  • Portable Mass Spectrometry
    Food Analytical Methods https://doi.org/10.1007/s12161-019-01666-6 Potential of Recent Ambient Ionization Techniques for Future Food Contaminant Analysis Using (Trans)Portable Mass Spectrometry Marco H. Blokland1 & Arjen Gerssen1 & Paul W. Zoontjes1 & Janusz Pawliszyn2 & Michel W.F. Nielen1,3 Received: 3 June 2019 /Accepted: 31 October 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract In food analysis, a trend towards on-site testing of quality and safety parameters is emerging. So far, on-site testing has been mainly explored by miniaturized optical spectroscopy and ligand-binding assay approaches such as lateral flow immunoassays and biosensors. However, for the analysis of multiple parameters at regulatory levels, mass spectrometry (MS) is the method of choice in food testing laboratories. Thanks to recent developments in ambient ionization and upcoming miniaturization of mass analyzers, (trans)portable mass spectrometry may be added to the toolkit for on-site testing and eventually compete with multiplex immunoassays in mixture analysis. In this study, we preliminary evaluated a selection of recent ambient ionization techniques for their potential in simplified testing of selected food contaminants such as pesticides, veterinary drugs, and natural toxins, aiming for a minimum in sample preparation while maintaining acceptable sensitivity and robustness. Matrix-assisted inlet ionization (MAI), handheld desorption atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (DAPCI), transmission-mode direct analysis in real time (TM-DART), and coated blade spray (CBS) were coupled to both benchtop Orbitrap and compact quad- rupole single-stage mass analyzers, while CBS was also briefly studied on a benchtop triple-quadrupole MS. From the results, it can be concluded that for solid and liquid sample transmission configurations provide the highest sensitivity while upon addition ofastationaryphase,suchasinCBS,evenlowμg/L levels in urine samples can be achieved provided the additional selectivity of tandem mass spectrometry is exploited.

    1 1 Introduction of Mass Spectrometry and Ambient Ionization Techniques Yiyang Dong, Jiahui Liu, and Tianyang Guo College of Life Science & Technology, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, No. 15 Beisanhuan East Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, 100029, China 1.1 Evolution of Analytical Chemistry and Its Challenges in the Twenty-First Century The Chemical Revolution began in the eighteenth century, with the work of French chemist Antoine Lavoisier (1743–1794) representing a fundamental watershed that separated the “modern chemistry” era from the “protochemistry” era (Figure 1.1). However, analytical chemistry, a subdiscipline of chemistry, is an ancient science and its metrological tools, basic applications, and analytical processes can be dated back to early recorded history [1]. In chronological spans covering ancient times, the middle ages, the era of the nineteenth century, and the three chemical revolutionary periods, analytical chemistry has successfully evolved from the verge of the nineteenth century to modern and contemporary times, characterized by its versatile traits and unprecedented challenges in the twenty-first century. Historically, analytical chemistry can be termed as the mother of chemistry, as the nature and the composition of materials are always needed to be iden- tified first for specific utilizations subsequently; therefore, the development of analytical chemistry has always been ahead of general chemistry [2]. During pre-Hellenistic times when chemistry did not exist as a science, various ana- lytical processes, for example, qualitative touchstone method and quantitative fire-assay or cupellation scheme have been in existence as routine quality control measures for the purpose of noble goods authentication and anti-counterfeiting practices. Because of the unavailability of archeological clues for origin tracing, the chemical balance and the weights, as stated in the earliest documents ever found, was supposed to have been used only by the Gods [3].

  • The Accutof™-DART® 4G: the Ambient Ionization Toolbox™
    The AccuTOF™-DART® 4G: The Ambient Ionization Toolbox™ Introduction JEOL introduced the AccuTOF-DART in 2005 as the first commercially available ambient ionization mass spectrometer system. The atmospheric pressure ionization interface (API) for the AccuTOF system, originally designed as a simple, rugged and reliable LC/MS interface, became the ideal platform for developing the Direct Analysis in Real Time (DART) ion source. Because the DART ion source can be positioned directly in front of the AccuTOF sampling orifice without additional interface hardware, a variety of ambient ionization techniques are available to the AccuTOF-DART operator without removing the DART ion source. The third-generation AccuTOF-DART 4G system is an “ambient ionization toolbox” that allows the analyst to choose ionization methods that are best matched to the samples to be analyzed. DART The DART ion source can be operated on the AccuTOF-DART 4G in several different modes to provide complementary information about substances to be analyzed. Helium DART: moderately polar small molecules In positive-ion mode, helium DART[1] generally produces protonated molecules [M + H]+ for compounds with a basic site, a heteroatom, or a site of unsaturation. In negative-ion mode, helium DART produces deprotonated molecules [M – H]- for compounds such as carboxylic acids or phenols that have a labile proton. Samples are introduced directly into the DART gas stream. By heating the helium gas, DART can detect volatile and semi-volatile compounds. Compounds with a molecular weight below 1000 can generally be detected by helium DART. Some compounds with molecular weights in excess of 2000 can be detected if they are sufficiently volatile.

Hexagon Bio, 1505 Adams Drive, Suite A, Menlo Park, CA 94025 2. Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Illinois at Chicago, 833 S Wood St, Chicago IL, 60612 Abstract Over the last decade, methods in imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) have progressively improved and diversified toward a variety of applications in natural products research. Because IMS allows for the spatial mapping of the production and distribution of biologically active molecules in situ, it facilitates phenotype and organelle driven discovery efforts. As practitioners of IMS for natural products discovery, we find one of the most important aspects of these experiments is the sample preparation and compatibility with different ionization sources that are available to a given researcher. As such, we have focused this mini review to cover types of ionization sources that have been used in natural products discovery applications and provided concrete examples of use for natural products discovery while discussing the advantages and limitations of each method. We aim for this article to serve as a resource to guide the broader natural product community interested in IMS toward the application/method that would best serve their natural product discovery needs given the sample and analyte(s) of interest.

No singular approach is able to globally map all biomolecular classes simultaneously. This led to the development of many complementary multimodal imaging approaches to solve analytical problems: fusing multiple ion- ization techniques, imaging microscopy or spectroscopy, or local extractions into robust multimodal imaging methods. However, each fusion typically requires the melding of analytical information from multiple commercial platforms, and the tandem utilization of multiple commercial or third- party software platforms—even in some cases requiring computer coding.

The reasons for this are not fully understood and it is clear further development is required to realise the flexibility and power of this ionisation method and geometry. Here we report the build of a new AP- TM-MALDI-MSI ion source with plasma ionisation enhancement. This novel ion source is used to analyse a selection of increasingly complex systems from molecular standards to murine brain tissue sections. Significant enhancement of detected ion intensity is observed in both positive and negative ion mode in all systems, with up to 2000 fold increases observed for a range of tissue endogenous species.

  • Desorption Electrospray Ionisation
    Desorption Electrospray Ionization in Combination with Liquid Chromatography John Jeff Hardy* Department Of Chemical Sciences, City University of New York, New York *Corresponding author: John Jeff Hardy, Department of Chemical Sciences, City University of New York; E- Mail: [email protected] Received: January 2, 2021; Accepted: January 19, 2021; Published: January 30, 2021 Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Desorption Electrospray Ionization A Fluid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS) strategy utilizing Desorption Electrospray Ionization (DESI) as a flexible interface has been set up, which permits a wide scope of elution stream rates, online derivatization by means of receptive DESI, and further blend with electrochemistry. LC/MS is a scientific method that joins the actual partition ability of LC with the mass investigation force of MS [1]. In light of its unmatched ability in blend investigation, the meaning of LC/MS is difficult to exaggerate and the coupling of LC with MS was acknowledged by utilizing different ionization techniques like Substance Ionization (CI), Thermospray Ionization (TSP), Environmental Pressing Factor Compound Ionization (APCI) and overwhelmingly Electrospray Ionization (ESI) [2]. A new forward leap in the field of MS is the coming of surrounding mass spectrometry, for example, Desorption Electrospray Ionization (DESI) and Direct Examination Continuously (DART) which furnishes direct ionization of analytes with practically zero example planning. As of late, the coupling of LC to DART-MS has been accounted for, which showed that DART is viable with eluents containing phosphate cradles at high elution stream rates. Be that as it may, the blend of LC with MS utilizing DESI has not been acknowledged up until this point, in light of the fact that conventional DESI manages the examination of strong examples on surfaces.
