Abstract
Large-scale suspect and non-targeted screening approaches based on high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) are today available for chemical profiling and holistic characterisation of biological samples. These advanced techniques allow the simultaneous detection of a large number of chemical features, including markers of human chemical exposure. Such markers are of interest for biomonitoring, environmental health studies and support to risk assessment. Furthermore, these screening approaches have the promising capability to detect chemicals of emerging concern (CECs), document the extent of human chemical exposure, generate new research hypotheses and provide early warning support to policy. Whilst of growing importance in the environment and food safety areas, respectively, CECs remain poorly addressed in the field of human biomonitoring. This shortfall is due to several scientific and methodological reasons, including a global lack of harmonisation. In this context, the main aim of this paper is to present an overview of the basic principles, promises and challenges of suspect and non-targeted screening approaches applied to human samples as this specific field introduce major specificities compared to other fields. Focused on liquid chromatography coupled to HRMS-based data acquisition methods, this overview addresses all steps of these new analytical workflows. Beyond this general picture, the main activities carried out on this topic within the particular framework of the European Human Biomonitoring initiative (project HBM4EU, 2017-2021) are described, with an emphasis on harmonisation measures.

Analysis of silver-associated proteins in pathogen via combination of native SDS-PAGE, fluorescent staining, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. J Chromatogr A 2019; 1607:460393. [PMID: 31376982 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2019.460393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2019] [Revised: 07/16/2019] [Accepted: 07/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Characterization of silver-associated proteins is important to elucidate underlined mechanisms of silver-containing materials against microbes. Gel electrophoresis based methods are the most popular and basic strategy for the analysis of biomolecules, i.e., proteins and nucleic acids. It solely provides molecular weights of analytes. Extending the method from molecular weight to elemental composition is highly desired when investigating metal-containing molecules. Herein, a gel electrophoresis based method combining native sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (native SDS-PAGE), fluorescent staining, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) strategy was developed for separation and detection of silver-associated proteins. Two home-made silver-labeled proteins, carbonic anhydrase and ovalbumin, were used for validation of the strategy performance. Silver-associated proteins in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus treated with silver nanoparticles were further characterized by this method. Some well-known and new proteins were identified to associate to silver in both P. aeruginosa and S. aureus, demonstrating the feasibility of the developed strategy. In conclusion, the current study provides a convenient method for readily identification of silver-associated proteins in biological samples.

Abstract
AbstractBackground:Assessment of the anticoagulant activity of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) is justified in special clinical situations. Here, we evaluated two independent extraction methods and developed a multi-analyte ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass (UHPLC-MS/MS) method for the quantification of apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban and rivaroxaban in human plasma.Methods:Routine extraction based on protein precipitation with acetonitrile and subsequent centrifugation was compared to sample clean-up using commercial paramagnetic micro-particles and subsequent magnetic depletion. Stable isotope-labeled analogs of all analytes were employed as internal standards. The method was validated according to international guidelines in terms of linearity, precision, trueness, sensitivity, recovery and matrix effects. The performances of both extraction methods were assessed in clinical samples obtained from patients treated with either apixaban or rivaroxaban. Additionally, we report on a patient with nonadherence to rivaroxaban treatment and fulminant pulmonary embolism.Results:The method was linear from 2 to 500 ng/mL for all analytes, and quantification of DOACs was established within a run time of 2.0 min. Based on MS/MS analyte responses, relative matrix effects were better controlled for dabigatran after extraction with paramagnetic micro-particles. Internal standards fully compensated for recovery and matrix effects in all assays, yielding equivalent results for both methods. Apixaban and rivaroxaban concentrations determined in clinical samples after extraction with both methods were in good agreement (RConclusions:A rapid and accurate multi-component UHPLC-MS/MS method for the quantification of four DOACs in human plasma was established. Paramagnetic micro-particles appear suitable for clean-up of plasma samples for LC-MS/MS-based therapeutic drug monitoring purposes.

Abstract
To extend the scope of application of fucoxanthin, a marine carotenoid, whole milk (WM) and skimmed milk (SM) were fortified with fucoxanthin isolated from the microalga Phaeodactylum tricornutum to a final 8 μg/mL milk solution concentration. Using these liquid systems, a fucoxanthin analysis method implementing extraction and HPLC-DAD was developed and validated by accuracy, precision, system suitability, and robustness tests. The current method demonstrated good linearity over the range of 0.125-100 μg/mL fucoxanthin with R(2) = 1.0000, and all validation data supported its adequacy for use in fucoxanthin analysis from milk solution. To investigate fucoxanthin stability during milk production and distribution, fucoxanthin content was examined during storage, pasteurization, and drying processes under various conditions. Fucoxanthin in milk solutions showed better stabilizing effect in 1 month of storage period. Degradation rate constant (k) on fucoxanthin during this storage period suggested that fucoxanthin stability might be negatively correlated with decrease of temperature and increase of protein content such as casein and whey protein in milk matrix. In a comparison between SM and WM, fucoxantin in SM always showed better stability than that in WM during storage and three kinds of drying processes. This effect was also deduced to relate with protein content. In the pasteurization step, >91% of fucoxanthin was retained after three pasteurization processes even though the above trend was not found. This study demonstrated for the first time that milk products can be used as a basic food matrix for fucoxanthin application and that protein content in milk is an important factor for fucoxanthin stability.

Abstract
Clinical laboratory medicine has seen the introduction and evolution of liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry in routine clinical laboratories over the last 10–15 years. There still exists a wide diversity of assays from very esoteric and highly specialist manual assays to more simplified kit-based assays. The technology is not static as manufacturers are continually making improvements. Mass spectrometry is now commonly used in several areas of diagnostics including therapeutic drug monitoring, toxicology, endocrinology, paediatrics and microbiology. Some of the most high throughput analyses or common analytes include vitamin D, immunosuppressant monitoring, androgen measurement and newborn screening. It also offers flexibility for the measurement of analytes in a variety of different matrices which would prove difficult with immunoassays. Unlike immunoassays or high-pressure liquid chromatography assays using ultraviolet or fluorescence detection, mass spectrometry offers better specificity and reduced interferences if attention is paid to potential isobaric compounds. Furthermore, multiplexing, which enables multiple analytes to be measured with the same volume of serum is advantageous, and the requirement for large sample volumes is decreasing as instrument sensitivity increases. There are many emerging applications in the literature. Using mass spectrometry to identify novel isoforms or modified peptides is possible as is quantification of proteins and peptides, with or without protein digests. Future developments by the manufacturers may also include mechanisms to improve the throughput of samples and strategies to decrease the level of skill required by the operators.

Abstract
This paper describes a sample preparation method that complements a previously published liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assay for acetaminophen and eight structurally-related compounds in human serum (C. Bylda, R. Thiele, U. Kobold, D.A. Volmer. Drug Test. Anal. 2014, 6, 451). The analytes (acetaminophen [APAP] + metabolites acetaminophen-glucuronide [APG], -cysteine [APC], -mercapturate [APM] and -cysteine [APC], structurally similar analogues phenacetin and p-phenetidine, as well as tricyclic antidepressants imipramine and amitryptiline) were extracted from serum using magnetized hyper-crosslinked polystyrene particles. The sample preparation protocol was developed by means of a design of experiments (DoE) statistical approach. Using three representative compounds from the analyte panel with different polarities (high, medium, and low), two screening designs were used to identify factors that exhibited significant impact on recovery of the analytes. These parameters were then optimized to permit extraction of the complete target panel exhibiting a broad range of chemical polarities. Liquid chromatographic separations were achieved by gradient elution using a pentafluorphenyl column with subsequent detection by electrospray ionization-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The method was linear over the range 0.1-100 µg/mL for APAP, APG, p-phenetidine and phenacetin, 0.03-50 µg/mL for APS, and 0.01-10 µg/mL for APM, APC, imipramine and amitriptyline, with R(2) > 0.99. The assay exhibited good precision with CVs ranging from 2 to 9% for all analytes; the accuracy was assessed by comparing two LC-MS/MS methods using a set of 68 patient samples.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry has become increasingly popular in clinical laboratories over the last decade due to the inherent sensitivity and specificity of the technology. Nevertheless, full automation and hence application in routine laboratories is still hampered by laborious and difficult-to-automate sample pre-treatment protocols. Functionalized paramagnetic micro-particles could simplify sample pre-treatment and ease automation. We evaluated the applicability of a pre-commercial, straightforward paramagnetic micro-particle based kit for the lysis and deproteination of whole blood for the LC-MS/MS analysis of everolimus and compared the performance to our routine protein precipitation method. DESIGN AND METHODS Samples were prepared for LC-MS/MS everolimus analysis on an Acquity UPLC chromatographic system coupled to a TQD mass spectrometer (both Waters Ltd.) using a pre-commercial MagSi-TDMprep kit and a routine protein precipitation respectively. Both pre-treatment methods were validated for imprecision, accuracy, linearity, limit of quantification, matrix effect, recovery and process efficiency. A method comparison (n=63) between both pre-treatment methods was performed. RESULTS Imprecision and bias were within pre-defined criteria (15%) for both pre-treatment methods. Both methods were linear from 1.2 to 14.8μg/L with a limit of quantification of 0.6μg/L. Process efficiency was on average 65% for protein precipitation pre-treatment and was substantially higher for the MagSi-TDMprep method (85%). A Passing-Bablok regression showed no significant difference between the two pre-treatment methods. CONCLUSION For everolimus in whole blood, the MagSi-TDMprep sample pre-treatment was applicable and comparable to protein precipitation for LC-MS/MS with the possible advantage of easier automation.

Abstract
Sample preparation is an important step of any biomedical analysis. Development and validation of fast, reproducible and reliable sample preparation methods would be very helpful in increasing productivity. Except for a few direct injection methods, almost all biological samples should at least be diluted before any analysis. Sometimes dilution is not possible because of the low concentration of the target analyte in the sample, and alternative pretreatments, such as filtration, precipitation and sample clean up using different extraction methods, are needed. This review focuses on the recent achievements in the pretreatment of biological samples and investigates them in six categories (i.e., dilution, filtration/dialysis, precipitation, extraction [solid-phase extraction, liquid–liquid extraction], novel techniques [turbulent flow chromatography, immunoaffinity method, electromembrane extraction] and combined methods). Each category will be discussed according to its productivity rate and suitability for routine analysis, and the discussed methods will be compared according to the mentioned indices.
