Konstruera Sec-nanoESI källan utifrån en kommersiell nanoESI källa, är jonisering effektiviteten högre än med en ESI källa30. Dessutom jonisering effektiviteten förbättras ytterligare i en sluten kammare, som det isolerar processen från omgivande bakgrunden luften och vid samma tid underlättar blandning mellan gas urvalet och spray plymen. Genom att använda en Sec-nanoESI, behöver mindre parametrar optimeras jämfört med en ESI källa, vilket gör det lättare för installation, ans?...

Med snabb utveckling av moderna analystekniker, har hundratals flyktiga organiska föreningar (VOC) identifierats i human utandningsluften1. Dessa VOC resultera mestadels från alveolär luft (~ 350 mL för en frisk vuxen) och anatomiska dödvolymen air (~ 150 mL)2, som påverkas av kroppens ämnesomsättning3,4,5,6,7 ,8 och miljöföroreningar9, respektive. Som ett resultat, om identifierade, är dessa flyktiga organiska föreningar lovande att användas som biomarkörer för sjukdomsdiagnos och miljömässig exponering på ett icke-invasivt sätt.
Även om gaskromatografi-masspektrometri (GC-MS) är den mest använda tekniken för kvalitativ och kvantitativ analys av utandad VOC2, direkt MS-tekniker, som har utvecklats för realtid andedräkt analys, har fördelarna med hög tid upplösning och enkel provberedning före. Direkt MS-tekniker, såsom proton överföring reaktion MS (PTR-MS)10, valt ion flöde tube MS (SIFT-MS)11, sekundära elektrospray jonisering MS (SESI-MS)12,13 (också benämn så utvinningsindustrin elektrospray jonisering MS, EESI-MS14,15), spåra atmosfärisk gas analyzer (TAGA)16 och plasma jonisering MS (PI-MS)17 har undersökts i senaste åren.
Bland alla de direkta MS teknikerna är SESI välkänd som en universell mjuk jonisering teknik19,20,21. och källan är lätt att anpassas och kopplat till olika typer av masspektrometrar, t.ex., tidpunkten för flygning masspektrometer8,15, ion trap mass spectrometer14 och orbitrap masspektrometer12 ,18. Hittills SESI-MS har framgångsrikt använts för att diagnostisera sjukdomar i andningsorganen22, mäta dygnsrytmen3,6,23, farmakokinetik7,8, och avslöjande metaboliska vägar4, etc. Nyligen, en kommersiell SESI källa har blivit tillgänglig.
I denna studie en lättköpt och kompakt sekundära nanoelectrospray jonisering källa (Sec-nanoESI) inrättades och kopplad till en högupplöst masspektrometer. Realtids mätningar av utandade flyktiga organiska föreningar i andetag presenterades.

real-time breath analysis by using secondary nanoelectrospray ionization coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry

Utandade flyktiga organiska föreningar (VOC) har väckt stort intresse, eftersom de kan fungera som biomarkörer för sjukdomsdiagnos och miljömässig exponering på ett icke-invasivt sätt. I detta arbete presenterar vi ett protokoll för att karakterisera de utandade flyktiga organiska föreningar i realtid med hjälp av sekundära nanoelectrospray jonisering kopplat till hög upplösning masspektrometri (SEK-nanoESI-HRMS). Hemmagjord Sec-nanoESI källan inrättades lätt baserat på en kommersiell nanoESI källa. Hundratals toppar observerades i de bakgrunden-subtraheras masspektra av utandningsluften, och massa noggrannhet värdena är -4,0-13,5 ppm och -20,3-1,3 ppm i de positiva och negativa jonen upptäckt lägen, respektive. Topparna tilldelades med korrekt elementärt sammansättning enligt korrekt massa och isotopiska mönster. Mindre än 30 s används för en utandning mätning, och det tar ca 7 min för sex replikerade mätningar.

Figur 3 visar andedräkt fingeravtryck till massa mellan m/z 50-750 registrerats under både positiva och negativa jonen upptäckt lägen. 291 toppar (peak intensitet > 5.0x104) och 173 toppar (peak intensitet > 3.0x104) har observerats i bakgrunden-subtraheras andedräkt fingeravtryck i positiva och negativa jonen upptäckt lägen, respektive. För att identifiera toppar i masspektrum, hänvisas till tidigare publikationer för...
