However, no validated analytical method has been reported for its standardization and quality control through the quantification of its major phytoconstituent, despite its importance for pharmaceutical applications. Therefore, a sensitive and validated method for its standardization is required. In this context, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry is one of the most suitable analytical techniques for this purpose. In this study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography-Q-Exactive-Orbitrap-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Exactive-Orbitrap-MS) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-TQ-MS/MS) were employed to identify the marker compound of Gmelina asiatica and subsequently quantify it using a validated method. UHPLC-Q-Exactive-Orbitrap-MS revealed 699 metabolites after applying filtration criteria. The marker compound was identified as verbascoside/isoverbascoside (m/z 623.165 [M − H]−) and subsequently distinguished by UHPLC-TQ-MS/MS using selected reaction monitoring (SRM) transitions and retention time in comparison with an authentic reference standard, confirming its identity as verbascoside. The developed UHPLC-TQ-MS/MS method was validated and demonstrated excellent selectivity, precision, accuracy, and linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9989) over the range of 0.5–100 µg L−1, with limits of detection and quantification of 0.005 and 0.016 µg L−1, respectively. The validated method was successfully applied to quantify verbascoside in Gmelina asiatica extract, yielding 48.18 ± 3.67 mg g−1 extract (4.82%, w/w). The relatively high abundance of verbascoside demonstrates its suitability as a marker compound for the standardization and quality control of Gmelina asiatica and supports its reported pharmacological activities. This study establishes a reliable and validated UHPLC-TQ-MS/MS method for verbascoside-based standardization of Gmelina asiatica.","PeriodicalId":63,"journal":{"name":"Analyst","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149027588","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}

The method combines micro-solid-phase extraction (μ-SPE) cleanup with a 2.5 min chromatographic run and MS³ detection for PPG1000-equivalent quantification in zebrafish tissues. We systematically compared three mass spectrometric acquisition modes: multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), MS³, and in-source collision-induced dissociation (CID).

Current diagnosis relies on blood culture followed by culture-based identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing, which remain the clinical gold standard but require prolonged turnaround times. Isothermal amplification technologies such as loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) offer a rapid, cost-effective, and accessible alternative for pathogen identification and antimicrobial resistance detection directly from positive blood cultures, particularly in resource-limited settings. However, their widespread implementation remains constrained by sample preparation requirements and limited multiplexing capabilities. To address these challenges, we developed ALADIM (Accessible and integrated LAMP Analysis for multiplex Detection of Infectious agents in Microfluidics), an integrated microfluidic platform combining bacterial DNA extraction, multiplex on-chip LAMP amplification, and instrument-free amplicon detection by lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). The complete workflow can be performed in less than two hours, compared with the 24-48 h typically required for conventional diagnostic methods. As a proof of concept, the system was designed to detect E. coli, the most frequently reported pathogen in bacteraemia, together with two clinically relevant antimicrobial resistance determinants, blaCTX-M-15 and blaOXA-48, as well as an internal positive control. The multiplex assay was first evaluated using 14 bacterial strains cultured in LB medium. Performance of the on-chip workflow was comparable to that of the reference method consisting of conventional tube-based LAMP followed by LFIA detection, achieving 100% sensitivity and >84% specificity for malF and blaOXA-48, and 68% sensitivity with 83% specificity for blaCTX-M-15. The complete ALADIM workflow was subsequently assessed using overnight positive blood cultures generated from 15 PCR-characterised strains, corresponding to 61 independent experiments encompassing sample preparation, DNA amplification, and LFIA readout. In this more challenging matrix, specificity remained above 77% for all targets. Sensitivity exceeded 94% for malF and blaOXA-48, whereas detection of blaCTX-M-15 showed lower sensitivity (56%). A comparable reduction in sensitivity was also observed with the reference in-tube method (>68%), underscoring the analytical challenges associated with direct analysis of blood culture-derived samples. Overall, this study demonstrates the feasibility of integrating sample preparation, multiplex nucleic acid amplification, microfluidic handling, and lateral-flow-based detection within a single user-friendly platform. While further optimization is required to improve performance in complex matrices, increase analytical sensitivity, and expand multiplexing capabilities, ALADIM provides a promising foundation for the development of accessible molecular diagnostics for bloodstream infect","PeriodicalId":63,"journal":{"name":"Analyst","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149013577","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}

Mass spectrometry requires expensive instrumentation and struggles with structural isomers. UV and fluorescence detection necessitate derivatization for compounds lacking chromophores, extending analysis time and potentially altering labile compounds or masking structural modifications. Raman spectroscopy offers fundamentally different detection principles that could address these challenges by directly probing molecular vibrations to provide structural information independent of UV absorption. However, the primary obstacle to LC-Raman implementation has been Raman spectroscopy's inherently weak scattering signal.  This study addresses these fundamental challenges through a simple yet effective approach using a newly developed system combining post-column spotting with solvent evaporation. By transforming dilute liquid samples into concentrated solid deposits, this method dramatically enhances Raman signals while simultaneously eliminating solvent interference. The approach was applied to comprehensive amino acid analysis, which is essential for evaluating complex biological matrices.  The LC-Raman system achieved remarkable sensitivity with signal-to-noise ratios above 10 at 20 ng injection level, demonstrating that solvent evaporation and solid-state concentration effectively overcome traditional sensitivity limitations. All 20 proteinogenic amino acids were detected without derivatization regardless of chromophore presence.  Beyond sensitivity improvements, the system provides direct structural identification through vibrational spectroscopy. Lysine and its post-translational modifications (Nε-acetyl-lysine and Nε,Nε,Nε-trimethyllysine) were clearly discriminated through diagnostic vibrational bands. This demonstrates a distinct advantage of the Raman-based approach: direct molecular identification through intrinsic vibrational fingerprints without requiring fragmentation or derivatization, providing complementary information to existing methods. Analysis of DMEM cell culture medium identified eight major amino acids, and multivariate curve resolution successfully extracted pure component spectra for co-eluting leucine, isoleucine, and glucose, adding a chemical dimension to chromatographic separation. Furthermore, phenylalanine and glutamine in the cell culture medium were determined via LC-Raman spectroscopy.  This study establishes LC-Raman spectroscopy as a powerful analytical tool that successfully addresses historical sensitivity limitations while preserving unique molecular identification capabilities. The approach's applicability extends beyond amino acids to any LC-amenable compounds with sufficient Raman activity, opening new possibilities for pharmaceutical, clinical, and biotechnology applications where structural specificity and label-free analysis are essential.","PeriodicalId":63,"journal":{"name":"Analyst","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149013578","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}

It is urgent to develop a simplified laboratory-based electrochemical screening workflow for trace 2-MIB quantification since the traditional detection techniques are time-consuming and require complex pretreatment procedures. This study developed an innovative molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor by using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), and a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to detect trace 2-MIB in water. The sensor enabled highly specific capture of 2-MIB relying on the distinctive recognition cavities of MIPs.

The sensor exhibited a good linear response toward 2-MIB in the range of 25–200 ng L−1 under optimal conditions with a regression equation of ΔI (μA) = 0.34C + 2.1 and a correlation coefficient R2 = 0.9972. The method detection limit for 2-MIB reached 1.6 ng L−1, providing a screening strategy for trace 2-MIB in environmental water samples. The MWCNTs@DMIPs/GCE sensor showed good selectivity, reproducibility, and stability with satisfactory recoveries of 2-MIB ranging from 92.1% to 100.4% in different water samples.

Many optical imaging modalities have been developed to generate chemical contrast based on intrinsic molecular signatures or highly specific labeling. Coherent Raman scattering (CRS) microscopy has emerged as a powerful label-free technique for imaging biomolecules or exogenous compounds in biological samples. Most CRS imaging studies have focused on extracting chemical distribution, composition, and abundance in samples, and work in these areas has been extensively reviewed. However, an important aspect of chemical processes—the dynamics of chemical changes over time—has received less emphasis in CRS microscopy. Many critical insights into chemical processes lie in the spatiotemporal evolution of molecular species in live samples. Such information can only be obtained through live-cell imaging, and more importantly, longitudinal imaging of the same sample over time. In this review, we focus on key parameters related to longitudinal live-cell CRS microscopy and major recent studies. We first discuss three primary factors that must be considered for longitudinal CRS imaging: limit of detection, chemical selectivity, and phototoxicity. Limit of detection and chemical selectivity determine what CRS can measure, whereas phototoxicity dictates whether longitudinal imaging can capture meaningful cellular chemical dynamics with minimal perturbation to biological functions. In these discussions, we also provide critical comparisons between CRS microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. We then review recent developments and achievements in longitudinal CRS microscopy. Finally, we provide perspectives on future directions and areas where longitudinal CRS microscopy can make contributions to advancing our understanding of biological processes.","PeriodicalId":63,"journal":{"name":"Analyst","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148980639","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}
