    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: The utility of deuterium-labeled 3-nitrobenzyl alcohol (DNBA) as a fast atom bombardment (FAB) matrix for establishing the number of exchangeable hydrogens present in a molecule is illustrated by the analysis of five selected antitumor agents. A method for the simple preparation of this labeled matrix is described. The use of DNBA may be of value for samples which provide no FAB spectra when deuterium-labeled glycerol is used as a matrix.

    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: The details of a general multiblock partial least squares (PLS) algorithm based on one originally presented by Wold et al. have been developed and are completely presented. The algorithm can handle most types of relationships between the blocks and constitutes a significant advancement in the modeling of complex chemical systems. The algorithm has been programmed in FORTRAN and has been tested on two simulated multiblock problems, a three-block and a five-block problem. The algorithm combines the score vectors for all blocks predicting a particular block into a new block. This new block is used to predict the predicted block in a manner analogous to the two-block PLS. In a similar manner if one block predicts more than one other block, the score vectors of all predicted blocks are combined to form a new block, which is then predicted by the predictor block as in the two-block PLS. Blocks that both predict and are predicted are treated in such a way that both of these roles can be taken into account when calculating interblock relationships. The results of numerical simulations indicate that the computer program is operating properly and that the multiblock PLS produces meaningful and consistent results.

    Notes: The effect of peak shifts on the performance of a Kalman filter multicomponent analysis algorithm has been investigated. A series of Gaussian test systems were employed to characterize the concentration estimation errors and the morphology of the on-line residuals (the innovations sequence). Both forward and reverse filters were used in the generation of the innovations sequences. It was found that the difference between the forward and reverse innovations sequences gave an accurate indication of the direction and magnitude of the peak shift. A series of overlapped two-component systems were also investigated. Again, a correlation between the difference innovations and the degree of the response shift was observed. The behavior of the Kalman filter in fitting the shifted fluorescence emission spectrum of benzo[a]pyrene was also examined. The response for benzo[a]pyrene in cyclohexane solution was compared to that obtained on the surface surface of a reversed phase thin layer chromatography plate. A red shift of 4 nm was detected for the surface spectrum by observing the difference innovations sequence. This approach holds promise for correction of response shifts in multicomponent systems.

    Notes: A scaffold for detailed understanding of the concept ‘dimensionality’ in data analysis is furnished by a systematic classification of higher-order data array configurations. Three major types of problem formulation in multivariate data analysis can be characterized for relevant data classes: 1data description (intra-class data structure modelling of inter-object and inter-variable relationships)2classification (inter-class discrimination)3correlation, regression (inter-variable relationships).The relationship between these three categories of data analytical problem formulation and the fundamental data array classification is exposed. These relations are augmented to include the general case of data arrays of order R, and R-way data analysis with the use of bilinear projections is presented. Based upon this, some possible directions for the future development of data analysis may be imagined.

    Notes: A computer program (FEA) is presented for processing historical laboratory data. It performs on a list of sample entries stored in a laboratory information management system. Using an algorithm which is based on fuzzy set theory, FEA classifies the entries into a limited number of clusters called sample types. The classification is fully user-defined. The program transforms the historical data into a representation which is more suitable for studying the performance of the laboratory or which can be used as preparation for a simulation project.

    Notes: Values of the peak potential, the peak current function and the peak potential difference are extracted from simulated cyclic voltammograms of a quasi-reversible electron transfer reaction. Variations of the feature values are described by empirical functions of the model parameters α (transfer coefficient) and ψ′ (dimensionless form of the heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant ks) using multiple linear regression. These functions are used to determine the system parameters α and ks from test data sets of feature values. The predictive power of the features is discussed. It is shown that several features can be used simultaneously in the analysis. Also, α, ks, the formal potential E0 and the diffusion coefficient D can be estimated simultaneously. Experimental data from the metal-centered one-electron reduction of cerium (IV) bis(octaethylporphyrinate), Ce(OEP)2, are analyzed using the technique, and values of the system parameters for this electrochemical reaction are determined.

    Notes: By means of Monte Carlo simulations a comparison has been made between ordinary least squares regression and robust regression. The robust regression procedure is based on the Huber estimate and is computed by means of the iteratively reweighted least squares algorithm. The performance of both procedures has been evaluated for estimation of the parameters of a calibration function and for determination of the concentration of unknown samples. The influence of the distributional characteristics skewness and kurtosis has been studied, and the number of measurements used for constructing the calibration curve has also been taken into account. Under certain conditions robust regression offers an advantage over least squares regression.

    Notes: A non-parametric method for supervised pattern recognition is presented. The method is of the class modelling type, meaning that a classification rule is developed for each class, using the dissimilarities between the objects of the class. The dissimilarities between the objects within a class are related to the distances between all pairs of training objects. As distance metric, a measure is proposed that takes the correlation between the interval-scale variables into account, and that moreover can be used for mixed types of variables. The classification rule is based on the construction of a boundary in the measurement space. For the determination of the class boundary, several strategies are proposed and compared.The performance of the technique is evaluated on the basis of several data sets. Comparison with the class modelling technique UNEQ shows its usefulness for practical application.

    Notes: Care is required for multicomponent analysis if misleading results are to be avoided. The problem of ill-conditioned calibration matrices is of primary concern. This type of numerical instability is represented as spectral overlap of calibration spectra. Depending on the degree of spectral overlap, the sample concentration estimates can be severely affected. A practical statistical procedure is discussed which tests for the presence of spectral overlap among the pure-component spectra and simultaneously assesses the degree that concentration estimates may be degraded. Guidelines are developed to ascertain how much departure from spectral orthogonality is acceptable.

    Notes: Calibrations to predict crude protein (CP) and in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) in dried grass silage from reflectance data collected at 19 wavelengths on an InfraAlyzer 400R have been developed using stepwise multiple linear (SML) and principal component (PC) regression techniques. A direct comparison of the efficacy of each multivariate technique in this applications has been possible by using identical calibration development and evaluation sample sets. The effect of two data transformation steps prior to PC regression was also investigated. PC regression of raw reflectance data yielded no significant improvement in the standard errors of prediction (SEP) for CP and IVDMD over those obtained by SMLR, viz. 0·61 vs 0·63 and 2·9 vs 3·0 respectively. Computation time for development and evaluation of the PC regression equation was less than for selection of the best SMLR equation, and PCR equations may be more robust. Data transformation to reduce granularity effects prior to PCR did not produce any improvement in predictive accuracy for either IVDMD or CP.

    Notes: Images can contain chemical information and many chemical methods can generate image data. For an efficient extraction of chemical data from images, data analysis techniques are necessary. It is a great advantage to be able to work on multivariate images. Many imaging techniques allow the extraction of chemical information. Inorganic analytical chemistry seems to have the longest tradition here, but organic chemistry and biochemistry may soon be catching up. Also large data arrays from non-imaging techniques can be combined with image analysis in a useful way, provided certain conditions are fulfilled.

    Notes: We consider the problem of resolving the total luminescence spectra of two-component mixtures. Non-negativity of the constituent spectra is commonly used as a criterion to accomplish this resolution, but its application seldom leads to unique answers. Sometimes, the condition must be relaxed because no solution satisfying non-negativity exists. In these cases judgments must be made concerning which parts of the spectra will be allowed to go negative and by how much.The wavelength component vectorgramn (WCV) is presented here as a tool for assisting the experimenter in making these judgments. Even when non-negative resolutions exist, it may happen that resolutions with slight negative elements will more closely match the spectra of the pure constituents. The WCV can also be used as a tool for detecting these cases. The methodology is illustrated with real data from a two-component mixture.

    Notes: Concentration estimates of components present in a sample mixture can be obtained using matrix mathematics. In the past, the condition number of the calibration matrix has been used to give an amplification factor by which uncertainties in data can work through to errors in the concentration estimates. This paper explores an additional interpretation of condition numbers with regards to significant figures and rounding errors. A procedure is suggested which will always give the most accurate concentration estimates provided the calibration matrix is not too ill-conditioned. Condition numbers have also been used by analytical chemists to discuss the error bounds for concentration estimates. Unfortunately, only one representative error bound can be approximated for all the components. This paper will show how to compute bounds for individual concentration estimates obtained as solutions to a system of m equations and n unknowns. The procedure is appropriate when calibration data and sample responses are inaccurate.

    Notes: Evolving factor analysis is used to estimate the concentration profiles and spectra of Bi3+ and the bismuth chloride complexes BiC12+ through BiCl63- formed by injection of bismuth perchlorate into a flowing stream of 1·0 mol 1-1 HCl. The estimated spectra compare favorably with previously published spectra of the complexes.

    Notes: Classification and regression techniques are among the most used tools by chemometricians. With classification, the two classic methods are discriminant analysis and SIMCA. In this paper we discuss the connection between these two methods and introduce two new ones of the same family: DASCO (discriminant analysis with shrunken covariances) and RDA (regularized discriminant analysis). We demonstrate on both simulated and real data sets that their performance is superior to the old favorites. This is especially true in small-sample/high-dimension settings typical in chemistry.

    Notes: Given a set of test criteria that determine a quality specification, the question often arises whether any of the tests are redundant because of intercorrelations Simple selection of tests on the basis of partial correlations with the other tests is rejected on the basis that the random error in the data may be causing spurious correlations.One method is to use cross-validation to define the systematic principal components and examine the correlation structure in this reduced space. It is shown that the presence of principal components dominated by individual tests (‘variable specific’ PCs), which are indicated by cross-validation as being non-systematic, must be taken into account. Having defined the dimensionality, a variable reduction method based on Procrustes rotation selects subsets of tests that preserve the structure of the samples in multivariate space. This is an attractive proposition in the context of maintaining a quality control specification. It is also shown that the variable reduction technique can be used to aid the identification of the true dimensionality of the data space. This approach is applied to a number of routine tests carried out on aviation turbine fuel.

    Notes: An improved algorithm for the generalized rank annihilation method (GRAM) is presented. GRAM is a method for multicomponent calibration using two-dimensional instruments, such as GC-MS. In this paper an orthonormal base is first computed and used to project the calibration and unknown sample response matrices into a lower-dimensional subspace. The resulting generalized eigenproblem is then solved using the QZ algorithm. The result of these improvements is that GRAM is computationally more stable, particularly in the case where the calibration sample contains chemical constituents not present in the unknown sample and the unknown contains constituents not present in the calibration (the most general case).

    Notes: The paper presents a procedure to obtain response surfaces with non-designed data. The method is based on PLS modelling of the expanded X-matrix followed by transformation of the PLS loadings into polynomial coefficients and detection of the co-ordinates of the best response within the experimental domain. The results are presented both graphically and numerically. The procedure is validated on an optimization study of the yield of an organic reaction.

    Notes: An expert system is presented for automated time series analysis of laboratory sample input signals. The system, AUTOCORR, builds a model of the time series by identifying the processes that are present. These are an uncorrelated random process and, underlying this, possibly one or more of the following: a first-order autoregressive process, a trend and a periodic process. AUTOCORR has a knowledge base of 44 rules and 41 facts for this purpose. The employed shell, INFER, allows the use of algorithmic procedures. Elaborate tests with simulated signals show that AUTOCORR has a very low false positive score and is successful in describing time series for laboratory simulation models.

    Notes: A brief review of the literature on point estimators in linear calibration problems is undertaken. Supportive evidence for the relative merits of the classical and inverse regression models, drawn in general from the classical inferential and Bayesian approaches, is considered and the criteria for comparison of the estimators are discussed with respect to their suitability for certain classes of problems. the performance of the estimators is assessed with respect to determining the current value of ‘x’, the percentage concentration of administered drug levels in blood in this example. No single ‘best’ method of estimation appears to hold for all values of the unknown concentration when performance is assessed by criteria based on the mean square error (MSE). However, the inverse estimator would appear to be superior to the classical for those values of unknown X close to x̄.

    Notes: Ultrametric inter-object distances found by hierarchical clustering may be used to generate and appropriate constellation of points in a plane. A configuration of points which reproduce the ultrametric distances in a low-dimensional space as closely as possible can be found by Torgerson's method of multidimensional scaling. The resulting display supports the cognition of clusters very well, and for this purpose it seems to be superior to, for instance, the frequently applied principal components display. In certain situations dedrograms are expected to become simpler to interpret when such complementary ‘cluster display’ is also consulted. An example from analytical chemistry is presented.

    Notes: The ion-molecule reaction between six hexachlorobiphenyl positive molecular ions and ammonia in a triplequadrupole instrument to yield [M + NH3 - HCl]+. ions gives products whose abundances differ by at least an order of magnitude under uniform conditions. This reaction offers a way of distinguishing many isomers by a reaction that is different from the other demonstrated route, the loss of HCl from [M + O - Cl]- ions.

    Notes: Positive ion fast atom bombardment mass spectra of a series of biologically active peptides were obtained in order to ascertain conditions that contribute to an increase in fragment ion abundance of such peptides. The effect of derivatization, hydrophobic character and the presence of acid in the matrix on fragmentation of peptides were all investigated. It is shown that a substantial increase in fragment signal ion abundance is observed when mineral acid is present in the matrix, and is in accord with the gas-phase collision model proposed by Kebarle.

    Notes: A procedure is described for the quantitative determination of platelet activating factor (PAF) using stable isotope dilution and fast atom bombardment/tandem mass spectrometry. Low-energy collisional activation of the [M + H]+ ion of PAF yields a single daughter ion of m/z 184, characteristic of phosphocholine derivatives. For precise and accurate quantification the internal standard is (2H3)acetyl-hexadecyl PAF, which yields an analogous daughter ion of m/z 185. Quantitative analyses are based on limited mass-range parent ion scanning with transmission of daughters of m/z 184 and 185 during alternate scans; all scans are accumulated into a single data file to facilitate determination of the analyte/internal standard response ratio. Analysis of authentic hexadecyl PAF indicates a low-picogram detection limit. The method has been applied to the determination of PAF in preparations of human neutrophils stimulated by addition of a calcium ionophore. Concentrations of PAF of 7-17 ng/106 cells were observed, in keeping with earlier reports. The method has been validated by standard addition and dilution experiments. Comparison of data obtained by the new procedure and those obtained by a method involving gas chromatography/electron capture mass spectromery of dephosphorylated and derivatized PAF showed excellent agreement.
