[PMID: 38067608 PMCID: PMC10708075 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28237879] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and flavor characteristics of Rosa roxburghii Tratt. (RR) and Rosa sterilis (RS) were analyzed using headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). The flavor network was constructed by combining relative odor activity values (ROAVs), and the signature differential flavor components were screened using orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and random forest (RF). The results showed that 61 VOCs were detected in both RR and RS: 48 in RR, and 26 in RS. There were six key flavor components (ROAVs ≥ 1) in RR, namely nonanal, ethyl butanoate, ethyl hexanoate, (3Z)-3-hexen-1-yl acetate, ethyl caprylate, and styrene, among which ethyl butanoate had the highest contribution, whereas there were eight key flavor components (ROAVs ≥ 1) in RS, namely 2-nonanol, (E)-2-hexenal, nonanal, methyl salicylate, β-ocimene, caryophyllene, α-ionone, and styrene, among which nonanal contributed the most to RS. The flavor of RR is primarily fruity, sweet, green banana, and waxy, while the flavor of RS is primarily sweet and floral. In addition, OPLS-DA and RF suggested that (E)-2-hexenal, ethyl caprylate, β-ocimene, and ethyl butanoate could be the signature differential flavor components for distinguishing between RR and RS. In this study, the differences in VOCs between RR and RS were analyzed to provide a basis for further development and utilization.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2023:10.1007/s00216-023-04539-4. [PMID: 36651975 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-023-04539-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
To systematically study the influence of host-guest interactions on the analytical performance of direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS), the interactions between cyclodextrins (CDs) and different Sudan dyes were investigated. The results showed that the host-guest interaction between CDs and Sudan dyes did not affect qualitative analysis of the target compounds, but led to a lower signal intensity for Sudan dyes, thus affecting quantitative analysis of the target compounds. The stronger the host-guest interaction, the weaker the signal intensity of target compound on DART-MS. The results also show that both in solution and in solid-phase microextraction (SPME), the addition of organic solvents can weaken the host-guest interaction between CDs and Sudan dyes, thus improving the signal intensity in DART-MS. In SPME, adding organic solvents has a certain practical value and can improve the efficiency of Sudan dye analysis. This study suggests that appropriate sample pretreatment is needed to weaken noncovalent interactions prior to DART-MS analysis to obtain more accurate quantitative results. The data provide some insight into the effects of other noncovalent interactions on the efficiency of DART-MS as an analytical tool, as well as the potential to study intermolecular interactions with DART-MS.

Tens of new methods have been developed since the introduction of the first plasma-based AMS technique direct analysis in real-time. This review first provides a comprehensive overview of the established plasma-based AMS techniques from their ion source configurations, mechanisms, and developments. Then, the progress of the representative applications in various scientific fields in the past 4 years (January 2017 to January 2021) has been summarized. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and propose the future directions of plasma-based AMS from our perspective.

Abstract
Green analytical chemistry (GAC) represents a rapidly growing research field that aims at developing novel analytical approaches with minimal consumption of hazardous reagents and solvents. The current study reports on a GAC methodology exploiting the unique physicochemical properties of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs), a supposedly environmentally friendly class of solvents. Based on a temperature-mediated strategy, the NADESs were manipulated to undergo multiple phase transitions for favorable functionality and performance. As proof-of-concept demonstrations, both hydrophobic and hydrophilic NADESs were prepared for the extraction and analysis of eight phthalate esters in aqueous samples (food simulants) and three aflatoxins in oily samples (edible oils), respectively. NADES-based dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) was employed to achieve high-efficiency sample pretreatment. Afterward, the NADESs were transformed from liquids into solids by tuning the peripheral temperature for a convenient phase separation from the sample matrices. The solidified NADES extracts were melted and vaporized at elevated temperatures by transmission-mode direct analysis in real time (DART) for further quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (Q-Orbitrap HRMS) analysis. The developed protocol was validated, achieving good repeatability with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of less than 9% and satisfactory sensitivity with limits of detection (LODs) and quantitation (LOQs) ranging from 0.1 to 0.8 and 0.2 to 2.0 μg/kg, respectively. The greenness of the analytical methodology was assessed with the calculated scores of 0.66 and 0.57 for the hydrophobic and hydrophilic NADES-based protocols, respectively. The method was applied to marketed samples, highlighting the great potential for green chemical analysis.

Abstract
The spatial heterogeneity of environmental systems makes sampling at multiple locations crucial to provide complete and representative information. The on-site application of an extraction technique simplifies the sampling logistics, increasing sample integrity during transportation and storage. This article presents a portable, simple, and low-cost device capable of performing the simultaneous on-site extraction of several environmental water samples. The device consists of a small electric motor integrated into the plastic cap of a conventional glass bottle and operated with a portable battery. The electric motor provides stirring to a novel magnetic sorptive phase based on the deposition of hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) particles over a magnetic tape. The use of open technology makes the device globally affordable. In this first approach, the isolation and preconcentration of atrazine and simazine have been selected as proof of concept. Using an internal standard made unnecessary the adjustment of the ionic strength before the extraction, thus simplifying the analytical procedure. Under the optimum conditions and using direct infusion mass spectrometry as the instrumental technique, detection limits as low as 15 ng/L were obtained. The precision calculated at three different levels was better than 8.3%. The accuracy, calculated with spiked samples, indicates the applicability of the approach for environmental water analysis.

Abstract
In this work, a metal–organic framework MIL-68(In)–NH2 incorporated high internal phase emulsion polymeric monolith (MIL-68(In)–NH2/polyHIPE) was prepared and applied as a solid phase extraction adsorbent for the extraction and detection of trace triazine herbicides in environmental water samples by coupling with HPLC-UV detection. The fabricated material showed good adsorption for simazine, prometryn, and prometon in water samples because of π–π interactions and hydrogen bonding interactions. Under optimal conditions, the maximum adsorption capacity of simazine, prometon and prometryn was 800 μg g−1, 800 μg g−1 and 6.01 mg g−1, respectively. The linearities were 10–800 ng mL−1 for simazine, prometon and prometryn. The limits of detection were 31–97 ng L−1, and the recoveries were 85.6–118.2% at four spiked levels with relative standard deviations lower than 5.0%. The method has a high sensitivity for the determination of three triazine herbicides in environmental water samples. MIL-68(In)–NH2 incorporated high internal phase emulsion polymeric monoliths were fabricated and applied to extract and determine triazine herbicide residues in environmental water samples.![]()

Abstract
RATIONALE Polyamide (PA) is the generic name of polymers synthesized by linking monomers via amide bonds, and various types of PAs with different monomer compositions are known. Distinguishing PA polymers is useful in directing monomer residual testing, product testing, and reverse engineering, but is analytically challenging and cumbersome. To simplify this, we explored the applicability of direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) for screening PA polymers. METHODS A DART ion source coupled to a quadrupole Orbitrap (high-resolution (HR) mass spectrometer) was employed for this study. Ten types of PA polymers and four retail samples were evaluated. The DART-HRMS data for these samples, as well as the DART-MS/MS (MS2 ) data for PA6 and PA66, were obtained, and their repeatability was assessed across days/calibrations, operators, and equipments. RESULTS Ions corresponding to the cyclic or linear monomers and oligomers of each PA polymer were detected in each DART-HR mass spectrum. Although similar DART-HR mass spectra were obtained for PA6, PA66, and PA6/PA66 (polymer blends of PA6 and PA66), their DART tandem mass spectra were completely different. The analysis was repeatable, and nearly identical DART tandem mass spectra were obtained on different days, by different operators, and with different equipment. This technique was successfully applied to commercially available samples. CONCLUSIONS Ten types of PA polymers were distinguished using DART-HRMS and DART-MS2 , and their identification using these techniques was straightforward as the characteristic ions for each PA polymer were identified and detected. Furthermore, the spectra were obtained rapidly. Therefore, DART-HRMS can be considered an efficient screening technique for the rapid identification and differentiation of PA polymers.

Abstract
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted recently considerable attention in analytical sample preparation, particularly when used as novel sorbent materials in solid-phase microextraction (SPME). MOFs are highly ordered porous crystalline structures, full of cavities. They are formed by inorganic centers (metal ion atoms or metal clusters) and organic linkers connected by covalent coordination bonds. Depending on the ratio of such precursors and the synthetic conditions, the characteristics of the resulting MOF vary significantly, thus drifting into a countless number of interesting materials with unique properties. Among astonishing features of MOFs, their high chemical and thermal stability, easy tuneability, simple synthesis, and impressive surface area (which is the highest known), are the most attractive characteristics that makes them outstanding materials in SPME. This review offers an overview on the current state of the use of MOFs in different SPME configurations, in all cases covering extraction devices coated with (or incorporating) MOFs, with particular emphases in their preparation.
