Making Broad Proteome Protein Measurements in 1−5 min Using High-Speed RPLC Separations and High-Accuracy Mass Measurements
2005
The throughput of proteomics measurements that provide broad protein coverage is limited by the quality and speed of both the separations as well as the subsequent mass spectrometric analysis; at present, analysis times can range anywhere from hours (high throughput) to days or longer (low throughput). We have explored the basis for proteomics analyses conducted on the order of minutes using high-speed capillary RPLC combined through on-line electrospray ionization interface with high-accuracy mass spectrometry (MS) measurements. Short 0.8-microm porous C18 particle-packed 50-microm-i.d. capillaries were used to speed the RPLC separations while still providing high-quality separations. Both…
Determination of a three-step excitation and ionization scheme for resonance ionization and ultratrace analysis of Np-237
2011
Abstract The long-lived radio isotope 237 Np is generated within the nuclear fuel cycle and represents a major hazard in the final disposal of nuclear waste. Related geochemical research requires sensitive methods for the detection of ultratrace amounts of neptunium in environmental samples. Resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS) has proven to be one of the most sensitive methods for the detection of plutonium. A precondition for the application of RIMS to ultratrace analysis of neptunium is the knowledge of an efficient and selective scheme for optical excitation and ionization. Therefore, a multitude of medium to high-lying atomic levels in neptunium was located by applying in-sour…
Direct identification of 103–107Mo by a rapid chemical separation procedure
1977
Abstract The nuclides 103–107Mo have been identified by means of γ-ray spectroscopy after the separation of molybdenum from fission products of 235U and 239Pu by a rapid chemical procedure. Half-lives of 67.5 ± 1.5 s for 103Mo, 59.4 ± 0.8 s for 104Mo, 36.7 ± 1.0 s for 105Mo, 8.4 ± 0.5 s for 106Mo and 3.5 ± 0.5 s for 107Mo have been determined and the main γ-lines were assigned to the decay of these isotopes. Some evidence for 108Mo with a half-life ≤2 s has also been obtained.
Charged supramolecular assemblies of surfactant molecules in gas phase
2015
The aim of this review is to critically analyze recent literature on charged supramolecular assemblies formed by surfactant molecules in gas phase. Apart our specific interest on this research area, the stimuli to undertake the task arise from the widespread theoretical and applicative benefits emerging from a comprehensive view of this topic. In fact, the study of the formation, stability, and physicochemical peculiarities of non-covalent assemblies of surfactant molecules in gas phase allows to unveil interesting aspects such as the role of attractive, repulsive, and steric intermolecular interactions as driving force of supramolecular organization in absence of interactions with surround…
Multicommutation as a powerful new analytical tool
2002
This review presents the state of the art of the emerging continuous-flow methodology based on solenoid valves. This uses flow networks to deliver sample and reagent solutions by controlling the time of flow through the ON/OFF modes of solenoid valves and takes advantage of existing flow injection analysis (FIA) or sequential injection analysis (SIA) device or manifold configurations. It allows one to insert a single plug of sample (or reagent) into the carrier or carrier-reagent stream, mimicking the approaches of FIA or SIA. In addition to the modes used in FIA and SIA, the methodology provides a different mode, based on delivery of a series of alternating sequential insertions of very sm…
Synergies between Hyperpolarized NMR and Microfluidics: A Review
2021
Hyperpolarized nuclear magnetic resonance and lab-on-a-chip microfluidics are two dynamic, but until recently quite distinct, fields of research. Recent developments in both areas increased their synergistic overlap. By microfluidic integration, many complex experimental steps can be brought together onto a single platform. Microfluidic devices are therefore increasingly finding applications in medical diagnostics, forensic analysis, and biomedical research. In particular, they provide novel and powerful ways to culture cells, cell aggregates, and even functional models of entire organs. Nuclear magnetic resonance is a non-invasive, high-resolution spectroscopic technique which allows real-…
1H, 13C, 15N NMR, ESI mass spectral and single crystal X-ray structural characterization of three spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles]
2006
Abstract Three spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles], 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-phenyl-spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine]-2′-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1), 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-nitro-2′-phenyl-spiro[3H-indole-3, 3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine] (2) and 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-nitro-2′-(4″-chlorophenyl)-spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine] (3) have been synthesized and their 1H, 13C and 15N spectra assigned. The chemical shift assignments are based on Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) Double Quantum Filter (DQF) 1H, 1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), PFG 1H, 13C Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) and PFG 1H,X (X = 13C and 15N) Heteronuc…
Identity Double-Proton Transfer in (3Z)-3-Hydroxy-1,4-di(quinolin-2-yl)but-3-en-2-one
2003
Although there is a very fast (on the NMR timescale) double-proton transfer in (1Z,3Z)-3-hydroxy-4-quinolin-2-yl-1-quinolin-2(1H)-ylidenbut-3-en-2-one (the product of the condensation of ethyl oxalate with 2-lithiomethylquinoline), it is the only species present in chloroform solution. Comparison of the product of condensation of ethyl oxalate with 2-lithiomethyl derivatives of pyridine (recent studies) and quinoline (present studies) shows that benzoannulation considerably affects the tautomeric equilibrium. The observed changes are not only quantitative but also qualitative. Moreover, contrary to the proton transfer in the pyridine tautomers, this process is fast in the quinoline tautomer…
Comparative NMR and IR spectral, X-ray structural and theoretical studies of eight 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxides
2007
Abstract Eight 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxides are characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray structures for three congeners are reported. In addition, the transmission of substituent effects in conjugated double bond system of 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxide framework has been evaluated by calculating the correlations between selected 13C NMR chemical shifts and IR stretching wave numbers and Hammett constants of the substituents locating in the phenyl ring of the arylidene moiety.
NMR studies of benzoannulation in lithium, sodium and potassium ortho-formylphenolates
2010
Abstract Lithium, sodium and potassium derivatives of (benzo)salicylaldehydes have been prepared and characterized by 1 H and 13 C NMR in order to see how the metal cation and benzoannulation affect spectral parameters. There is no qualitative effect of the alkali metal atom in the compounds studied (from this point of view salicylaldehydes remind β-diketones). On the other hand, 1 H chemical shifts of the hydroxyl and formyl protons and 13 C chemical shifts of C2 (bearing OX, X = H, Li, Na or K) and of that the formyl carbon show the most significant variations being the best indicators of aromatic character of the six-membered quasi-ring of salicylaldehyde. In contrast, C1 (bearing formyl…
