It was therefore essential that there are analytical techniques to identify and quantify DSP toxins in shellfish. This new methodology could facilitate DSP monitoring and create a means of rapidly responding to incidents threatening public health. In the last years there were different analytical methods for DSP, such as mouse bioassay and LC-FLD. With the development of instrument, Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was substituted for other analytical methods with its good sensitivity and selectivity and without derivatization for the determination of DSP.

However, morphine tolerance is reversed with melanocortin receptor antagonists, and analgesic action is enhanced accordingly. However, these mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, following addition of morphine to Wistar rat spinal cord astrocytes, glutamate levels in the supematant significantly increased (P 〈 0.05). At 30-120 minutes following addition of intervention agent to spinal cord astrocytes, naloxone significantly increased glutamate release in morphine-tolerant model cells (P 〈 0.05), while melanocortin receptor antagonist HS014 decreased glutamate release (P 〈 0.05). Additional naloxone and HS014 to astrocytes significantly decreased glutamate release compared with additional naloxone alone (P 〈 0.01). Results from the present study demonstrated that glutamate release was increased in spinal cord astrocytes co-cultured with morphine. Naloxone increased glutamate release, and HS014 reduced glutamate release.展开更多

文摘Stereoisomeric hexoses are present in almost all biological organisms in the forms of aldoses and ketoses,with diverse physi-ological and pathophysiological functions.Accurate and simultaneous quantification is vital for understanding their functions individually.However,such analysis remains challenging owing to their highly similar behavior in chromatography and mass spectrometry.By combining the pre-column 3-nitrophenylhydrazine derivatization and ultrahigh performance liquid chroma-tography tandem mass spectrometry(UHPLC-MS/MS),here,we developed a method for simultaneous quantification of five important stereoisomeric hexoses including D-glucose,D-galactose,D-mannose,D-fructose and L-sorbose representing both aldoses and ketoses.The method achieved baseline-separation for all these five derivatized hexoses chromatographically and had high sensitivity(LOD,femtomole on column),excellent linearity(R2>0.995)and efficiency with stable-isotope dilution.With this method,we further quantified these hexoses in nine biological matrices including human biofluids(serum,urine and saliva),human cells,human and mouse feces,rat liver tissue,mung-bean seeds and peach pulp.The results provided quantitative data for these hexoses in multiple biological samples and showed significant concentration diversity for these hexoses in different biological samples,which demonstrated the applicability of the method for simultaneous quantification of these hexose phenotypes of biological systems.

文摘[Objectives] An ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was established for simultaneous determination of 26 antibiotics in the water around landfills. [Methods] After an HLB solid-phase extraction column was activated, and a water sample, which was adjusted with phosphoric acid to a pH of (2±0.5) and added with 500 mg of disodium EDTA, was loaded, and 5 ml of water and 20% methanol water was added for washing. Next, 10 ml of elution solution was added for elution, and the collected eluate was evaporated under reduced pressure at 40 ℃ to near dryness, and 1 ml of reconstitution solution was added to a constant volume. An ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 (100 mm×2.1 mm, 2.6 μm) chromatographic column was adopted for LC separation by gradient elution with 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution-acetonitrile as the mobile phase. For MS detection, the MRM mode was adopted for collection, and the positive and negative ion modes were switched for simultaneous determination, and the internal standard method was used for quantification. [Results] The correlation coefficient R2 was greater than 0.99 in the linear range of each target substance. The limits of detection ranged from 0.15 to 3.00 ng/L, and the limits of quantitation were between 0.80 and 10.00 ng/L, and the recoveries ranged from 77.9% to 104.85%. [Conclusions] The method has high sensitivity, good accuracy and strong practical value.
文摘A simple and sensitive method was developed for the simultaneous determination of four macrolides in pork using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).Homogenized sample was extracted with NaH2PO4 buffer and acetonitrile solution,and defatted with n-hexane.Further cleanup was performed on a Sep-Pakt C18 solid-phase extraction cartridge.The compounds were determined by LC-MS/MS operated in positive electrospray ionization mode.The limits of detection(LODs) were 0.5 μg/kg.The average recoveries at three spiked concentration levels of 1.0,5.0,10.0 μg/kg were in the range of 70%-110%,with the intra-day RSD of less than 12.9% and inter-day RSD of less than 13.4%.
文摘建立了分析测定水环境中十氯酮的液相色谱-串联质谱法。水样经液液萃取、净化后,采用 Eclipse plus C18柱(100 mm×2.1 mm,3.5μm)分离,乙腈和水为流动相进行梯度洗脱,在电喷雾负离子多反应监测模式下进行检测,同位素内标法定量。结果表明:采用液相色谱-质谱联用技术,证实了十氯酮在甲醇中以半缩醛的形式存在,而在丙酮/乙腈中以偕二醇的形式存在。由于十氯酮极性较强,在净化时难以洗脱,并且不耐酸,所以不能与其他有机氯农药一起分析。十氯酮在5~100μg / L 范围有良好的线性关系,相关系数 r2=0.999,检出限及定量限分别为0.70 ng / L 和2.8 ng / L;在5、40和100 ng / L 3个浓度添加水平的平均回收率为95.1%~98.9%,相对标准偏差为3.85%~4.72%。本方法具有良好的灵敏度、回收率和重现性,适用于水环境中十氯酮的测定。

文摘The pharmacokinetics of oxiracetam and its degraded substance(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1-pyrrolidine acetic acid,HOPAA)after oral and intravenous administration in rats were studied using an established UPLC-MS/MS method.Three groups of rats after an overnight fasted received 10 g/kg(n=6)oxiracetam suspensions orally,and 2 g/kg(n=6)normal or degraded oxiracetam injections intravenously via a caudal tail vein,respectively.Before the pharmacokinetic experiment,a simple safety evaluation testwas conducted on the degraded oxiracetam injections containing 16.16% HOPAA in mice.There was no mortality by a single intravenous dose of 2 g/kg of degraded oxiracetam injections within twoweeks,demonstrating that HOPAA was non-toxic in mice.Following intravenous administration of the normal injections,the plasma concentration-time curves of oxiracetam and HOPAA both showed a rapid elimination phase.The values of t_(1/2)were 3.1±1.5 h for oxiracetamand 0.8±0.2 h for HOPAA,andthemean residencetimes(MRT)were 1.2±0.1h and 0.8±0.1h,respectively.Oxiracetam and HOPAA after intravenous administration of the degraded oxiracetam injections presented elimination patterns similar to those observed in the normal injections.Oral pharmacokinetic results showed that the Tmax was less than 1.5 h for the two analytes,and both had a longer t_(1/2) and MRT than those of intravenous administration.Contents of HOPAA in three groupswere calculated based on AUC_(0-t) values of the two analytes.The quantitative change of HOPAA in vivo was also evaluated by comparing the plasma concentrations of HOPAA and oxiracetamat the same time for every group.Additionally,the values of absolute bioavailability of oxiracetam were about 8.0%and 7.4%calculated by the normal or degraded oxiracetam injections,whichwere far less than the value of 75%reported in literature,indicating the necessity of further study.

文摘Previous studies have confirmed that the number of glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive cells significantly increases during morphine tolerance. However, morphine tolerance is reversed with melanocortin receptor antagonists, and analgesic action is enhanced accordingly. However, these mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, following addition of morphine to Wistar rat spinal cord astrocytes, glutamate levels in the supematant significantly increased (P 〈 0.05). At 30-120 minutes following addition of intervention agent to spinal cord astrocytes, naloxone significantly increased glutamate release in morphine-tolerant model cells (P 〈 0.05), while melanocortin receptor antagonist HS014 decreased glutamate release (P 〈 0.05). Additional naloxone and HS014 to astrocytes significantly decreased glutamate release compared with additional naloxone alone (P 〈 0.01). Results from the present study demonstrated that glutamate release was increased in spinal cord astrocytes co-cultured with morphine. Naloxone increased glutamate release, and HS014 reduced glutamate release.
