Mass Spectrometry System

A new approach was recently introduced to improve the structure elucidation power of tandem mass spectrometry simulating the MS3of ion trap mass spectrometry system overcoming the different drawbacks of the latter. The fact that collision induced dissociation in the triple quadrupole mass spectrometer system provides richer fragment ions compared to those achieved in the ion trap mass spectrometer system utilizing resonance excitation. Moreover, extracting comprehensive spectra in the ion trap needs multistage fragmentation, whereas similar fragment ions may be acquired from one stage product ion scan using the triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. The new strategy was proven to enhance the qualitative performance of tandem mass spectrometry for structural elucidation of different chemical entities. In the current study we are endeavoring to prove our hypothesis of the efficiency of the new pseudo-MS3technique via its comparison with the MS3mode of ion trap mass spectrometry system. Ten pharmacologically and synthetically important (E)-3-(dimethylamino)-1-arylprop-2-en-1-ones (enaminones4a–j) were chosen as model compounds for this study. This strategy permitted rigorous identification of all fragment ions using triple quadrupole mass spectrometer with sufficient specificity. It can be used to elucidate structures of different unknown components. The data presented in this paper provide clear evidence that our new pseudo-MS3may simulate the MS3of ion trap spectrometry system.

Abstract Two methods for the determination of tetrodotoxin(TTX) in marine biota have been developed and validated using ultra-performance LC coupled to triple quadrupole MS. The direct analysis of TTX is completed in one method, while the other method detects the dehydration product of TTX after reaction with base. The methods were validated in a single-laboratory trial and used to test Paphies australis (pipi) samples collected from Whangapoua, New Zealand during April 2011. Pa. australis is a commonly eaten species of bivalve that was found to contain TTX at levels up to 0.80 mg/kg in this study. The methods exhibited recoveries ranging from 94 to 120%, and the within laboratory reproducibility ranged from 6 to 27% for Pleurobranchaea maculata (grey-side gilled sea slug) andbivalve matrixes. Use of the method using a dehydration step showed no evidence of TTX analogs in any ofthe samples.
