M analysis

MS is an attractive tool to analyze DCLs, owing to its high resolution and the fact that it provides the masses of the library members, which is often essential in order to identify the molecular stractures. A disadvantage of the technique is that its use for quantification is not straightforward.

The iaterpretation of forensic toxicology (18) results is often challenging. Courts frequently ask if an amount of dmg detected ia a specimen could cause a specific type of behavior, ie, would someone be under the influence of a dmg at a specific concentration, would a particular dmg concentration cause diminished capacity, or was the dmg the cause of death In a random employee dmg testing case, a worker screened positive for opiates by EMIT and gc/ms analysis of the urine specimen showed low levels of morphine. Although one possibiUty was that the iadividual was a heroia user, a review of foods eaten ia the prior 24 hours suggested a more innocent cause a poppy-seed bagel.

Obtaining of data concerning the chemical composition of water is critical significance for monitoring water reservoirs and forecasting the quality of drinking water from different water supply sources. A dry residue is commonly used with the methods AAS, ICP-AES, ICP-MS (analysis of liquid) widely applied for determination of water composition. So it is vital to create a standard sample of the composition of dry residue of ultra-fresh Lake Baikal water, its development launched since 1992 at the Institute of Geochemistry SB RAS. 

SELECTION OF CONDITIONS OF SOIL MICROWAVE DECOMPOSITION FOR ICP-MS ANALYSIS... 

Steven Carr (SmithKline Beecham) has used microbore columns to desalt proteins prior to ES-MS (32). The pore diameter of PolyHEA used (usually 200 A) was selected so that all proteins of interest would elute at Vo with 50 mM formic acid. Only the Vo peak was allowed to flow into the ES-MS nebularizer the rest of the SEC effluent (including the salts) was diverted to waste by opening a microdumper valve between the column and the nebularizer. The properties of the mobile phase were quite compatible with ES-MS analysis.

Isotope peaks can be very informative in GC/MS analysis. Generally for interpretation, one focuses on the monoisotopic peak. The monoisotopic... 

Once the internal standard has been added to the unknown matrix and is thoroughly mixed, the solution can be concentrated, if necessary, for GCl MS analysis. Chemical derivatization is also performed if needed. Normally, samples and reference standards are evaporated to dryness and then redissolved in a carefully measured quantity of solvent. For trace samples, se-... 

By treating groups of mice with 2,4, 5-trichIorobiphenyI and [35S]cysteine or [35S]methionine the formation of 4-[35S]methylsulfonyl-2,4, 5-trichlorobiphenyl (194) was indicated and shown to deposit in the lungs. GC-MS analysis confirmed the presence of 194 as the minor component60.

The fundamental piece of information on which the subsequent spectral analysis is based is the total-ion-current (TIC) trace. Such a trace, obtained from the LC-MS analysis of a pesticide mixture, is shown in Figure 3.13, together with the UV trace recorded simultaneously. For the purposes of this discussion, the HPLC and MS conditions used to generate the data, other than the fact that electrospray ionization was used, are irrelevant.
