Pyrolysis mass spectrometry and its applications in biotechnology.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pyrolysis mass spectrometry is a rapid and high-resolution method for the analysis of otherwise non-volatile material and has been widely applied for discriminating between closely related microbial strains. Recent advances in statistical and neural network methods based on supervised learning have now permitted exploitation of pyrolysis mass spectrometry in the quantitative analysis of many diverse samples of biotechnological interest; the technique may thus be regarded as an 'anything-sensor'.

Rapid and quantitative analysis of recombinant protein expression using pyrolysis mass spectrometry and artificial neural networks: application to mammalian cytochrome b5 in Escherichia coli.
Recombinant Escherichia coli clones encoding between 0 and 6 copies of the mammalian cytochrome b5 gene were subjected to pyrolysis mass spectrometry (PyMS). To deconvolute the pyrolysis mass spectra so as to obtain quantitative information on the amount of cytochrome b5 produced fully-interconnected feedforward artificial neural networks (ANNs) were studied. It was found that the combination o...
متن کاملPyrolysis GC/MS and IR spectroscopy in chitin analysis of molluscan shells.
Chitin is an insoluble component in the shells of several molluscan species. It is thought to play important roles, in biomineralization and shell structure. To date, however, reports are scarce and sometimes contradictory, and suffer from methodological problems. Only in a single cephalopod species has the chitin been identified as beta-chitin. We present data on chitin occurrence in 22 specie...
متن کاملDerivatization in mass spectrometry --7. On-line derivatisation/degradation.
The review describes on-line derivatization/degradation methods employed in mass spectrometry to solve some structural and analytical problems. Advantages and applications of various positions of reaction systems connected mainly to a mass spectrometer or a gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer are considered. Among these are reaction systems connected directly to the mass spectrometer (reaction ...

Natural polyisoprene is a biopolymer consisting of isoprene units (C(5)H(8)) that is used commercially in household, medical, and industrial materials. For the management of natural polyisoprene production, the selection of high-yield polyisoprene-producing trees, and an understanding of polyisoprene biosynthesis, a high-throughput and highly sensitive screening method for the quantification of...
متن کاملPyrolysis-GC/MS fingerprinting of environmental samples
This paper describes four recent applications of analytical pyrolysis in environmental science and engineering. In all applications, samples were analyzed in order to provide information about the origin of organic matter or changes to an organic matrix. In the first application, pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and pyrolysis-GC/flame ionization detection (FID) were used t...
