Abstract
Phosphoproteins maintain the normal metabolic activity of the organisms. Direct phosphopeptides detection is difficult to be realized by mass spectroscopy (MS) due to the low ionization efficiency, low abundance of phosphopeptides and interferences of complicated biological fluids. In the present work, a magnetic composite material was prepared by combining polyethyleneimine (PEI) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) focusing on phosphopeptides enrichment. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry analysis, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and UV–vis spectrometry measurement results confirmed the successful synthesis of Fe3O4@PEI@FITC material. FITC was facilely connected with PEI, and the two motifs endowed the efficient enrichment capacity of phosphopeptides by simple regulation of pH. The Fe3O4@PEI@FITC material was applied to the detection of phosphopeptides from real samples, implying that it can serve as an applicable platform for phosphoproteomics analysis.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chromatography A provides a forum for the publication of original research and critical reviews on all aspects of fundamental and applied separation science. The scope of the journal includes chromatography and related techniques, electromigration techniques (e.g. electrophoresis, electrochromatography), hyphenated and other multi-dimensional techniques, sample preparation, and detection methods such as mass spectrometry. Contributions consist mainly of research papers dealing with the theory of separation methods, instrumental developments and analytical and preparative applications of general interest.
