Notes: Different strategies for HPLC separation, including molecular sieving, ion-exchange, and hydrophobic interaction as well as reversed phase chromatography, were used to study molecular components in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The separations were followed by photodiode-array UV detection, which is a recently developed technique allowing a direct and rapid discrimination between peptides and proteins differing in their content of aromatic amino acids. By the various HPLC techniques in conjunction with diode-array detection it was possible to identify and characterize several protein and peptide components present in CSF. The procedure also allowed quantitative analysis of CSF proteins using minute amounts of the fluid.

    Notes: A newly developed method for the simultaneous extraction and quantitation of the unconjugated levels of the catecholamine metabolites vanilmandelic acid (VMA), 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethylene glycol (MHPG) and homovanillic acid (HVA) in plasma by high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection was modified and applied to studies of human saliva. The assay had a mean coefficient of variation under 3% for each of the metabolites. Levels of plasma VMA, MHPG and HVA were measured in 28 normal subjects and compared to their saliva levels, obtained before and after stimulation by mastication. Significant correlations were found between plasma and saliva MHPG and HVA, but there was no correlation between plasma and saliva VMA. Salivary MHPG and HVA can be reproducibly assayed and may be useful tools for indications of changes in central and peripheral catecholamine metabolism.

    Notes: A study has been made of vibration butt welds between plaques of polypropylene. The quality of the welds, as determined by impact tests, has been examined as a function of the welding variables: pressure and vibration amplitude. In addition, the microstructure of the welds has also been examined, classified, and correlated with the welding variables and weld quality. Penetration as a function of time shows three distinct regimes and It is shown that the impact strength of the welds is independent of time once the third regime is reached. The time required to reach the third regime decreases as pressure or amplitude increases and is more sensitive to amplitude of vibration than to pressure. The highest quality welds were produced at low pressure and low amplitude with corresponding long times to reach regime three and exhibited a unique, readily identifiable microstructure.

    Notes: The ultrasonic welding process is modeled using a five part model that includes mechanics and vibration of the parts, viscoelastic heating, heat transfer, flow and wetting, and intermolecular diffusion. The model predicts that melting and flow occur in steps, which has been confirmed by experiments. The model also indicates the possibility of monitoring joint quality by measuring the dynamic mechanical impedance of the parts during welding, which has also been verified experimentally by indirectly monitoring the magnitude of the impedance. via measurements of both the power and the acceleration of the base. When the melt fronts of the energy directors meet, at the end of welding, the dynamic impedance of the composites' interface is shown to rise rapidly. This raises the possibility of developing closed loop control procedures for the ultrasonic welding of thermoplastic composites. Ultrasonic welding of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) graphite APC-2 composites produced joints with excellent strengths.

    Notes: Fluorescence spectroscopy has been employed to monitor the mixing of polymer melts with filler material. The polymer melts were low molecular weight polybutadiene and PBAN, a terpolymer consisting of 85% butadiene, 11% acrylonitrile, 4% acrylic acid, and the filler material was aluminum oxide. To carry out the fluorescence observations, a dopant chromophore was mixed into the polymer melt at very low concentrations, 10-4 to 10-6 molar or 11 to 0.11 ppm by weight. The mixing experiments were carried out using a small laboratory mixer which had glass walls for viewing the fluorescence spectra from the dopant chromophore. Fluctuations in fluorescence intensity were observed to decrease as a function of mixing time indicating that the spatial distribution of the fluorescent chromophores was becoming more uniform. Concerning the mixing of polymer melt and filler, we hypothesize that uniform mixing of ingredients is achieved when fluorescence intensity as a function of time is constant. In order to obtain quantitative support for this hypothesis, we used a fluorescence microscope to measure fluorescence intensity and optical transmittance from microscopic regions of well-mixed and poorly mixed specimens.

    Notes: A sensitive liquid chromatography method has been developed using electrochemistry for the determination of leukotrienes in biological fluids. Biological specimens are treated with 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride in acetonitrile which undergoes rapid reaction with hydroxyl groups of non-peptidic leukotrienes in the presence of pyridine and with amino groups of peptidic leukotrienes in the presence of potassium tetraborate buffer. The resulting dinitroben-zoate derivatives of leukotrienes are highly electroactive, suitable for reduction or oxidation at moderate potentials by an electrochemical detector. In reductive mode at -0.7 V or oxidative mode at + 1.15 V potentials, the lower limits of detection for leukotriene derivatives were approximately 8±3 pg and 70 ± 16 pg respectively, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 5 to 1. This method was applied to the detection of leukotrienes in plasma, nasal and bronchial fluids of patients with asthma.

    Notes: A gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric (GC/MS) method for analysis of Δ1-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ1-THC) in human fat samples is described. The fat sample, obtained from heavy marihuana users 1 week before and 4 weeks after smoking, is homogenized in hexane + 2-propanol, centrifuged, and the supernatant mixed with Lipidex 5000. The solvent is evaporated and the dried gel is packed in a glass column. Δ1 -THC is eluted from the column with methanol + water + acetic acid, diluted with water and the eluent is passed through a bed of Octadecylsilanebonded silica. After washing and drying, the retained Δ1-THC is eluted with hexane, derivatized with N-methyl-N-(t-butyl-dimethysilyl)trifluoroacetamide (MTBSTFA) and finally purified by HPLC on an Octadecyl SI 100 column in methanol. The amount of Δ1-THC is determined by GC/MS, using selected ion monitoring, and a deuterated internal standard. The recovery of Δ1-THC is about 80%, and the concentration of Δ1-THC in the fat samples analysed ranged between 0.4 and 193 ng/g wet tissue.

    Notes: The peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence detection of biological thiols combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is described. SH groups of the thiol compounds including glutathione (GSH), cysteine, N-acetylcysteine, cysteamine, and D-penicillamine were labelled with N-[4-(6-dimethylamino-2-benzofuranyl)phenyl]maleimide (DBPM), a specific fluorogenic reagent for SH group. The labelling reaction was carried out at 60°C for 30 min and at pH 8.5 and a sample of the resulting reaction mixture was subjected to HPLC. Five kinds of labelled thiols were separated within 12 min on ODS-80 column (150 × 4.6mm ID; 5 μm) and detected in the ranges from 500 fmol to 2 pmol/100 μL (cysteamine and N-acetylcysteine), to 3 pmol/100 μL (cysteine) and to 5 pmol/100 μL (GSH and D-penicillamine). The lower detection limits were from 7 fmol (cysteamine) to 113 fmol (GSH) per 100 μL (S/N = 2). The method was applied to the determination of thiols in a rat liver. The amounts of glutathione and cysteine were 1.23±0.15 μmol/g (n = 5) and 0.15±0.04 μmol/g (n = 5), respectively.

    Notes: A rapid assay employing HPLC with electrochemical detection for catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) activity in red blood cells is described. Enzyme activity is determined from erythrocyte lysates using S-adenosyl-L-methionine as methyl donor and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid as substrate. The 3-O- and 4-O-methylated reaction products are measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. Human erythrocyte soluble form of COMT had Km values of 6.1 μM and 26.0 μM for S-adenosyl-L-methionine and dihydroxybenzoic acid, respectively. The mean O-methylation ratio for the soluble form of COMT was 5.3. An O-methylation ratio of 15.5 was estimated in the membrane fraction of an erythrocyte pool from three samples. The activities of soluble COMT in erythrocytes of some animal species are also reported. The procedure is easily automated, and a large number of samples can be processed during one working day.

    Notes: A reversed-phase HPLC system with 88% methanol in 1 M ammonium acetate buffer pH 5.35 as the mobile phase on an ODS column was used to analyse pheophorbides a, a', b, b' and pyropheophorbides a and b. Pyropheophorbides a and b were found in samples obtained from silkworm excrement but not from spinach leaves though the preparation methods used were the same. This difference suggests that chlorophylls undergo metabolism in the body of silkworm to give pyrochlorophyll derivatives.

    Notes: Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), the enzyme controlling the rate of adipose tissue lipolysis and also possibly involved in the regulation of steroidogenesis, has been purified from bovine omental adipose tissue. Partially detergent-solubilized, delipidated and purified HSL was obtained through step-elution at conventional DEAE ion-exchange chromatography, followed by concentration on hydroxylapatite. High performance hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HPHIC) on phenylsilica then resulted in an increase of HSL protein purity from 2% to more than 70%. Final purification of the enzyme to apparent homogeneity (〉95% protein purity), concentration and removal of most of the detergent was obtained by high performance cation exchange chromatography on Mono S. At least 0.5 mg of highly stable HSL was obtained from 5 kg of bovine omental fat within four working days. The purified lipase had a lower specific activity than previously reported for the corresponding rat enzyme but the preparations have proved very useful for enzyme structure studies and as an antigen.

    Notes: Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labelled asialotransferrin and pyridyl aminated oligosaccharides were prepared from asialotransferrin and human milk using affinity chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively. These substances were incubated with galactosidase or sialyltransferase and then examined by lectin affinity HPLC. The elution patterns changed according to the period of incubation and amount of enzyme. This analytical method using lectin affinity HPLC with fluorescence labelled glycoprotein or oligosaccharides as the substrates has great value for detecting these enzyme under the same chromatographic conditions. In addition, differences were noted in the activity of β-galactosidase toward oligosaccharides having the Gal β(1 → 3)GlcNAc or Gal β(1 → 4)GlcNAc structure at reducing termini.

    Notes: The isolation and properties of lactoferrin from human breast milk and from neutrophilic granulocytes were investigated. Human breast milk lactoferrin was purified by means of heparin-sepharose or Cibacron Blue affinity chromatography. Quantitative recovery using these two methods was comparable but Cibacron Blue affinity chromatography allowed for isolation of a more homogenous protein. Lactoferrin could only be isolated from human neutrophilic granulocytes by sequential use of antibody affinity followed by non-specific affinity chromatography. Both breast milk lactoferrin and granulocyte lactoferrin were separated into apo and iron-rich species by SDS polyacrylamide gel chromatography. Iron binding is accompanied by a conformational change in tertiary structure associated with more rapid electrophoretic migration. The isoelectric point of both human breast milk lactoferrin and human granulocyte lactoferrin is 5.5 - 6.2. Both types of lactoferrin have similar iron binding properties with release of iron from the one binding site occurring at pH 5.2 - 6.0 while the other binding site holds on to iron down to pH 3.6 - 3.2. Despite the high affinity for iron the percentage saturation of native lactoferrin is low, that for breast milk lactoferrin averaging 12 - 25% and that for granulocyte lactoferrin 〈 10%.

    Notes: Human trypsin inhibitor (home prepared), lactalbumin, trypsinogen, carbonic anhydrase, and bovine serum albumin were submitted to succinylation and their molecular masses were determined by SDS-PAGE according to the method of Weber and Osborn (1969 J. Biol. Chem. 244, 4406) before and after chemical modification. High estimates of their molecular masses were obtained. The monomer and dimer of arrowhead inhibitor proteinase-B (Chinese vegetable legume) obtained after chemical crosslink(s) were also submitted to SDS-PAGE and their apparent molecular masses were also determined and compared to the native arrowhead inhibitor proteinase-B. Abnormally high estimates of their molecular masses were obtained. Our results agree with those in the literature.

    Notes: A HPLC method for the quantitative determination of 5-hydroxy-3-indoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) in urine is described. The method is based on ion-pair chromatography, reversed phase (RP) column material and specific fluorimetric detection at 300 nm and 355 nm. Sample preparation and gradient elution were avoided by using a column-switching technique. The sensitivity of the assay was excellent for clinical routine analysis, with a detection limit of 0.2 mg/L 5-HIAA. No endogenous or exogenous interference problems arose. Intra- and interassay precision was good, with observed coefficients of variation of 1.5 to 2.6% and 2.1%, respectively. Recoveries were 93 to 98%. The system described can be used for clinical diagnosis and therapy follow-up of carcinoid tumors. It has been running for over a year without disturbances and with a minimum of technical attendance.

    Notes: The soluble form of catechol-O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.6.) from rat liver was purified to homogeneity by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography and high-performance gel-filtration chromatography. The specific activity of the final pool was 270 U/mg protein. The purification was 1180-fold and recovery of the enzyme activity was 15%. During this rapid and gentle purification there were no problems with loss of activity, and the estimated half life of the final purified enzyme pool was 5.5 days at +4°C. The only additive used was phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride in the homogenizing buffer.

    Notes: Analytical conditions of prepurification extraction and HPLC separation were optimized for determination of urinary serotonin and tryptamine. Under optimal conditions, serotonin, tryptamine and an internal standard were extracted with 15% v/v n-propanol in diethyl ether from urine samples alkalized with a phosphate buffer (0.75 mol/L, pH 10.0), and then they were re-extracted into an HCI solution (0.1 mol/L). Purified indoleamines were simultaneously separated by reversed-phase ion-pair HPLC with native fluorescence detection. Urinary serotonin and tryptamine were selectively determined within about 45 min per sample for the whole procedure. Analytical recovery, reproducibility and detection sensitivity were satisfactory for pursuing time-dependent changes in indoleamine levels. Urinary excretion profiles of serotonin and tryptamine in subjects dosed with L-tryptophan were successfully analyzed by our method.

    Notes: A practical procedure for isolating and purifying glycopeptides is described, viz. enzymatic hydrolysis - gel permeation chromatography - ion exchange chromatography - reversed phase HPLC. Using this procedure 28 glycopeptides from hen ovalbumin have been isolated some of which hitherto have not been identified. Water was a suitable mobile phase for preparing pure glycopeptides, and control of column temperature was important for good separations and reproducible retention times. Structural confirmation was by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry.

    Notes: A simple, accurate and precise procedure for the quantitation of itazigrel (a potent lipophilic inhibitor of collagen and arachidonic acid-induced aggregation being studied for its effects on peripheral vascular disease) from granulated rodent diet is presented. The drug was extracted from rodent diet using methanol + water (80:20) following dissolution of the diet in water. Samples of the supernatant were injected into the HPLC and the eluent was monitored with a fluorescent detector (λex = 320 and λem = 430) to achieve analytical specificity. Interday coefficients of variation of the calibration curve slope were ±6% on standards between 0 and 1000 μg/g. Potency and homogeneity of the drug spiked diet prepared over a 1 year interval at 70,200 and 600 μg/g was 99.3 ± 2.5%, 100 ± 1.8%, and 101 ± 1.9% of label, respectively. Samples prepared for chromatography were stable for 24 h at 20°C, and drug in diet was stable for 102 days when protected from light and stored at 20°C.

    Notes: The release and content of the excitatory amino acid neurotransmitters glutamate and aspartate in rat striatum were determined by liquid chromatography/electrochemistry. This determination was based on precolumn off-line derivatization of the amino acids with o-phthaldialdehyde and 2-mercaptoethanol (OPT/2-MCE), and the adducts formed were separated under isocratic conditions and oxidized on a glassy carbon electrode at moderate potential (+0.6 V). The standard and the extracted glutamate when derivatized with OPT/2-MCE produced similar electrochemical and chromatographic characteristics. The detection limit of glutamate was 0.5 pmol. Depolarization induced by the high potassium medium (40 mmol/L) enhanced the release of glutamate and aspartate from superfused rat striatum, whereas the efflux of glutamine remained unchanged. Perfusion (for 60 - 70 min) removed 50 - 80% of the free amino acid content of striatal tissue. The method described here is useful in neurochemical investigations of the brain amino acid neurotransmitters.

    Notes: A method for the determination of cyanide in human urine has been developed. The method is based on the reaction of cyanide with 2,3-naphthalenedialdehyde and taurine to give a fluorescent product for reversed-phase HPLC separation and fluorometric detection. After centrifugation followed by dilution of urine samples, the specimens could be analysed directly by this method. The recovery of cyanide added to urine at concentration levels of 50 - 1000 pmol/mL was 85 - 96%. The detection limit of cyanide was 30 pmol/mL in urine. The method was successfully applied to the analysis of urine from smokers and nonsmokers. The mean concentrations of cyanide were found to be 215 pmol/mL for the former and 84 pmol/mL for the latter.

    Notes: A simple, selective and very sensitive assay is described for the quantification of physostigmine in blood, plasma and urine. The most appropriate solid phase column was selected after a systematic investigation of nine types of phase. The conditions for solid phase extraction were optimized using [3H]physostigmine so that the overall recoveries were 〉90%. Physostigmine was retained on alkaline treated cyanopropyl columns and eluted into the minimum volume of methanol, obviating the need for an evaporation step. Extracted samples were quantified by HPLC with a three electrode coulometric detection system. The limit of detection was 50 pg/mL for a 0.5 mL plasma sample. The precision (CV) for 0.5 mL plasma samples containing 50 pg was 8.1%. Application of the method to plasma, blood and urine samples is presented.

    Notes: Meibomian secretions from the hamster were hydrolysed with base and examined as TMS, [2H9]TMS, methyl ester/TMS, picolinyl ester/TMS and nicotinate/TMS derivatives by capillary GC/MS. Over 90 compounds, representing over 89% of the hydrolysed fraction, were identified. Fatty acids with chain lengths from 10 to 32 carbon atoms were found, the most common of these were in the C15 to C18 and in the C25 to C30 regions. Chain types were predominantly iso or anteiso branched, mono-unsaturated (C16 and C18) and straight. Fatty alcohols were mainly from the iso or anteiso series and tended to have longer chain lengths; the major alcohols had anteiso-25 and 27 and iso-26-chains. In these respects the secretions were similar to those reported earlier from other species, although fewer mono-unsaturated compounds with longer chains (C20 to C30 region) were found than in the rat and human. The steroid fraction was characterized by a larger number of compounds than normally present in secretions of this type. The major compound was cholesterol, in common with that in all other examined species except the rabbit.

    Notes: A simple and precise method was developed for the separation of nucleosides including modified nucleosides and oligonucleotides. Nineteen kinds of nucleosides were completely separated by HPLC using an ODS column (TSK-gel ODS 80TM) and aqueous mobile phases. The RNA molecule was digested by base restrictive RNase (RNase A, RNase T1) and the digests were separated chromatographically into each oligonucleotide. The nucleoside composition of an oligonucleotide was then determined by this analytical system. It is thus possible to fit the oligonucleotide in the original RNA molecule by using modified bases as markers. The reaction site of quinacrine mustard for tRNAPhe (from yeast) could be determined by this analytical system.

    Notes: A high performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous determination of furosemide and bumetanide in horse plasma. The C8 (3 μm) reversed phase column (4.8 × 150 mm) provided clear separation of furosemide and bumetanide with other components present in the horse plasma. The detection limit for both the drugs was 10 ng/mL. Both drugs were stable in plasma (at natural or acidic pH) for up to 24 h. The method is sufficiently sensitive to detect furosemide levels in plasma obtained from horses receiving a therapeutic dose of furosemide.

    Notes: A membrane-discriminated gas phase analyzer is proposed for multicomponent determinations. Nitrogen gas flows countercurrent through outer and inner channels in a tube-in-tube arrangement. The only communication between the two channels occurs through a 500 μm aperture covered by a porous PTFE membrane. A mixture of organic compounds (up to four components) is injected into the inner channel by a heated backflushed injector and the sample components diffusing into the outer channel are monitored by a flame ionization detector (FID). A calibration set, consisting of pure components, binary, ternary and quaternary mixtures (a total of 64 samples), provides the known data base: temporal profiles of the FID output as a function of sample composition. Although the overall response behavior is not a linearly additive function of individual analyte concentrations, the use of successive inverse multiple linear regression (while continually altering the choice of the calibration samples considered for the forward regression, on the basis of the most recent values of the predicted unknown sample composition) is shown to yield analytical results for unknown samples that are in good agreement with their true values.

    Notes: Plasma levels and urinary excretion of mevalonate were reported to be correlated with cholesterol biosynthesis. Evaluation of mevalonate concentration in plasma and urine represents therefore a non-invasive method for studying the modifications of cholesterol synthesis. A method is described here by wich mevalonate in plasma and urine is determined by the selected ion monitoring technique after extraction as mevalonolactone and conversion into the trimethylsilyl ether. Linear responses were obtained in the evaluation of mevalonate added to plasma in the 10-100 ng/ml (r 〉 0.995) and to urine in the 50-1000 ng/ml concentration ranges, respectively. Identity of mevalonate in plasma and urine was confirmed by high-resolution mass spectrometry.

    Notes: Fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry was used to characterize the pyochelin complexes of iron and zinc. Ferripyochelin readily forms the [M + H]+ and [2M + H]+ ions in a glycerol matrix. The molecular ion was 2.5 fold more abundant when acetic acid was present. Iron was shown to be present in the iron-pyochelin complex as the ferric ion by wet chemical methods. Differentiation between ferric and ferrous ions by FAB was not successful owing to the FAB reducing environment. Ferric ions were reduced by FAB to ferrous ions in the following model salts - ferric chloride, ferric nitrate and ferric sulfate - when dissolved in either glycerol, thioglycerol or the magic bullet matrix. Ferric and ferrous chloride salts gave virtually identical spectra with a glycerol/acetic acid matrix. Zinc-pyochelin readily forms the [M + H]+ and [2M + H]+ ions, but only when acetic acid was present in the glycerol matrix. The FAB mass spectrum of zinc-pyochelin exhibited various fragmentations which can be used in structural analysis. Linked-scan at constant B/E and accurate mass data were used to characterize the fragmentations of the zinc-pyochelin complex. Metastable analysis allowed the fragmentation pathway of zinc-pyochelin to be determined.

    Notes: The electron impact (EI) mass spectra of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT) and certain of its alteration products are described in detail. Accurate mass measurements confirm the elemental compositions of important fragment ions in the EI spectra. Collisionally activated mass spectra are also used to study fragmentation and suggest common ion structures. The reference spectra provide the basis for identifying various alteration products of BHT by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) without the necessity of isolating individual components. Application of GC/MS is made to three studies: (i) pyrolysis of hydroperoxy-BHT as a potential pathway to alteration products in food; (ii) GC/MS pyrolysis of hydroperoxy-BHT as a model study; and (iii) alteration of BHT in ethanol/water as a food-simulating solvent.

    Notes: The MI and CA spectra of selected positive and negative ions generated by fast atom bombardment (FAB) of the stereoisomeric aldohexoses can be used to differentiate among these isomers, without prior derivatization or addition of other substances. The main fragmentation routes were traced and compared to those of some 2- and 6-deoxyaldohexoses, which appeared to be suitable model compounds. In both positive and negative ion FAB mass spectrometry, the OH group at the C-2 position plays an important role in the fragmentation reactions of the pseudomolecular [M + glycerol + H]+ and [M - H]- ions.

    Notes: Chicken intestinal calbindin-D28k is an intracellular protein which is believed to have a fundamental role in vitamin D-mediated transport of calcium. A mapping approach based on 252Cf plasma desorption mass spectrometry (PD mapping) was used to screen the DNA-deduced sequence of calbindin-D28k for sequence changes and posttranslational modifications. In the PD mapping experiment, purified calbindin-D28k was cleaved with cyanogen bromide and the resulting peptides were subjected to PD mass spectrometric analysis either as a mixture or as high-performance liquid chromatography isolated fractions. The DNA-derived primary structure of calbindin-D28k was confirmed by rapid PD mass spectral identification of the CNBr peptide fragments, and the nature of the N-terminal blocking group was readily determined to be an acetyl group. The relatively non-destructive nature of the PD mass spectrometric analysis allowed the mapping of the N-terminal peptide through an additional in situ V8 protease enzymatic reaction.

    Notes: A current limitation in the use of fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometric mapping of peptide mixtures, derived from enzymic digestion of proteins, is that most of the hydrophilic peptides are not observed. However, it has been demonstrated from previous work that esterification of the peptide mixture results in the detection of almost all peptides in FAB mass spectrometry. This strategy of FAB mapping was applied to the protein actinidin, isolated from an Italian variety of Actinidia chinensis. Two of the 12 tryptic peptides in FAB mass spectrometry did not exhibit molecular ions predicted from the known sequence of actinidin isolated from the New Zealand variety of A. chinensis. The two peptides were isolated by high-performance liquid chromatography, subjected to Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease digestion and sequenced by gas-phase microsequencing. Nine changes in amino acid composition were detected using the rapid and powerful combination of FAB mass spectrometric mapping and gas-phase microsequencing.

    Notes: The metabolism of 17α-methyl-17β-hydroxy-2-oxa-5α-androstan-3-one (oxandrolone) in man has been investigated by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. After oral administration of a 10 mg dose to man, five metabolites were detected in the free fraction of the urinary samples. Oxandrolone, the major compound excreted in urine, was detected within 72 h after administration. During this period 35.8 and 8.4% of the administered dose was excreted as unchanged oxandrolone and 17-epioxandrolone, respectively. In addition, minute amounts of 16α- and 16β- hydroxyoxandrolone and a δ-hydroxy acid resulting from the hydrolysis of the lactone group of oxandrolone were detected in the urine samples 8-60 h after administration. Furthermore, the susceptibility of oxandrolone to hydrolysis was investigated under several pH conditions. Extraction and fractionation of steroidal metabolites was achieved by using C18 and silica Sep Pak™ chromatography. The mass spectra of the metabolites are presented and major fragmentation pathways discussed.

    Notes: An increasing amount of evidence is accumulating to support the proposal that steroidogenesis can occur by a sesterterpene pathway as well as the cholesterol pathway. Key intermediates on the sesterterpene pathway are 23,24-dinor-5-cholen-3β-ol (guneribol) and some of its metabolites, e.g. 23,24-dinor-4-cholen-3-one (guneribone). It has been reported that these intermediates are biosynthesized and converted to steroid hormones by a range of endocrine tissues in vitro. Monitoring the pentafluorobenzyloxime derivatives by negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry in the electron capture mode provided evidence for the presence of guneribone in extracts of bovine testicular and human adrenal tumour tissue. Complementary evidence was obtained from gas chromatographic/tandem mass spectrometric data generated on a triple-quadrupole instrument by monitoring daughter ions (in the multiple ion detection, MID mode) of the molecular anion of derivatized guneribone in both standards and tissue extracts. The present findings that sesterterpene pathway intermediates are present as endogenous compounds in tissue extracts, together with the previously reported radiochemical data, give further support to the sesterterpene pathway hypothesis.

    Notes: A gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric analytical procedure is described to determine glycols in plasma as cyclic butyl boronate esters. The method, involving a pre-deproteinization step, required only 0.25 ml of plasma and a short time (20 min) to react with the derivatizing agent (butyl boronic acid). The gas chromatographic separation on a CP Sil 8 CB silica capillary column coupled to a mass detector assured a complete identification of the compounds. The analytical recoveries (〉95%) with low coefficient of variation (4-11%) assured the feasibility of the method over a concentration range from 5 to 1000 μg ml-1 for each glycol. The lower detection limits, namely 1-5 μg ml-1, confirmed the sensitivity of the method.

    Notes: A number of sulphonyl hydrazones and derivatives have been synthesized and tested for biological activity as pesticides during the crop protection research programme at the Hatfield Polytechnic. A recent comparative ionization study of some of these compounds using electron impact (EI), fast atom bombardment (FAB) and various chemical ionization methods showed FAB mass spectrometry to be the optimum technique to use in terms of molecular weight information obtained. This study compares the FAB mass spectral data in positive and negative ion mode using an alternating positive and negative ion detection system.

    Notes: The thermospray liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) interface has had a major impact on the direct analysis of the metabolic fate of xenobiotics in complex biological media. This paper outlines the rapidity and power of the LC/MS approach, and shows how detailed structural information can be obtained without recourse to individual compound isolation. This provides a great saving in time and effort. The additional specificity of liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry is highlighted in identifying the sites of metabolic transformation. The ability to handle biological samples with little or no clean-up using wide high-performance liquid chromatographic gradients is a key feature of the success of this methodology.

    Notes: Several populations of Achillea species were collected from Hungarian localities. The characteristic composition cf the essential oils of almost 220 populations were determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The main component of Achillea asplenifolia, A. setacea and A. collina oils is chamazulene, with a molecular mass of 184. The composition of some A. setacea is different: instead of chamazulene it contains a significant amount of farnesene. Oils of A. distans, A. crithmifolia, A. nobilis, A. pannonica and A. ochroleuca contain some different and specific compounds instead of chamazulene. During the analysis of many essential oils, we found some very interesting differences within species originating from another geographical area.

    Notes: Deficiency of biotin at the tissue level can be assessed indirectly by measuring the urinary excretion of 3-hydroxyisovaleric acid. This paper describes the application of an improved method of quantifying urinary 3-hydroxyisovaleric acid using unlabeled and uniformly deuterated 3-hydroxyisovaleric acid. These compounds were synthesized by a modification of the lithioacetic acid method for generation of beta-hydroxy acids. Elemental analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance, gas chromatographic and gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric data demonstrated that the compounds are greater than 95% pure. Mass spectrometry confirmed the identity of the unlabeled compound, demonstrated that the deuterated compound is uniformly labeled, and offered insight into the pattern of mass fragmentation. The method for determination of the concentration of 3-hydroxyisovaleric acid in rat urine uses gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric quantification of the di-trimethylsilyl derivative with the deuterated compound as the internal standard. Results provide evidence that this method is more accurate than a previously published method that did not utilize the unlabeled and deuterated standards.

    Notes: The metabolism of deutrated cortisol (9,12,12,-2H)cortisol, (2H3-F) was compared to that of radioactive cortisol (3H2-F) and natural cortisol, when these three compounds were administered simultaneously to an adrenalectomized piglet. The relative isotope dilution of tritium was determined from the specific activities of the main urinary neutral cortisol metabolites, tetrahydrocortisone (THE) and tetrahydrocortisol (THF), normalized to that of the cortisol mixture administered. To obtain a comparison of the isotope dilution of deuterium in the metabolites THE and THF to that in the cortisol mixture, the three steroids were converted to the common oxidation product 11-oxo-aetiocholanolone, and deivatized to the methoxime-tert-butyl-dimethylsilyl ether. The relative 2H-isotope dilution then was measured by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. It was found that the specific activity of THE in the cumulative urine collections was similar to that of the cortisol mixture administered; the two-day value was, however, less. The specific activity of THF was slightly but significantly smaller than 1 (∼0.9) at all times. The relative 2H-isotope dilution in THE was slightly but significantly larger than one (∼1.1) at all times, whereas that in the THF was larger than 1.0 at 9 and 32 h or equal to 1.0 at 20 and 47 h of urine collection. When comparing the metabolism of the two tracer cortisol species the quotient of the 3H- and the 2H-isotope dilutions in THE and THF was smaller than 1.0. It can be concluded that (2H3)cortisol may be used for the determination of the cortisol production rate.

    Notes: The characterization of the components of a surfactant mixture is a challenge, since we are dealing with substances inherently difficult to purify or separate by any available chromatographic methods. The results of the present work provide evidence that with fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry it is possible to identify the single constituents of the different clases of tensides - non-ionic, anionic, cationic and amphoteric - directly in the mixture and in detergent formulations (shampoos). The method, which is based on unambiguous molecular weight determination of the single components, allows the definition of the exact distribution of oligomers in the surfactant mixture, and distinction of subtle variations in the detergent composition in finished formulations. The results obtained indicate that this technique is a powerful analytical tool which can be used as a rapid screen test for quality control.

    Notes: The in vivo biliary and urinary metabolites of (±)-N-methyl-N-(1-methyl-3,3-diphenylpropyl) formamide (1) from male Wistar rats have been characterized by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. In urine, non-conjugated metabolites included 1,1-diphenyl-3-butanone (4) and 3-methylamino-1,1, diphenylbutane (7). β-Glucuronidase liberated 4, 1,1-diphenyl-3-butanol (5), 1,1-diphenyl-3-butanone oxime (6), N-hydroxymethyl-N-(1-methyl-3, 3-diphenylpropyl) formamide (3), 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-butanone (11), 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-butanone oxime (12), N-methyl-N-(1-methyl-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropyl) formamide (8), 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-butanone (16), 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-butanol (17), 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-butanone oxime (18), N-(1-methyl-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropyl) formamide (14) and N-methyl-N-(1-methyl-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropyl) formamide (13). Most of the carbinolamide (3) decomposed in the gas chromatograph inlet to N-(1-methyl-3,3-diphenylpropyl) formamide (2) unless stabilized as a trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivative. In bile, compounds 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 11, 12 and 16 were present as non-conjugated metabolites. β-Glucuronidase also liberated N-(1-methyl-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropyl) formamide (9), and all of the previously listed compounds except 7. Trimethylsilylation of the conjugated bile fraction revealed the presence of an additional two compunds: N-hydroxymethyl-N-(1-methyl-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropyl) formamide (10) and N-hydroxymethyl-N-(1-methyl-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropyl) formamide (15). A stable carbinolamide metabolite standard was synthesized and the mass spectral fragmentations of its TMS derivative studied by tandem mass spectroscopy. This is the first report on stable carbinolamide metabolites of high-molecular-weight formamides.

    Notes: Human cerumen was hydrolysed with base and the constituents were examined as trimethylsilyl (TMS), methyl ester/TMS, picolinyl/TMS and nicotinate/TMS derivatives by gas chromatography and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. A sample was also reacted with osmium tetroxide for double bond location. The major constituents were cholesterol, squalene and several series of long-chain fatty acids and alcohols. These latter compounds had chain lengths of 12-26 carbon atoms and were predominantly either straight-chain saturated or straight-chain unsaturated compounds. Saturated branched-chain acids with methyl groups predominantly on even-numbered carbon atoms were present but were less abundant. Unsaturated, branched-chain acids were also present. The major unsaturated acids contained unsaturation at the delta-6-position or were derived from these acids by chain elongation. The compounds were similar to those found in vernix caseosa. The mass spectra of picolinyl esters were, for the first time, shown to be capable of determining both the position of unsaturation and methyl branching in the same molecule.

    Notes: Daughter ion mass spectral data of [M + H]+ ions of leucine enkephalin and physalaemin, which were formed by fast atom bombardment, were obtained using an instrument of EBQQ configuration. In the case of leucine enkephalin, experiments were carried out in which the collision energy was varied and the collision gas pressure kept constant and vice versa. The results show that conditions can be established under which seuqence-relevant ions above m/z 200 are formed, as well as under which mainly immonium and acylium type ions are generated. Of possible interest for characterization of unknown peptides, when using hybrid instruments, are the mid-chain cleavage ions, which, at a constant argon gas pressure of 5 × 10-6 mbat, were found to maximize at around 30 eV collision energy. Daughter ion mass spectral data are also presented for [M + H]+ ions of physalaemin (mol. wt 1264). Compared to data obtained for physalaemin on multisector instruments, our results indicate that the formation of mid-chain cleavage ions is clearly enhanced.

    Notes: The supernatants of Vero cell cultures after infection with a herpes simplex virus or a poliomyelitis virus as well as a blank were analysed by pyrolysis/direct chemical ionization mass spectrometry (Py/DCI MS). Informative pyrogrammes were obtained and used for characterization of viral proteins by applying pattern recognition methods. Differentiation of viral proteins was evaluated by analysing ‘blind’ samples. Herpes viruses could be classified correctly but the observed differences between the blank and the polio virus supernatants were too small for reliable classification of the polio viruses. Purification of the samples seems to be a prerequisite for further studies. The potential value of Py/DCI MS as a rapid non-invasive diagnostic method for viral meningoencephalitis is stressed.

    Notes: Experimental variables in fast atom bombardment combined with tandem mass spectrometry based on low-energy collision-induced dissociation have been systematically invetigated in order to optimize parameters for analysis of synthetic lipo-oligopeptides. The parameters studied were matrix, ion polarity, collision gas, collision gas pressure and collision energy. The optimal parameters recommended in this study have been applied to the N-terminal amino acid seuquence determination of lipopeptide obtained from Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton. Daughter and parent ion experiments with negative ion fast atom bombardment combined with tandem mass spectrometry have proven to be very useful for structure elucidation of a complex mixture of lipo-oligopeptides.

    Notes: Increasingly widespread usage of stable isotope tracers to aid clinical diagnosis and support basic research has stemmed from both advances in mass spectrometry and the availability of competitively priced labelled compounds. Stable isotopes have been used generally to investigate normal and abnormal metabolic pathways, to estimate energy expenditure and body composition and to quantitate substrate flux and oxidation rates. Despite the fact that the underlying principles relating to the use of stable isotopes for in vivo studies are straightforward, careful consideration must be given to all aspects of human studies. This review highlights some of these, including choice of label and tracer molecule, mode of tracer administration and sampling site, analytical instrumentation, interpretation of data and ethical constraints.

    Notes: The glucuronide of N-1-hydroxy-ethyl flurazepam has been analysed by a direct liquid inlet liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometric system using MeOH/H2O (70:30 v/v) as mobile phase, at a flow rate of 0.7 ml min-1. Urine samples were purified by amberlite XAD-2 chromatography; the glucuronide was quantified by highperformance liquid chromatography using a counterion (tetrabutyl ammonium nitrate in methanol). Chromatographic results were validated by an enzymatic method: treatment of the samples with β-glucuronidase and extraction of the parent drug with ethyl ether at pH 9. The biological application of this method was demonstrated by determination of this glucuronide in the urine of healthy human volunteers following a single intravenous administration of 50 mg of N-1-hydroxy-ethyl flurazepam.

    Notes: Domoic acid is a naturally occurring amino acid, formerly available in limited amounts as a natural product of some algae of the family Rhodomelaceae. As the result of a recent incidence of toxicity in cultured blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) from a highly localized region of Atlantic Canada, useful amounts of this substance are likely to become available in the near future. Domoic acid is an important substance for fundamental studies in neurobiology as it possesses the highest affinity amongst known substances for the kainate receptors of the central nervous system. The present work describes fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectra of domoic acid, and of some of its isomers present in minor quantities in contaminated mussel extracts. These FAB spectra are subject to interferences from beam-inducced reduction reactions associated with matrices such as glycerol, but not with others such as 3-nitrobenzyl alcohol. Tandem mass spectrometry of the MH+ ions from these compounds is also reported. As a more feasible approach to quantitative analysis at trace levels, formation of the volatile tert-butyldimethylsilyl derivatives has been investigated and shown to be highly promising.

    Notes: Collisionally activated decomposition mass spectra of M-. ions of azo dyes are presented. The compounds are of general structure Ar(1)—N=N—Ar(2), where Ar(1) is substituted phenyl and Ar(2) is 2-naphthol. Characteristic fragment ions observed include m/z 157, which corresponds to the 2-naphthol substituent with cleavage of the —N=N— bond represented as [Ar(2) - N]-.. Ion of general structure [Ar(1)- NH]- are also observed. Parent ion scans of m/z 157 provide a potential screening technique for 2-naphthol-containing axo dyes. Specific results are reported for the chloroform extract of FD&C Red #8, and capillary gas chromatographic introduction is compared with direct exposure probe introduction for the identification of dyes.

    Notes: In order to determine the fraction of an intravenous bolus dose of ketamine which is metabolized in vivo to the corresponding N-desmethyl compound, norketamine, a novel stable isotope technique was developed and applied to a study in rats. Co-injection of equimoiar amounts of deuterium-labeled ketamine and unlabeled norketamine to four animals, followed by gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric analysis of both the administered compounds and deuterium-labeled norketamine in plasma yielded pharmacokinetic data from which the fraction of the parent drug subjected to N-demethylation (fm) was calculated from AUC data to be 36.8 ± 2.4%. It is concluded that this stable isotope co-administration technique represents a powerful approach to the determination of fm, in that the pharmacokinetics of the metabolite of interest, given as the preformed compound and generated in vivo, are determined simultaneously. This experimental design thus obviates the influence of time-dependent changes in metabolite clearance which may complicate the interpretation of studies performed using the classical cross-over design.

    Notes: Rats given 2-octynoic acid by intraperitoneal injection excrete elevated amounts of medium-chain dicarboxylic acids and other acidic metabolites usually associated with human medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. Onset of this organic acid profile is immediate and lasts for approximately 24 h. The induced acidosis in this animal model closely, acutely and transiently resembles the human disorder. The 2-octynoate load is also extensively Ω- and Ψ-oxidized, and evidence is presented for the enzymic hydration of 2-octynoate to 3-ketooctanoic acid.

    Notes: A series of dyes belonging to different chemical classes have been analyzed by thermospray (TSP) ionization mass spectrometry using a modified source containing a wire-repeller. Detection limits were determined and found to be in the range 0.05-20 ng, which are lower by a factor of 10-400 than previously published results. Positive-ion TSP mass spectra of some sulfonated dyes could be recorded for the first time owing to the increased sensitivity. Losses of SO3Na and 2SO3Na as well as losses of Na and 2Na were observed. The losses of each one of these groups involved replacement by a hydrogen atom.

    Notes: A specific and sensitive gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric method was developed and validated for the quantitative determination of the aromatase inhibitor CGS 16 949 in plasma and urine. A deuterium-labelled analogue of CGS 16 949 was used as internal standard. The analysis of spiked samples demonstrated the good accuracy and precision of the method. For both plasma and urine, the limit of quantification (LOQ: coefficient of variation (CV) = 10%) and the limit of detection (LOD: CV = 100%) were estimated to be 5 and 1 nmol l-1, respectively. The method was applied to the determination of unchanged CGS 16 949 in plasma and urine of a healthy volunteer orally dosed with 1 mg of CGS 16 949 A.

    Notes: The determination of pipecolic acid in serum or plasma by positive chemical ionization gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is assessed. This quantitative method involves stable isotope dilution and cation-exchange solid-phase extraction. Several derivatives of pipecolic acid and its octadeuterated analogue were investigated for their mass spectrometric characteristics. The beptafluorobutyric methyl ester derivatives afford optimal resolution on gas chromatography of biological extracts. Moreover, the derivatizing reagent (methanolic HCl) allows a combined elution and derivatization. Selected ion monitoring is performed on the [M + H]+ ions of both analyte and internal standard, at m/z 340 and 348, respectively. Serum or plasma samples from healthy subjects and patients suspected of peroxisomal diseases have been examined.

    Notes: Laser microprobe mass spectrometry has been applied to a variety of organic polyfunctional molecules, covering a wide range of polarity and mass spectrometric behaviour. The technique apparently combines desorption under relatively soft conditions with extensive fragmentation and hence allows much structural information from intactly released thermolabiles to be obtained. The mass spectra appear unfamiliar in comparison to conventional techniques. Interpretation is attempted in a purely empirical way by means of the evidence from our database and tentative hypotheses to rationalize the desorption and ionization by laser microbeam irradiation of organic solids. Selected examples are presented to illustrate the potential and limitations of the method in the field of biomolecules, such as pyridoxine and pyridoxal phosphate, nucleosides, nucleotides and related analogues, drugs and the corresponding N-oxides.

    Notes: The collision-induced dissociation mass spectrum, observed with a hybrid tandem instrument, of the ammonia chemical ionization protonated molecular ion of chloramphenicol was used for the detection of residues of the drug in biological samples. The extracted oil from fish was subjected to a rapid clean-up on a pre-packed silica gel cartridge prior to non-chromatographic tandem mass spectral analysis. Fat extracted from milk was analysed directly by on-line combined high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry with rapid elution of chloramphenicol. Identification was on the basis of agreement of the daughter ion spectra obtained from sample extracts with that of the chloramphenicol standard. Detection was unambiguous at 0.5 mg kg-1. The sensitivity advantage normally expected with multiple reaction monitoring was not achieved owing to the effect of neutral noise phenomena.

    Notes: Metabolism of cyclosporin A (CsA) was studied in a model of isolated and perfused rabbit liver, and in man. After diethyl ether extraction, CsA metabolites were separated and successfully purified by a combination of two highperformance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedures. A normal-phase HPLC methodology was used to separate most of the metabolites, and further separation and purification were optimized with a reversed-phase HPLC method. 27 different CsA metabolites were separated, collected, and characterized by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. In addition to several metabolites already described (OL-1, OL-17, OL-18 and OL-21), new compounds (of original molecular weights 1236, 1222 and 1174, and numerous structural isomers of previously reported molecular weights) were isolated from rabbit and human bile. Mass spectral analysis of two of these new metabolites strongly suggests vicinal dihydrodiol (mol. wt 1236) and N-demethylated vicinal dihydrodiol (mol. wt 1222) structures. These two new metabolites most probably derive from an epoxide as a preliminary intermediate.

    Notes: Packed capillary liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry using a moving belt interface is a practical, versatile technique for the identification of unknowns. The low flow rates (1-2 μl min-1) improve the operation of the moving belt and allow direct deposition of eluates from reversed-phase liquid chromatographic columns containing large proportions of water. Column performance and durability is equivalent to that obtained with conventional or microbore liquid chromatographic columns. Techniques have been developed for analyzing dilute solutions with no loss in column performance and for the detection of radiolabeled metabolites. Applications to analyses of polar, thermally labile compounds and environmental samples are presented.

    Notes: Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) can be detected by thermospray liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) only when the system is operated in the negative ion mode with filament on and some water entering the thermospray source. A new mechanism for PFC ionization is proposed, based on studies of LC/MS detection of the perfluorinated forms of cyclohexane, methyl and dimethyl cyclohexane, decalin, 1-methyl decalin and toluene. The ion evaporation mechanism of Dodd, involving pre-ionization of PFCs in the presence of aqueous NH4OAc, is not operative, nor is chemical ionization of PFCs by the reagent ions as in true thermospray LC/MS. Instead, PFC ionization is attributable to the negative ions formed from the water in the source; these ions undergo prompt charge-exchange reactions with the more electronegative PFCs to form structure-retaining PFC ions.

    Notes: Suppression effects observed in plasma desorption (PD) mass spectrometry have been studied and compared to those found in fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. A basic difference in the mechanism of suppression in the two techniques is demonstrated. In positive ion mode PD mass spectrometry, peptides carrying net positive charges are preferentially detected when analysed together with peptides carrying net negative charges, and in negative ion mode PD mass spectrometry, the situation is generally reversed. Based on this complementarity, PD mapping carried out by enzymatic digestion of a nitrocellulose-bound sample can in many cases yield almost complete coverage of smaller proteins.

    Notes: Fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry and FAB tandem mass spectrometry in negative mode can provide molecular weight and very useful structural prior information for C-glycosyl flavonoids without derivatization. Diethanolamine or thioglycerol matrix gave an abundant deprotonated molecular ion for all the studied compounds. Mass-analysed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) and collision-activated dissociation/MIKE spectra provide characteristic fragment ions which permit differentiation of the 6- and/or 8-location, and the position of O-glycosylation.

    Notes: The use of high-performance liquid chromatography and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry are shown to be an efficient combination for investigating protease-mediated digestion of synthetic analogs of the peptide hormone ANF (atrial natriuretic factor). As examples of the reported methodology, rANF5-23-NH2 and rANF7-23-NH2 were digested with the endopeptidase thermolysin. These truncated analogs were selected to investigate metabolism within the disulfide-linked core of ANF, particularly at the Cys7—Phe8 bond. While this position was the site of initial hydrolysis for rANF5-23-NH2 (t1/2 = 0.5 min), the Cys7—Phe8 bond remained intact for all observed degradation products of rANF7-23-NH2 (t1/2 = 16 min). These findings suggest that improved stability towards endopeptidase-mediated core hydrolysis may be conferred to analogs of ANF by removal of the first six residues from the N-terminus.

    Notes: Laser ionization of guanosines containing methyl substitutions in the 1-, N2-, 3′-O-, O6- and 7- positions generated two characteristic negative ions: loss of hydrogen to generate [M - H]- and elimination of the sugar ring to form the nucleic base ion. The ions generated by elimination of the sugar ring provided the information necessary to determine whether the methyl group was on the nucleic base or sugar ring. Fourier transform mass spectrometry was used to isolate and collisionally dissociate selected negative ions from these nucleosides. The collisional dissociation spectra indicated daughter ions which were sufficient to differentiate all the isomers with methyl substitution of the nucleic bases. In addition, accurate mass measurement an dsequential collisional dissociation experiments were employed to investigate fragmentation mechanisms.

    Notes: The mass spectra of many rifamycins cannot be obtained by electron ionization (EI) owing to their thermal decomposition. When a laser beam is used to vaporize the sample through an optic fibre inserted in a hollow probe which reaches the sample cup, decomposition is minimized and the EI spectra show abundant molecular ions and fragments of structurally high diagnostic value. These ionic species are easily observed owing to the lack of chemical noise often present in soft ionization methods, such as direct liquid chemical ionization and fast atom bombardment.

    Notes: The conversion of oestrogens mixed derivatives comprising a phenolic silyl ether and one or more alcoholic perfluoroactyl ester(s) is described. They are easily formed in quantitative yield and have excellent gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric properties, making them suitable for analysis by selected ion monitoring. Reaction mechanisms are examined which propose explanations for the experimentally observed optimal reaction conditions. The 3-t-butyldimethylsilyl ether-16α 17β-bis(pentafluoropropionate) has been used for the quantitative determination of oestriol in plasma by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry using a stable isotope internal standard. Comparison with the pertrimethylsilyl ether of oestriol indicates higher specificity and better precision for low-level (〈0.5 ng ml-1) estimations.

    Notes: Like most dyes, Basic Yellow 2 (BY-2) fades upon prolonged exposure to light. Light-induced fading is a complex process that is also affected by heat and humidity. In order to better understand the photodegradation process and to identify the various photodegradation products of BY-2, fabric samples and solutions containing BY-2 were exposed to a variety of fading conditions. The analysis of faded BY-2 dyed fabric extracts by high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) indicated the reduction and hydrolysis of the C=NH2+ group to form primarily benzophenone derivatives, as well as various demethylated products. Due to the absence of fragmentation in the thermospray spectra (only [M + H]+ ions were observed) the dye extracts were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) to confirm the identity of the degradation products. Many of the degradation products were sufficiently volatile for analysis by GC/MS. Mass spectra of the photodegradation products of BY-2 exhibited molecular ions and structurally important fragment ions to complement the thermospray data. The mass spectral data indicated that the most prevalent degradation product formed was ((CH3)2NC6H4)2C=0 (Michler's ketone). Hydrolysis of the C=NH2+ group to C=0 is the main color-destroying reaction in the fading of BY-2. Demethylation products which can alter the shades of color were also detected in the faded BY-2 samples.

    Notes: Methanesulfinic and methanesulfonic acids were shown to be present in urine from rats fed laboratory rat diet. The daily excretions of each acid were equivalent at 0.47 μmol day-1. The excretion of methanesulfinic acid increased about ninefold and that of methanesulfonic doubled when rats were dosed with 17 μmol of pentachlorothioanisole. The excretion of methanesulfinic acid above control levels in urine may be a method for detecting methylthio displacements that occur during the intermediary metabolism of xenobiotics.

    Notes: A set of 4-monosubstituted cyclopentenes, , were synthesized and their relative rates (kX/kH) for bromination and chlorination were determined in methanol, ethanol and acetic acid at 25 °C by competitive method. log(kX/kH) for most of the substituents can be correlated by means of Taft's equation, log(kX/kH) = ρI σI + C. In methanol ρI, Br2 = -2·91, ρI, Cl2 = -0·49, in ethanol ρI, Br2 = -3·07, ρI, Cl2 = -0·70 and in acetic acid ρI, Br2 = -1·64, ρI, Cl2 = -0·65. The presence of C(〈0) is due to a constant steric effect. The deviation of X = H is ascribed to the absence of the steric effect and that of X = CO2Me and CO2Et is accounted for in terms of anchimeric assistance. For chlorination no anchimeric assistance was observed.

    Notes: The cyclic vinyl ether dihydro-1,4-dioxin is converted to its cyclic hemiacetal hydration product, 2-hydroxy-1,4-dioxane, in aqueous solution by an acid-catalyzed reaction for which kH+ = 1·80 × 10-5 M-1 S-1 at 25°C. This reactivity and the solvent isotope effect kH+/kD+ = 2·2 show that the reaction occurs by rate-determining proton transfer from catalyst to substrate and not by a pre-equilibrium mechanism as recently proposed.2
