Although vitamin K detection methods have been established using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS), some limitations remain.

We developed an LC–MS/MS method with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization to quantify and validate its performance according to Clinical Laboratory and Standard Institution standards (C62-Ed2). Serums from 50 healthy individuals and cerebrospinal fluid from 15 patients were collected for clinical application. Sample preparation involved lipase incubation, protein precipitation with ethanol, and liquid–liquid extraction with hexane/ethyl; optimization was performed for sample preparation and LC separation. Linearity was 50–10 000 pg/mL for VK1, MK-4, and MK-7. The total coefficient of variation (%) for VK1, MK-4, and MK-7 ranged from 8.5% to 10.4%, 8.0% to 10.4%, and 7.0% to 11.1%, respectively.

This review focuses on the application of proteomic analysis in the identification of pathological conditions in a hospital setting, with a particular focus on the analysis of protein biomarkers. In particular, the main purpose of the review is to highlight the challenges associated with the identification of specific disease-causing proteins, given their complex nature and the variety of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) they can undergo. PTMs, such as phosphorylation and glycosylation, play critical roles in protein function but can also lead to diseases if dysregulated. Proteomics plays an important role especially in various medical fields ranging from cardiology, internal medicine to hemato-oncology emphasizing the interdisciplinary nature of this field. Traditional methods such as electrophoretic or immunochemical methods have been mainstay in protein detection; however, these techniques are limited in terms of specificity and sensitivity. Examples include the diagnosis of multiple myeloma and the detection of its specific protein or amyloidosis, which relies heavily on these conventional methods, which sometimes lead to false positives or inadequate disease monitoring. Mass spectrometry in this respect emerges as a superior alternative, providing high sensitivity and specificity in the detection and quantification of specific protein sequences. This technique is particularly beneficial for monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD) in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma where traditional methods fall short. Furthermore mass spectrometry can provide precise typing of amyloid proteins, which is crucial for the appropriate treatment of amyloidosis.

In this paper, we present a way to easily produce negative ions from anionic peptide adducts, utilising collision-induced dissociation (CID)-mediated elimination. Using two different mass spectrometers, we have generated series of adducts of three cyclic and one linear peptide with various anions. They were then isolated and subjected to CID with a range of collision energies. The deprotonation percentage was then calculated from the resultant spectrum, and compared between the spectrometers, as well as with an external reference—proton affinity values. The susceptibility to deprotonate by detaching a HX moiety is proportional to the proton affinity of the X<sup>−</sup> species. Also, the linear peptide deprotonated more readily than the cyclic ones. On the other hand, lack of amino or acidic groups resulted in higher collision voltage (CV) necessary for the formation of deprotonated species. Moreover, the exact propensity for neutral loss depends on the ion temperature, which differs between mass spectrometers. We have developed a facile method for generating peptide anions for MS analysis of cyclic peptides, which works even if the peptide in question does not have easily ionisable groups.

When spot size reduces, downhole fractionation (DHF) increases, increasing the DHF discrepancy between zircon grains and the primary reference zircon standard and resulting in inaccurate results. With MC-ICPMS's high sensitivity and multi-collector capabilities, this work attempts to accurately determine age with spatial resolutions below 20 μm. Three well-characterized zircon standards (91500, GJ-1, and Plešovice) were tested at spot sizes of 35, 20, 15, and 10 μm.
