Surface molecularly imprinted-based matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry for highly selective and sensitive direct analysis of paraquat in complicated samples.

[PMID: 36898307 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.124423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023]
Abstract
Herein, a novel surface molecularly imprinted-based matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SMI-MALDI-TOF MS) method for direct target paraquat (PQ) analysis in complicated samples is reported. Notably, a captured analyte-imprinted material can be directly detected via MALDI-TOF MS by using imprinted material as nanomatrix. Using this strategy, the molecular specific affinity performance of surface molecularly imprinted polymers (SMIPs) and the high-sensitivity detection capability of MALDI-TOF MS was integrated. The introduction of SMI endowed the nanomatrix with the capacity for rebinding the target analyte and ensuring specificity, prevented the interfering organic matrix, and enhanced the analyzing sensitivity. By using paraquat (PQ) as a template, dopamine as a monomer, and covalent organic frameworks with a carboxyl group (C-COFs) as a substrate, polydopamine (PDA) was decorated on C-COFs via a simple self-assembly procedure to generate an analyte-based surface molecularly imprinted polymer (C-COF@PDA-SMIP), which served the dual function of SMIP capturing the target analytes and high-efficiency ionization. Thus, a reliable MALDI-TOF MS detection PQ with high selectivity and sensitivity as well as an interference-free background was achieved. The synthesis and enrichment conditions of C-COF@PDA-SMIPs were optimized, and its structure and property were characterized. Under optimal experimental conditions, the proposed method achieved highly selective and ultrasensitive detection of PQ from 5 to 500 pg mL-1, and the limit of detection was as low as 0.8 pg mL-1, which is at least three orders of magnitude lower than that achieved without enrichment. In addition, the specificity of the proposed method was superior to that of C-COFs and nonimprinted polymers. Moreover, this method exhibited reproducibility, stability, and high salt tolerance. Lastly, the practical applicability of the method was successfully verified by analyzing complicated samples, such as grass and orange.

Abstract
The need for analytical methods that are fast, affordable, and ecologically friendly is expanding. Because of its low solvent consumption, minimal waste production, and speedy analysis, capillary electrophoresis is considered a "green" choice among analytical separation methods. With these "green" features, we have utilized the capillary electrophoresis method with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (CE-C4D) to simultaneously determine glucosamine and Ca2+ in dietary supplements. The CE analysis was performed in fused silica capillaries (50 μm inner diameter, 40 cm total length, 30 cm effective length), and the analytical time was around 5 min. After optimization, the CE conditions for selective determination of glucosamine and Ca2+ were obtained, including a 10 mM tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane/acetic acid (Tris/Ace) buffer of pH 5.0 as the background electrolyte; separation voltage of 20 kV; and hydrodynamic injection (siphoning) at 25 cm height for 30 s. The method illustrated good linearity over the concentration range of 5.00 to 200 mg/L of for glucosamine (R 2 = 0.9994) and 1.00 to 100 mg/L for Ca2+ (R 2 = 0.9994). Under the optimum conditions, the detection limit of glucosamine was 1.00 mg/L, while that of Ca2+ was 0.05 mg/L. The validated method successfully analyzed glucosamine and Ca2+ in seven dietary supplement samples. The measured concentrations were generally in line with the values of label claims and with cross-checking data from reference methods (HPLC and ICP-OES).

Paraquat and Diquat: Recent Updates on Their Pretreatment and Analysis Methods since 2010 in Biological Samples. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 28:molecules28020684. [PMID: 36677742 PMCID: PMC9866389 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28020684] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Paraquat (PQ) and diquat (DQ) are quaternary ammonium herbicides which have been used worldwide for controlling the growth of weeds on land and in water. However, PQ and DQ are well known to be toxic. PQ is especially toxic to humans. Moreover, there is no specific antidote for PQ poisoning. The main treatment for PQ poisoning is hemoperfusion to reduce the PQ concentration in blood. Therefore, it is essential to be able to detect PQ and DQ concentrations in biological samples. This critical review summarizes the articles published from 2010 to 2022 and can help researchers to understand the development of the sample treatment and analytical methods for the determination of PQ and DQ in various types of biological samples. The sample preparation includes liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction based on different novel materials, microextration methods, and other methods. Analytical methods for quantifying PQ and DQ, such as different chromatography and spectroscopy methods, electrochemical methods, and immunological methods, are illustrated and compared. We focus on the latest advances in PQ and DQ treatment and the application of new technologies for these analyses. In our opinion, tandem mass spectrometry is a good choice for the determination of PQ and DQ, due to its high sensitivity, high selectivity, and high accuracy. As far as we are concerned, the best LOD of 4 pg/mL for PQ in serum can be obtained.

Abstract
Determining the presence of paraquat (PQ) and diquat (DQ) in urine samples through physical and chemical testing is challenging. As PQ and DQ have characteristics such as high molecular polarity and good water solubility, they are difficult to be retained by conventional reversed-phase columns. Most of the methods in the literature use hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) for the retention of PQ and DQ, but they often require high concentrations of buffer salts as the mobile phase, which increase the contamination of the mass spectrometer. In view of the above problems, a rapid and accurate analysis method was developed for the determination of PQ and DQ residuals in urine samples based on weak cation exchange (WCX) solid-phase extraction (SPE) and ultra performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) in this study. Urine samples were first diluted with phosphate buffer (pH=6.86) and pretreated using the WCX SPE method. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Syncronis HILIC column (100 mm×2.1 mm, 1.7 μm). An electrospray ion source in the positive (ESI+) mode and full mass-data dependent MS2 (full mass-ddMS2) mode was used for quantification by matrix-matched external standard method. In this study, the concentration of ammonium formate in the mobile phase in the HILIC mode was effectively reduced to 10 mmol/L by the continuous optimization of the chromatographic conditions. MS optimization results indicated that the molecular ion (M+·) of PQ and DQ had the strongest response. In addition, sample pretreatment conditions were also optimized. The obtained results indicated that the hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filter membrane, acetonitrile-water (1∶1, v/v) as a fixing solution, and polypropylene vials were suitable for PQ and DQ analysis. Under the optimal conditions, the linearity of PQ and DQ was good with correlation coefficients (r2) greater than 0.998. The limits of detection (LODs, S/N≥3) and limits of quantification (LOQs, S/N≥10) were 0.2 μg/L and 0.6 μg/L, respectively. Mean spiked recoveries of PQ and DQ at the four spiked levels (1.0, 20.0, 100.0, and 200.0 μg/L) were in the range of 85.8%-101% and 80.3%-86.9%, with the RSDs of 0.8%-5.1% and 0.9%-4.2%. The established method was employed for the analysis and confirmation of PQ and DQ for clinical poisoning cases. In one case, a 23-year-old male who had taken approximately 20 mL of pesticide orally was confirmed as DQ poisoning by the developed method. DQ concentration monitoring of the urine samples was conducted for this case during the clinical treatment process. The patient was successfully discharged from the hospital after five times of blood perfusion and other treatments until the DQ concentration was low in the urine samples. In conclusion, the method developed in this study based on WCX SPE-UPLC-HRMS can be used for the confirmation of poisoning cases and concentration monitoring during clinical treatment, providing strong technical support for clinical precision treatment. The method is rapid, simple, sensitive, and accurate, and it is suitable for the detection of PQ and DQ in urine samples.

Abstract
Vitamins and minerals are usually incorporated in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products, but a simple, rapid, and inexpensive analytical method for their simultaneous determination is still lacking. In this study, we developed a quantification method for pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and magnesium (Mg) by using purpose-made capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (CE-C4D) instrument. Main analytical conditions include: fused silica capillary (total length 55 cm, effective length 40 cm, inner diameter 50 μm); background electrolyte consisted of 10 mM L-arginine/acetic acid (pH 5) with 20% acetonitrile; separation voltage + 20 kV; hydrodynamic injection (siphoning at 20 cm in 25 s). Detection limits of vitamin B6 and Mg were 1 and 0.1 mg/L, respectively. Good linearity (R2 > 0.999) was observed for vitamin B6 and Mg calibration curves over concentration ranges of 3-100 and 0.3-200 mg/L, respectively. The method was applied to analyze vitamin B6 and Mg in several pharmaceutical and nutraceutical samples. The analytical results obtained by our method were in good agreement with reference methods (i.e., HPLC for vitamin B6 and ICP-OES for Mg). High-efficient and low-cost CE-C4D method can accordingly serve as a promising tool for concurrent analysis of inorganic and organic species in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paraquat ( PQ) is very poisonous to humans and animals and there is no effective clinical antidote . The efficacy of hemoperfusion (HP) treatment for PQ poisoning remains controversial. To explore new ways to predict the prognosis of patients with acute PQ poisoning and assist in the development of better hemopurification treatment strategies. METHODS The clinical data of patients who were intoxicated with PQ through contact were diagnosed with PQ poisoning by high-performance liquid chromatography. Samples were collected by the Emergency Intensive Care Unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2012 to November 2016. Based on the prognosis, the patients were grouped into survival and death groups. Comparisons of the differences in the clinical indexes were performed, including the initial concentration of PQ at admission, PQ concentration after first HP, the number of HP cartridges used for the first hemoperfusion, whether HP was combined with continuous renal replacement therapy, and the number of concurrent organ injuries between the 2 groups. In addition, data were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression models and receiver operating characteristic curves. Moreover, prognostic factors in patients with acute PQ poisoning were analyzed. RESULTS Overall, 128 patients with acute PQ poisoning were enrolled in this study. The median plasma PQ concentrations of the patients at admission were 21 and 834 ng/mL (range: 50-1,099,118 ng/mL). The multiple logistic regression model revealed that the initial concentration of PQ and the PQ concentration after the first perfusion were independent risk factors for death in patients with acute PQ poisoning. The PQ concentration in the survival group after the first HP was <516 ng/mL and was mainly distributed at approximately 100 ng/mL. The percentage of patients whose concentration after the first HP was <516 ng/mL in the death group was only 19%. CONCLUSIONS The initial plasma PQ concentration after admission and PQ concentration after the first HP are risk factors for death in patients with acute PQ poisoning. Moreover, PQ concentration after the first HP had a high predictive value for death. When the initial plasma PQ concentration after admission ranges from 50 ng/mL to 5000 ng/mL, the rapid reduction in plasma PQ concentration after HP treatment could improve the prognosis of patients with acute PQ poisoning.

Abstract
The contamination of paraquat in vegetables is widely connected with human health risks, leading to the research interest in developing a paraquat sensing system. This work reports a simple detection method of paraquat based on the electrostatic interaction of paraquat and the negatively charged gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), resulting in the changes of colors from red to blue and the shifting of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peaks of AuNPs. The limit of detection concentration (CLOD ) of this system was 100 μM paraquat. Moreover, among eight cationic salts tested, NaCl was selective to enhance the detection sensitivity of the system, resulting in the reduction of CLOD to 0.10 μM. This system selectively detected paraquat, but not other tested herbicides (ametryn, atrazine, glyphosate, and 2,4-D-dimethyl ammonium). The paraquat-spiking experiment in kale demonstrated the significant recovery rate of paraquat at 96.0-103.0%, and the relative standard deviations were less than 4%. The developed system was efficient for screening contaminated paraquat in vegetables under unwashed and washed conditions. Three out of five unwashed vegetables had a significant level of paraquat as determined by LSPR values. These results suggested the potential application of this system for a simple screening of contaminated paraquat in vegetables. Simple paraquat-screening system was developed based on the negatively charged gold nanoparticles. The limit of paraquat detection of this system was 0.10 μM. This system was potentially used for a simple screening of contaminated paraquat in vegetables.

Abstract
In recent years, a trend toward utilizing open access resources for laboratory research has begun. Open-source design strategies for scientific hardware rely upon the use of widely available parts, especially those that can be directly printed using additive manufacturing techniques and electronic components that can be connected to low-cost microcontrollers. Open-source software eliminates the need for expensive commercial licenses and provides the opportunity to design programs for specific needs. In this review, the impact of the "open-source movement" within the field of chemical separations is described, primarily through a comprehensive look at research in this area over the past five years. Topics that are covered include general laboratory equipment, sample preparation techniques, separations-based analysis, detection strategies, electronic system control, and software for data processing. Remaining hurdles and possible opportunities for further adoption of open-source approaches in the context of these separations-related topics are also discussed.

Modular instrumentation for capillary electrophoresis with laser induced fluorescence detection using plug-and-play microfluidic, electrophoretic and optic modules. Anal Chim Acta 2020; 1135:47-54. [PMID: 33070858 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2020.08.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2020] [Revised: 08/07/2020] [Accepted: 08/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
This study reports on the development of a novel instrument for capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled with laser induced fluorescence (LIF) detection that is inspired by the Lego-toy concept. The Lego CE-LIF design is an evolution of purpose-made CE instrumentation, allowing the users to construct their own analytical device with a high degree of standardization (i.e. a "standard" setup) without requirement of mechanical and electronic workshop facilities. To allow instrument reproduction outside the original fabrication laboratory, which is not trivial for in-house-built CE systems, the new design is based on unprecedent 'plugging' hyphenation of various off-the-shelf parts available for microfluidics, optics and electrophoresis. To render the operation with Lego CE-LIF optimal, we developed a new background electrolyte (BGE), using for the first time extremely high concentrations of zwitterionic and large weakly charged species for much improvement of detection sensitivity. The Lego CE-LIF was demonstrated for separation and detection of oligosaccharides labelled with 8-aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid (APTS). The new gel-free BGE for oligosaccharide analysis also allowed simplification of the conventional CE-LIF protocol used with commercial instruments while keeping satisfactory separation performances. Furthermore, the new BGE is fully compatible with a non-thermostatted Lego CE instrument thanks to low current and therefore low heat generation under application of a high voltage.

Abstract
In this study, the employment of a purpose-made capillary electrophoresis (CE) instrument with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D) as a simple and cost-effective approach for simultaneous determination of different carbapenem antibiotics is reported. The developed CE-C4D approach was for the first time applied for quality control of various pharmaceutical formulations in Vietnam, as well as for therapeutic monitoring of these antibiotics in plasma samples from patients under intensive care. Four of the most popular carbapenems in Vietnam, doripenem, meropenem, imipenem and ertapenem, were determined using an electrolyte composed of 10 mM Tris adjusted to pH 8.0 with acetic acid. The best detection limits achieved using the developed CE-C4D method were 0.36 mg/L and 0.45 mg/L for pharmaceutical and plasma samples, respectively. Good agreement between results from CE-C4D and the confirmation method (HPLC-PDA) was achieved, with a coefficient of determination (r2) for the two pairs of data of 0.9967.

Abstract
In this study is reported a simple and inexpensive method for concurrent determination of taurine and choline in different supplementary nutrient samples using dual-channeled capillary electrophoresis (CE) instrument with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D). The objective of the work is to propose a tool for food control activities that allows screening of different target compounds (having different characteristics) in a single run for high throughput and can be realizable even with modest infrastructure. Taurine was analyzed in the first CE channel using the background electrolyte (BGE) composed of 150 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane/lactic acid (pH 8.96) whereas choline was simultaneously separated in the second CE channel using a BGE containing 150 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane/acetic acid (pH 9.5). The best achieved detection limit was 0.27 mg/L and 0.45 mg/L for taurine and choline, respectively, using the developed CE-C4D method. Good agreement between results obtained from CE-C4D and those with the standard confirmation methods (HPLC-DAD for taurine and LC/MS for choline) was achieved, with the result deviation for the two pairs of data being less than 12%.

Abstract
The publications concerning capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection for the 2-year period from mid-2016 to mid-2018 are covered in this update to the earlier reviews of the series. Relatively few reports on fundamental investigations or new designs have appeared in the literature in this time interval, but the development of new applications with the detection method has continued strongly. Most often, contactless conductivity measurements have been employed for the detection of inorganic or small organic ions in conventional capillary electrophoresis, less often in microchip electrophoresis. A number of other uses, such as detection in chromatography or the gauging of bubbles in streams have also been reported.

Abstract
Development of a technically simple yet effective method for paraquat (PQ) detection is of great importance due to its high clinical and environmental relevance. In this study, we developed a pyranine-based fluorescent "turn-off" method for PQ sensing based on pyranine-PQ interaction. We investigated the dependence of analytical performance of this method on the experimental conditions, such as the ion strength, medium pH, and so on. Under the optimized conditions, the method is sensitive and selective, and could be used for PQ detection in real-world sample. This study essentially provides a readily accessible fluorescent system for PQ sensing which is cheap, robust, and technically simple, and it is envisaged to find more interesting clinical and environmental applications.

Abstract
We developed a metabolomic method to evaluate the effect of pirfenidone on rats with acute paraquat (PQ) poisoning, through the analysis of various tissues (lung, liver, kidney, and heart), by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Thirty-eight rats were randomly divided into a control group, an acute PQ (20 mg kg−1) poisoning group, a pirfenidone (20 mg kg−1) treatment group, and a pirfenidone (40 mg kg−1) treatment group. Partial least squares-discriminate analysis (PLS-DA) revealed metabolic alterations in rat tissue samples from the two pirfenidone treatment groups after acute PQ poisoning. The PLS-DA 3D score chart showed that the rats in the acute PQ poisoning group were clearly distinguished from the rats in the control group. Also, the two pirfenidone treatment groups were distinguished from the acute PQ poisoning group and control group. Additionally, the pirfenidone (40 mg kg−1) treatment group was separated farther than the pirfenidone (20 mg kg−1) treatment group from the acute PQ poisoning group. Evaluation of the pathological changes in the rat tissues revealed that treatment with pirfenidone appeared to decrease pulmonary fibrosis in the acute PQ poisoning rats. The results indicate that pirfenidone induced beneficial metabolic alterations in the tissues of rats with acute PQ poisoning. Rats with acute PQ poisoning exhibited a certain reduction in biochemical indicators after treatment with pirfenidone, indicating that pirfenidone could protect liver and kidney function. Accordingly, the developed metabolomic approach proved to be useful to elucidate the effect of pirfenidone in rats of acute PQ poisoning.
