Upon screening identification of Stanozolol, GC/HRMS confirmation of the suspicious sample is done by reanalysis of the urine specimen, where a specific immunoaffinity purification procedure is used to selectively isolate the long term excreted metabolites of Stanozolol. By meeting the specific identification criteria for more than one metabolite of the same parent compound, additional evidence could be obtained in the decision making process in doping control.

The procedure for the determination of carbamate pesticides in soil was optimized. The following factors affecting the final results were investigated: extracting solvent, extraction procedure, extract purification procedure, and soil type. Triple extraction with acetone and purification of the extract on a two-stage purification column containing an activated carbon-silica gel 1+1 mixture were found optimal. The extracts after treatment were analyzed by RP-HPLC with UV detection. The method developed allows carbamate pesticides in soil to be determined at concentrations in excess of 30 μg kg-1.

Exogenous Substances

Bile acids (BAs) are hydroxylated steroids derived from cholesterol that act at the intestinal level to facilitate the absorption of several nutrients and also play a role as signaling molecules. In the liver of various vertebrates, the trafficking of BAs is mediated by bile acid-binding proteins (L-BABPs). The ability to host hydrophobic or amphipathic molecules makes BABPs suitable for the distribution of a variety of physiological and exogenous substances. Thus, BABPs have been proposed as drug carriers, and more recently, they have also been employed to develop innovative nanotechnology and biotechnology systems. Here, we report an efficient protocol for the production, purification, and crystallization of chicken liver BABP (cL-BABP). By means of target expression as His6-tag cL-BABP, we obtained a large amount of pure and homogeneous proteins through a simple purification procedure relying on affinity chromatography. The recombinant cL-BABP showed a raised propensity to crystallize, allowing us to obtain its structure at high resolution and, in turn, assess the structural conservation of the recombinant cL-BABP with respect to the liver-extracted protein. The results support the use of recombinant cL-BABP for the development of drug carriers, nanotechnologies, and innovative synthetic photoswitch systems.

Abstract Chalcone synthase was isolated from both anthers of Tulipa cv. “Apeldoorn” and petals of Cosmos sulphureus Cav. After certain prepurification steps, the enzymes were further purified using gel chromatography on Sephadex G-200 followed by repeated hydroxylapatite absorption chromatography. Both the enzymes showed the same chromatographic properties. After gel chromatography as well as after the first hydroxylapatite fractionation, the reaction products appeared as flavanones. However, after the second hydroxylapatite step, production of chalcones was observed. Like the enzyme from tulip anthers, the synthase from Cosmos petals produced the correspondingly substituted chalcones when p-coumaroyl-CoA, caffeoyl-CoA and feruloyl-CoA, respectively, were used as substractes. In both the cases, the ratios of the different chalcones produced were found to be about the same. The appearance of chalcone synthesis in this in vitro assay is caused by the complete elimination of chalcone isomerase in the purification procedure. The importance of the isomerase for flavonoid biosynthesis, particularly in plant systems which are accumulating chalcones, is discussed.

Abstract A gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric (GC/MS) method was developed to confirm the presence of leucomalachite green (LMG), a metabolite of the triphenylmethane dye malachite green (MG), in catfish tissue. Residues were isolated according to a previously described liquid chromatographic (LC)A/IS spectrometric analysis of MG and LMG in fish. In our isolation procedure, analytes are extracted from tissue with acetonitrile–buffer, partitioned into CH2CI2, and applied to neutral alumina and propylsulfonic acid solid-phase extraction cartridges. Before GC/MS analysis, extracts prepared for the LC determinative method are eluted from a cyano solid-phase extraction cartridge, extracted into organic solvent, and concentrated for GC/MS analysis. Selected ion monitoring was performed by using 5 diagnostic ions (m/z 330,329,253,210, and 165) of LMG. The method was validated by confirming LMG in tissue fortified with mixtures of MG and LMG (5 and 10 ng/g each) and in tissue from fish that had been exposed to low levels of MG.
