To date, nearly 200 genes have been identified as responsible for these disorders, with approximately half implicated in N-glycosylation defects. Diagnosis of CDG is primarily achieved through genetic analysis and the identification of glycan abnormalities, referred to as molecular phenotypes. With the increasing use of whole exome and genome sequencing in the investigation of diseases with unknown etiology, the number of cases suspected of CDG is increasing, highlighting the necessity for glycan analysis. Molecular phenotyping in CDG typically targets glycoproteins, with transferrin and apolipoprotein CIII being key representatives of N- and mucin-type O-glycosylation, respectively. Mass spectrometry (MS) provides rapid analysis and yields moderately detailed information, establishing it as a first-line molecular diagnostic tool that complements genetic analysis. Structural anomalies detected by MS can be classified into distinct patterns, which may indicate specific defects within the glycosylation pathway. In cases of CDG types that lack clear molecular phenotypes, characteristic metabolites can often be identified and quantified by MS, further aiding in the diagnostic process. Molecular diagnosis of CDG using MS can be performed with a standard mass spectrometer and a dried blood spot on filter paper, enabling its application in population-based mass screening.","PeriodicalId":18243,"journal":{"name":"Mass spectrometry","volume":"14 1","pages":"A0169"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11808201/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143391379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we investigated the formation mechanism of the hydride-eliminated molecule [M-H]+ from 4-substituted-1-(methoxymethyl)benzene under a positive FAB ionization condition. The mass spectra of 4-methoxy-1-(methoxymethyl)benzene (1), 4-methoxy-1-(methoxymethyl-d 2-)benzene (1-d 2), and 4-methoxy-1-(methoxymethyl-d 3)benzene (1-d 3) were measured under the positive FAB conditions. [M-H]+ was observed for 1 and 1-d 3, and [M-D]+ for 1-d 2, indicating that the site of hydride elimination was the methylene of the 1-(methoxymethyl) moiety. Since [M-H]+ was hardly observed under the conditions of positive electron ionization and positive chemical ionization in the gas phase, the hydride elimination is a reaction specific to positive FAB ionization. To examine the contribution of the 4-substituent to the hydride elimination reaction, the mass spectra of (methoxymethyl)benzene (2) and 4-nitro-1-(methoxymethyl)benzene (3) were measured using the positive FAB. The ordering of the relative peak intensity of [M-H]+ for [M+H]+ in the FAB mass spectra was 1 > 2 > 3, and the results suggest that the electron-donating power of the substituents is an important factor in the formation of [M-H]+.","PeriodicalId":18243,"journal":{"name":"Mass spectrometry","volume":"14 1","pages":"A0171"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11911718/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143649734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pesticides are chemically heterogeneous, covering a wide range of LogK o/w values. Therefore, developing sensitive methods to detect a broad spectrum of hazardous chemicals in aqueous matrices is challenging. Gas and liquid chromatography/high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/HPLC-MS) are established tools but typically require pre-concentration steps. Stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) is a green, simple, automatable, and HPLC-compatible technique. This study presents a multi-residue method for determining 131 pesticides in mineral water using SBSE followed by HPLC-tandem MS. The selected pesticides, from various chemical classes, were evaluated in fortified ultra-pure and mineral water samples. The method demonstrated excellent sensitivity, with lower limits of quantification ranging from 20 to 50 ng/L for all analytes, enabling detection at trace levels. Selectivity was high (SEL% <20%), and reproducibility was confirmed with RSD% values below 20%. Intra- and interday precision tests revealed RSD% values from 0.23% to 19.81%. Trueness was validated with BIAS% below 20% at all concentrations. Uncertainty values were acceptable, with U% ranging from 1.44% to 49.24%. This SBSE-HPLC-tandem MS method is a robust, efficient, and reliable alternative to traditional approaches for routine monitoring of pesticide residues in drinking water, with quantification limits below regulatory requirements. It offers a suitable tool for public health applications, ensuring reliable pesticide detection in complex water matrices.","PeriodicalId":18243,"journal":{"name":"Mass spectrometry","volume":"14 1","pages":"A0172"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11955823/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143753437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, polymer materials are susceptible to degradation from factors such as light, oxygen, and heat. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the structural changes that occur during degradation and the extent of these changes. This report investigates the structural alterations in PET films resulting from ultraviolet (UV) irradiation utilizing pyrolysis-gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (Py-GC-TOFMS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS). Using the reactive Py-GC-TOFMS, we estimated the composition of the pyrolysis products resulting from UV degradation through electron ionization, soft ionization, and exact mass measurements. Additionally, artificial intelligence (AI)-based structure analysis was performed to evaluate these compounds' structures. Notably, most degradation products were not found in the National Institute of Standards and Technology database, underscoring the effectiveness of our approach. Using MALDI-TOFMS analysis, we determine the changes in the end groups before and after UV irradiation. This analysis confirmed the generation of a series of carboxylic acid end groups as a result of degradation, a polymer series not detected by reactive pyrolysis GC-MS. We also explored degradation in the depth direction, demonstrating that degradation progresses gradually to depths of several micrometers. Our findings highlight the importance of employing mass spectrometry techniques for a comprehensive analysis of polymer degradation.","PeriodicalId":18243,"journal":{"name":"Mass spectrometry","volume":"14 1","pages":"A0168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11744444/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143007999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The APCD spectrum showed peaks of M+· and the characteristic two fragment ions that were the same as the field ionization mass spectra of butyrophenone as reported by Chait et al. and Beckey et al. The formation of the molecular and fragment ions strongly indicated that high-electric field tunnel ionization (HEFTI) occurs by the HEF strength exceeding 108 V/m at the tip of the corona needle in APCD.

The method is designed to study changes in levels for α-T and its oxidative products in plant cells during photosynthesis, aiming to observe the light response curves. α-T oxidation is a non-enzymatic self-defense mechanism in plant cells. Unlike enzyme-involved reactions, it cannot be stopped, so the oxidation continues in crude extracts even after extraction. Therefore, a real-time in-situ method is essential for tracking the light response curves. To optimize the selective reaction monitoring method, the reaction mixture of α-T and singlet oxygen (1O2), generated by rose Bengal under light illumination, was used as the source of oxidative products. The relative abundance changes in α-tocopherylquinone and 8a-hydroperoxy tocopherone in Pisum sativum L. (Pea) leaves under excessive light illumination have been preliminarily analyzed as part of the light response curve study. The method archives a throughput of 10-15 minutes for analyzing duplicate leaf samples. This process includes cutting off the leaf, sectioning it, placing the sample in a frozen SFE vessel, and conducting SFE/SFC analysis. Consequently, the average throughput is approximately 5-7 minutes per sample.","PeriodicalId":18243,"journal":{"name":"Mass spectrometry","volume":"13 1","pages":"A0153"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11474449/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142469172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
