Abstract
The simultaneous determination of monosaccharides present in the activated sludge would be crucial to understand the water treatment mechanism. Herein, an ion chromatography-mass spectrometry (IC-MS) with online pretreatment of column switching technique was proposed to analyze monosaccharides hydrolyzed from extracellular polysaccharides in the activated sludge. When the matrix was eliminated in the first dimension, monosaccharides were immediately identified by IC-MS. The improved ionization efficiency was achieved with the addition of T-joint prior to MS. During the performance test, our established method showed excellent detection limits ranging from 0.34 to 2.15 μg/L for all sugar targets. Great linearity (R ≥ 0.9955) was also achieved using this method in the range from 0.01 to 5 mg/L. Furthermore, the average recoveries were obtained between 84.82 and 113.46%. RSDs for peak areas and retention times were determined as 3.76% and 0.27%, respectively. Finally, this approach provided a rapid, convenient, and practical determination of monosaccharides in the activated sludge, which would be helpful for the analysis of monosaccharides derived from other biological samples.

Improvement of sugar analysis sensitivity using anion-exchange chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry with sheath liquid interface. J Chromatogr A 2014; 1366:65-72. [PMID: 25246101 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2014.09.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2014] [Revised: 09/01/2014] [Accepted: 09/08/2014] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
A novel interface that enables high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) to be coupled with electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry (MS) is reported. A sheath liquid consisting of 50mM NH4Ac in isopropanol with 0.05% acetic acid, infused at a flow rate of 3μL/min at the tip of the electrospray probe, requires less ESI source cleaning and promotes efficient ionization of mono- and di-carbohydrates. The results suggest that use of a sheath liquid interface rather than a T-joint allows volatile ammonium salts to replace non-volatile metal salts as modifiers for improving sugar ESI signals. The efficient ionization of mono- and di-carbohydrates in the ESI source is affected by the sheath liquid properties such as buffer concentration and type of organic solvent. HPAEC-ESI-MS was used for the analysis of monocarbohydrates in pectins, particularly co-eluted sugars, and the performance was evaluated. Addition of a make-up solution through the sheath liquid interface proved to be an efficient tool for enhancing the intensities of sugars analyzed using HPAEC-ESI-MS.
