<p>Derivatization is the process by which a compound is chemically changed, that has properties more amenable to a particular analytical method. Some samples analyzed by Gas-chromatography and Mass-spectrometry (GC-MS) require derivatization in order to make them suitable for analysis. Especially the compounds that have poor volatility, poor thermal stability, or that can be adsorbed in the injector will exhibit non-reproducible peak areas, heights, and shapes. Hence, this study focused on step-by-step visual demonstration of chemical derivatization of pharmaceutical samples prior to GC-MS analysis for their better elution and detection.</p>

Abstract With the aim of establishing a data simultaneous comparison, the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) statistical tool was applied to LiNi0.6Mn0.2Co0.2O2/graphite Li-ion cells electrolyte’s decomposition products detected by UHPLC-ESI-HRMS. Herein, we illustrate how the chemometric tool associated with mass spectrometry data can be relevant to provide information about the presence of unusual molecules. Indeed, pristine Triton X-100 surfactant molecules used in electrode elaboration process were detected after impregnation stage. However, as they chemically react and oxidize at a potential lower than 4.5V vs. Li/Li+, only surfactant derivatives and classical ageing molecules were observed, respectively, after storage and cycling stages at 55°C, leading to a triangle-type correlation circle. On the other hand, global schemes of LiPF6-based electrolyte degradation pathways were elaborated from a comparative study with literature to help interpret results in future electrolyte ageing studies.

Purpose. To investigate the effect of ocular hypertension-induced isomerization of aspartic acid in retinal proteins. Methods. Adult Wistar rats with ocular hypertension were used as an experimental model. D-β-aspartic acid-containing proteins were isolated by SDS-PAGE and western blot with an anti-D-β-aspartic acid antibody and identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. The concentration of ATP was measured by ELISA. Results. D-β-aspartic acid was expressed in a protein band at around 44.5 kDa at much higher quantities in the retinas of rats with ocular hypertension than in those of normotensive rats. The 44.5 kDa protein band was mainly composed of α-enolase, S-arrestin, and ATP synthase subunits α and β, in both the ocular hypertensive and normotensive retinas. Moreover, increasing intraocular pressure was correlated with increasing ATP concentrations in the retinas of rats. Conclusion. Ocular hypertension affected the expression of proteins containing D-β-aspartic acid, including ATP synthase subunits, and up-regulation of ATP in the retinas of rats.
