چکیده

A highly sensitive paired ion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (PIESI-MS) approach was developed for the trace determination of sphingolipids. Apart from their structure role, specific sphingolipids can play a role in cell signaling and as disease markers. With the optimal pairing reagents, detection limits ranged from low femtomole to picomole levels for 14 selected sphingolipids. This improved the detection sensitivity of ESI-MS for many of these analytes up to ~4000 times.

Determination of Trace Level of cAMP in Locusta Migratoria Manilensis Meyen by HPLC with Fluorescence Derivation

A sensitive and rapid method was developed for the determination of cAMP in Locusta migratoria manilensis Meyen by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. The cAMP was derivatized using chloroacetaldehyde and TBAS buffer/methanol was used as the mobile phase. A detection quantification of 40 fmol/ml could be achieved when using fluorescence detection. An HPLC-MS meth...

Isocyanates can cause occupational asthma. By using available HPLC-UVF methods, isocyanates can be quantified only at levels above 1% of the Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL). Once sensitized, workers can react to concentrations below these limits of detection (LOD) making these methods insufficiently sensitive to adequately evaluate trace amounts of isocyanates present in air or in materials a...
