Capabilities of different liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry systems in determining pesticide residues in food
2007
Abstract Three different liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) instruments equipped with triple quadrupole (QqQ), quadrupole ion trap (QIT) and quadrupole-time-of-flight (QqTOF), suitable to carry out tandem mass spectrometry, were examined to determine pesticide residues in food. Twelve pesticides (acrinathrin, bupirimate, buprofezin, cyproconazole, λ-cyhalothrin, fluvalinate, hexaflumuron, kresoxim-methyl, propanil, pyrifenox, pyriproxyfen and tebufenpyrad) and six matrices (oranges, strawberries, cherries, peaches, apricots and pears) were taken as model. The comparison was focused on two aspects: the quantitative, covering sensitivity, precision and accuracy as well as the qua…
1-Naphthyl Acetate-Dependent Medium Acidification by Zea mays L. Coleoptile Segments
1991
Zea mays L. cv INRA 5a coleoptile segments ecidify the incubation medium on the addition of 1-naphthyl acetate (1-NA). The buffering capacity of the bathing solution increases during 1-NA stimulated medium acidification. The solution bathing the 1-NA treated coleoptile segment was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. A considerable amount of acetic acid was detected in the bathing solution used to measure 1-NA-dependent medium acidification. For the first time, the data demonstrate directly the release of acetic acid from 1-NA. The extent of medium acidification was proportional to 1-NA concentration. Simultaneous measurement of medium acidification and acetate content upon a…
MALDI-TOF characterization of macromonomers
1996
Methacryloyl endfunctionalized oligostyrene macromonomers were characterized by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization/time of flight (MALDI-TOF) spectroscopy and by isocratic and gradient high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The molar mass distribution derived by the different techniques coincide for the investigated oligomers. Mixing experiments revealed that the MALDI-TOF peak areas do not necessarily represent the mixing ratio of the components. Combination of gradient HPLC and MALDI-TOF has resolved the chemical composition of the coupling products formed by reaction of the living anion with oxygen.
Optimization of the phase system in the analysis of polynuclear aromatics (PNA) from diesel engine exhaust by high performance liquid chromatography …
1979
Polynuclear aromatics (PNA) were collected and enriched from diesel engine exhausts by means of a probe and an absorber system. Group separation of PNA from other constituents of exhaust was accomplished through elution with n-heptane on a silica column. A variety of phase systems ranging from unpolar to strong polar packings and eluents, respectively, were tested to resolve PNA into single species. Of these a n-octadecyl bonded silica packing and methanol/water was found to be the most optimal with regard to resolution for real PNA mixtures. Separation was completed within 2–3 h at isocratic conditions.
Limits of multi-linear gradient optimisation in reversed-phase liquid chromatography
2005
Abstract The concept of limiting peak purity was applied to quantify the degree of completion of the separation capability of a chromatographic system using multi-linear gradients. The objective was to check whether the complexity of a gradient program deserves be increased to enhance resolution by inserting more linear segments, or on the contrary, no significant improvements can be expected under more complex gradients. A set of 19 isoindole derivatives of primary amino acids was selected to test the performance of isocratic, single linear and multi-linear gradients. Accurate simulated chromatograms were obtained via numerical integration of the general equation of gradient elution, using…
Packings and stationary phases for biopolymer separations by HPLC
1987
Packings and stationary phases applied to high resolution separations of proteins, enzymes, and nucleic acids must satisfy a series of distinct criteria that are different from those usually required by HPLC of low molecular weight non-biologically active analytes. These requirements have been met through substantial improvements in classical gel media together with novel developments in silica supports, and have led to a family of products with tailor-made and reproducible properties. Supports consisting of cross-linked organic gels, and inorganic materials (mostly silicas) are now available with graduated particle sizes, pore sizes, porosities and surface areas as well as non-porous beads…
Classification of Extra Virgin Olive Oils Produced at La Comunitat Valenciana According to Their Genetic Variety Using Sterol Profiles Established by…
2009
A method to classify extra virgin olive oils (EVOOs) according to their genetic variety using sterol profiles obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with mass spectrometry (MS) detection has been developed. Sterol extracts were chromatographed on a dC18 Atlantis column (100x3 mm, 3 microm) with a gradient of acetonitrile/water (0.01% acetic acid) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min(-1) and positive-ion mode MS detection. Using linear discriminant analysis of the HPLC-MS data (extracted ion chromatograms), EVOO samples belonging to six genetic varieties cultivated at La Comunitat Valenciana, Spain (Arbequina, Borriolenca, Canetera, Farga, Picual, and Serrana), were correctly clas…
Resolution of inherently chiral resorcarene derivatives by enantioselective HPLC
1999
Abstract The HPLC enantiomeric resolution of five inherently chiral tetrabenzoxazine derivatives of resorcarenes has been achieved by HPLC using Whelk-Ol and in one case Chiralpak AD as stationary phases. Enantiomeric separation was only observed in a very narrow range of mobile phase compositions. On-column enantiomeric interconversion of a racemic compound with a typical plateau-like elution profile was observed using a Chiralpak AD column
Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of proteins and polypeptides on polystyrene-coated silica supports
1990
Abstract A new type of hydrolytically stable reversed-phase packing material prepared by multi-point covalent binding of polystyrene chains onto the surface of porous silica was examined in the high-performance liquid chromatography of proteins and polypeptides. Whereas wide-pore material was shown to give a rapid and efficient resolution of proteins, packings with smaller pores provided better selectivities for peptides.
Bio-phenols determination in olive oils: Recent mass spectrometry approaches
2021
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is largely used in Mediterranean diet, and it is also worldwide apprised not only for its organoleptic properties but also for its healthy effects mainly attributed to the presence of several naturally occurring phenolic and polyphenolic compounds (bio-phenols). These compounds are characterized by the presence of multiple phenolic groups in more or less complex structures. Their content is fundamental in defining the healthy qualities of EVOO and consequently the analytical methods for their characterization and quantification are of current interest. Traditionally their determination has been conducted using a colorimetric assay based on the reaction of Folin…
