The extensive disinfection operations and daily activities within these hospitals led to the release of significant amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, the composition and concentration characteristics of VOCs around these hospitals remain unclear. This study employed a self-developed mobile proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (M-PTR-MS) system to conduct high spatiotemporal resolution mobile monitoring of VOCs in these hospitals in Wuhan from February 29 to March 15, 2020. The study compared the temporal and spatial variations in VOC across Wuhan, focusing on the frequency and concentration of VOC increases downwind of temporary hospital (Leishenshan Hospital), designated hospitals (Wuhan Xiehe Hospital, Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital), and shelter hospitals (Wuhan Keting Shelter Hospital, Hongshan Stadium Shelter Hospital). The results indicated that during the 14 days of effective mobile monitoring, the average concentration of total VOC (TVOC) in the first seven days was 13.39 % higher than in the latter seven days. Spatially, the average concentration of TVOC in the industrial areas north of the Yangtze River was 8.89 % higher than those in the non-industrial areas south of the river. Leishenshan Hospital exhibited the most diverse VOC composition and sources, with VOCs primarily originating from the fermentation and direct incineration of medical, waste within the hospital grounds and disinfectants. Downwind of the designated hospitals, VOCs related to industrial-source, disinfectants and waste were detected. Ethanol was detected downwind of all these hospitals. Waste generated by hospitals was a significant source of VOCs downwind of both temporary and designated hospitals.

In this work, we focused on tackling the identification of the β-monosaccharide head group, as either glucose or galactose, in various cerebroside isomers as well as demonstrating how our methodology could be applied to unknowns found in a porcine extract. To achieve this, we performed collision-induced dissociation prior to cyclic ion mobility separations to generate monosaccharide fragment ions from the starting cerebroside precursor ions. With this pre-cIMS CID approach, we observed that the cIMS separations of the fragment ions were diagnostic of the β-monosaccharide head group composition (i.e., glucose versus galactose), regardless of the ceramide tail length. From there, we demonstrated an example of how this methodology could also be applied to cerebrosides found in a porcine extract and a framework for how this approach could be added to existing workflows in developing collision cross section databases.

Furthermore, their relative gas-phase Zn(II) affinities were measured using competitive threshold collision-induced dissociation (TCID) of the [ZBP+Zn(II)+NTA]<sup>−</sup> complex, by modeling the two competing dissociation channels: [ZBP+Zn(II)]<sup>−</sup> + NTA or [Zn(II)+NTA]<sup>−</sup> + ZBP, where NTA is nitrilotriacetic acid.

Despite the effects phosphorylation has on protein function, the impact phosphorylation has on the structure of proteins is not well understood. To determine how phosphorylation affects the structure of proteins, top-down mass spectrometry (TD-MS) and ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) were performed on various phosphorylated proteins and their dephosphorylated proteoforms. TD-MS with collision- and electron-based fragmentation techniques was utilized to locate phosphorylation sites on the intrinsically disordered amyloid proteins β-casein and α-synuclein. TD-MS also provided evidence that alkaline phosphatase dephosphorylates β-casein from the N-terminus to the C-terminus. Furthermore, IM-MS of common phosphorylated proteins such as β-casein, α-casein, ovalbumin, and phosvitin indicates that phosphorylation promotes compaction of protein structure in denaturing as well as native conditions. Increases in abundance of more compact conformers are also observed when the disease related amyloid protein α-synuclein is phosphorylated at serine 129. We interpret the increased abundance of more compact conformers when proteins are phosphorylated as evidence that salt bridges form between negatively charged phosphates and positively charged residues, which alters protein structure.

Predictions for the proton affinities for <strong>1</strong>–<strong>7</strong> were also obtained through isodesmic calculations at the B3LYP/6–311++G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-31+G(d) level of theory. As with a previous study on the proton affinities of ProXxx dipeptides with aliphatic side chains (Cardwell et al., <em>Int. J. Mass Spectrom.</em> <strong>2025</strong>, <em>507</em>, 117352) the agreement between theory and experiment is mixed. For the two dipeptides with sulfur in the side chain we find excellent agreement between the EKM and calculated proton affinities. For the three dipeptides with hydroxyl groups in the side chain, the experimental values are between 7.2 and 13.2 kJ/mol larger than the computed proton affinities. Additional single point energy calculations on <strong>3</strong>–<strong>5</strong> with B3LYP/6–311++G(2df,2p) basis sets give predicted proton affinities that are somewhat smaller than those predicted with the B3LYP/6–311++G9d,p) basis set. MP2/6-311z++G(2df,2p) single point energy calculations on <strong>3 and 4</strong> give calculated proton affinities within 1 kJ/mol of the B3LYP/6–311++G(d,p) values. It appears that the EKM values for <strong>3</strong>–<strong>5</strong> are systematically too high, possible o to the extrapolation required to obtain the isothermal point in the EKM workup due to the large protonation entropies of the dipeptides. This result is also seen to a lesser extent for ProPhe and ProTrp in which the EKM proton affinities are 5–6 kJ/mol larger than the calculated values. As with the aliphatic ProXxx dipeptides from our previous study, we recommend using the calculated proton affinities for <strong>1</strong>–<strong>7</strong> with the experimental proton affinities as upper limits.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":338,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mass Spectrometry","volume":"513 ","pages":"Article 117445"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143852037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Orthogonal methods are designed to provide additional information, increasing confidence in characterization. Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) and mass spectrometry (MS) provide two dimensions where MS separates based on mass-to-charge and IMS separates based on size, shape, and charge. Here, we report new gas phase behavior of sodiated cyclodextrins revealed by cyclic IMS coupled to tandem MS. Gas phase ion activation prior to IMS separation on sodiated α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrins generates isomeric species with different mobilities. Following gas phase mobility separation, fragmentation studies on the activation-generated isomers showed a greater degree of fragmentation than was observed for the original sodiated cyclodextrins. These findings suggest that sodiated cyclodextrins undergo structural changes upon activation, with the newly formed isomers significantly contributing to the observed fragmentation. To our knowledge this is the first report on separation of isomeric ions generated upon collisional activation of sodiated cyclodextrins in the gas phase. The results of this study can be used for better understanding of cyclodextrin fragmentation, suggesting that fragmentation occurs after an initial isomerization, possibly to a ring-opened form. Additionally, these findings can be used to develop more specific methodologies for cyclodextrin characterization.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":338,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mass Spectrometry","volume":"513 ","pages":"Article 117444"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143863381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
