Accelerator mass spectrometry as a bioanalytical tool for nutritional research.
Accelerator Mass Spectrometry is a mass spectrometric method of detecting long-lived radioisotopes without regard to their decay products or half-life. The technique is normally applied to geochronology, but is also available for bioanalytical tracing. AMS detects isotope concentrations to parts per quadrillion, quantifying labeled biochemicals to attomole levels in milligram-sized samples. Its...
متن کاملImproving tritium exposure reconstructions using accelerator mass spectrometry.
Direct measurement of tritium atoms by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) enables rapid low-activity tritium measurements from milligram-sized samples and permits greater ease of sample collection, faster throughput, and increased spatial and/or temporal resolution. Because existing methodologies for quantifying tritium have some significant limitations, the development of tritium AMS has allo...
متن کاملDevelopment and Validation of Bioanalytical Method for Simultaneous Estimation of Nebivolol Enantiomers in Human Plasma Using Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry
The present study describes a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous determination of S-RRR and R-SSS nebivolol (nebivolol enantiomers) in human plasma using solid phase extraction technique. Method of both S-RRR and R-SSS nebivolol (nebivolol enantiomers) has been developed and validated using racemic nebivolol D4 as an internal standard. Analytes...
متن کاملDetailed structural elucidation of polyesters and acrylates using Fourier transform mass spectrometry
The detailed structural characterization of complex polymer architectures, like copolymers and polymer mixtures, by mass spectrometry presents a challenge. Even though soft ionization analyses revolutionized the characterization of large molecules and provided a means for determining the polymer's molecular weight distribution, polydispersity, and end groups, full microstructure elucidation and...
متن کاملUse of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry for the investigation of radical cation chain reactions in solution: detection of transient radical cations.
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) coupled to a microreactor is an excellent tool for the investigation of reactions in solution. Here, we report the first results of our investigations into preparatively interesting electron-transfer-initiated chain reactions in solution which proceed via radical cations as reactive intermediates. The tris(p-bromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimo...
