Development of a hydrophilic-lipophilic-balanced copolymer@zirconium-based metal-organic framework-based solid-phase microextraction probe for the trace determination of organophosphorus pesticides in tea infusions. Talanta 2024; 281:126823. [PMID: 39245009 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126823] [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: 07/08/2024] [Revised: 08/23/2024] [Accepted: 09/05/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
Organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) present in tea infusions pose a serious threat to human health. In this study, a sensitive method for the determination of OPPs was developed based on a direct-immersion solid-phase microextraction (DI-SPME) probe. By fine adjustment of the ratio and one-step polymerization of dihydroxy-functionalized zirconium-based metal-organic framework UiO-66-(OH)2 and divinylbenzene-N-vinyl pyrrolidone (DVB-NVP) microspheres, the DVB-NVP@ UiO-66-(OH)2 (D-N@U) composite with an optimal hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) was achieved. Furthermore, D-N@U was adhesively bonded to stainless-steel wires to fabricate a DI-SPME probe. OPPs, especially those with nonpolar properties characterized by a high octanol-water partition coefficient (log KOW), were selectively and efficiently enriched on the D-N@U-coated DI-SPME probe from tea infusions. Coupled with a gas chromatography-flame photometric detector, the as-fabricated D-N@U-coated DI-SPME probe achieved good performance for OPPs analysis with a wide linear dynamic range of 0.10-500.00 μg/L and low detection limits of 1.96-6.69 ng/L. Moreover, in spiked samples, the recoveries and relative standard deviations were in the ranges of 73.12%-101.20 % and 1.03%-6.56 %, respectively. Owing to its simple operation, high extraction efficiency, and high sensitivity, this approach has great potential for the rapid determination of multiple pesticide trace-level residues in food.

Abstract
Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has gained attention as a simple, fast, and non-exhaustive extraction technique, as its unique features enable its use for the extraction of many classes of drugs from biological matrices. This sample-preparation approach consolidates sampling and sample preparation into a single step, in addition to providing analyte preconcentration and sample clean-up. These features have helped SPME become an integral part of several analytical protocols for monitoring drug concentrations in human matrices in clinical, toxicological, and forensic medicine studies. Over the years, researchers have continued to develop the SPME technique, resulting in the introduction of novel sorbents and geometries, which have resulted in improved extraction efficiencies. This review summarizes developments and applications of SPME published between 2016 and 2022, specifically in relation to the analysis of central nervous system drugs, drugs used to treat cardiovascular disorders and bacterial infections, and drugs used in immunosuppressive and anticancer therapies.

Abstract
Single-cell heterogeneity in metabolism, drug resistance and disease type poses the need for analytical techniques for single-cell analysis. As the metabolome provides the closest view of the status quo in the cell, studying the metabolome at single-cell resolution may unravel said heterogeneity. A challenge in single-cell metabolome analysis is that metabolites cannot be amplified, so one needs to deal with picolitre volumes and a wide range of analyte concentrations. Due to high sensitivity and resolution, MS is preferred in single-cell metabolomics. Large numbers of cells need to be analysed for proper statistics; this requires high-throughput analysis, and hence automation of the analytical workflow. Significant advances in (micro)sampling methods, CE and ion mobility spectrometry have been made, some of which have been applied in high-throughput analyses. Microfluidics has enabled an automation of cell picking and metabolite extraction; image recognition has enabled automated cell identification. Many techniques have been used for data analysis, varying from conventional techniques to novel combinations of advanced chemometric approaches. Steps have been set in making data more findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable, but significant opportunities for improvement remain. Herein, advances in single-cell analysis workflows and data analysis are discussed, and recommendations are made based on the experimental goal.

Abstract
The development of novel sample preparation media plays a crucial role in pharmaceutical analysis. To facilitate the extraction and enrichment of pharmaceutical molecules in complex samples, various functionalized materials have been developed and prepared as adsorbents. Recently, some functionalized porous organic materials have become adsorbents for pharmaceutical analysis due to their unique properties of adsorption and recognition. These advanced porous organic materials, combined with consequent analytical techniques, have been successfully used for pharmaceutical analysis in complex samples such as environmental and biological samples. This review encapsulates the progress of advanced porous materials for pharmaceutical analysis including pesticides, antibiotics, chiral drugs, and other compounds in the past decade. In addition, we also address the limitations and future trends of these porous organic materials in pharmaceutical analysis.

Abstract
Miniaturized magnetic-based pipette tip microextraction is presented as a sample preparation approach for microsamples. It involves quick dispersion of a diminutive amount of a magnetic sorbent material in a low-volume sample (10 μL) to entrap the target analytes. Next, the dispersion is aspirated using a (semi)automatic pipette through a pipette tip with a small cubic neodymium magnet inside, which retrieves the magnetic sorbent containing the analytes. After discarding the rest of the sample, the sorbent is properly rinsed by aspirating/dispensing deionized water, and then, the analytes are eluted by aspirating/dispensing an appropriate solvent. This approach was employed for the determination of free cortisol in serum and urine from very low birth weight preterm newborns, a vulnerable patient group who present low availability for sampling biological fluids. A magnetic immunosorbent made of a cortisol antibody was employed for the selective extraction, followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Good analytical features were obtained, such as limits of detection and quantification of 0.08 and 0.27 ng mL-1, respectively, linearity up to 50 ng mL-1 (R2 > 0.999), RSD values under 15% and relative recoveries between 91 and 111%. The cross-reactivity with other glucocorticoids (i.e., cortisone and prednisolone) was evaluated to show the selectivity of the extraction. Finally, the method applicability was demonstrated towards the determination of free cortisol in the serum and urine samples from low birth weight preterm newborns.

Abstract
Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) possesses unique features that allow it to be used in analyses that would not be possible with traditional sample-preparation methods. The simplicity of SPME protocols and extraction devices makes it a uniform platform for analyzing biological samples, either via the headspace or in direct immersion mode. Furthermore, flexible probe design enables SPME to be applied to target objects of different sizes, offering analysis on a scale ranging "from single cell to living organs". SPME microfibers are minimally invasive, which enables them to be applied for the spatial and temporal monitoring of target analytes or to assess changes in the entire metabolome or lipidome. Furthermore, SPME permits the capture of the elusive portion of the metabolome, thus complementing exhaustive methods that are biased towards highly abundant and stable species. Significantly, SPME can be interfaced with analytical instrumentation to create a rapid diagnostic tool. However, despite these advantages, SPME has some limitations that must be well-understood and addressed. This paper presents examples of up-to-date applications of SPME, challenges related to particular studies, and future perspectives regarding the application of SPME in biomedical analysis.

Abstract
Metabolomics, as a new omics technology, has been widely accepted by researchers and has shown great potential in the field of nutrition and health in recent years. This review briefly introduces the process of metabolomics analysis, including sample preparation and extraction, derivatization, separation and detection, and data processing. This paper focuses on the application of metabolomics in food-derived bioactive ingredients. For example, metabolomics techniques are used to analyze metabolites in food to find bioactive substances or new metabolites in food materials. Moreover, bioactive substances have been tested in vitro and in vivo, as well as in humans, to investigate the changes of metabolites and the underlying metabolic pathways, among which metabolomics is used to find potential biomarkers and targets. Metabolomics provides a new approach for the prevention and regulation of chronic diseases and the study of the underlying mechanisms. It also provides strong support for the development of functional food or drugs. Although metabolomics has some limitations such as low sensitivity, poor repeatability, and limited detection range, it is developing rapidly in general, and also in the field of nutrition and health. At the end of this paper, we put forward our own insights on the development prospects of metabolomics in the application of bioactive ingredients in food.

Abstract
Cocaine abuse has attracted increased attention in the recent past since it can cause addiction and great harm to the normal human body. Due to cocaine exists in various complex matrices, the detection of it in different matrices is helpful to prevent abuse. It is thus imperative to establish efficient and accurate methods for pretreatment and detection of cocaine in different samples. The present study provides a summary of the research progress of cocaine pretreatment methods (such as different microextraction methods, QuEChERS, and solid phase extraction based on novel extraction materials) and detection approaches (such as liquid chromatography coupled with different detectors, gas chromatography and related techniques, capillary electrophoresis and sensors). A comparison of the pros and cons of different pretreatment and detection methods is presented. The findings of this study will provide a reference for selection of the most suitable cocaine pretreatment and detection techniques.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated for the first time the suitability of supramolecular solvent (SUPRAS)-based microextraction probe for the development of generic and fast sample treatment prior to qualitative analysis by ambient mass spectrometry (AMS) based on ASAP (atmospheric solids analysis probe). SUPRAS are nanostructured liquids formed by the self-assembly of amphiphilic aggregates with multiple binding sites and microenvironments of different polarity for the efficient extraction of multiple compounds. Different types of SUPRAS were evaluated as a simple and single step sample treatment for ASAP. The method was applied to the screening of bisphenol A and structural analogues in thermal paper. Optimal results were achieved with SUPRAS synthesized with 1-decanol in mixtures of ethanol:water. SUPRAS (1.1-2 μL) were loaded onto glass probes and placed in contact with samples for 10 s before ASAP analysis. AMS signal peaks (width: 0.2-0.5 min) were easily integrated and normalized with internal standards (RSD: 2-25%). The method was applied to 62 samples of thermal paper. BPA and BPS were the most widely used, this highlighting the progressive industrial replacement of BPA by BPS.

Abstract
Brain tumors are neoplasms with one of the highest mortality rates. Therefore, the availability of methods that allow for the quick and effective diagnosis of brain tumors and selection of appropriate treatments is of critical importance for patient outcomes. In this study, coated blade spray-mass spectrometry (CBS-MS), which combines the features of microextraction and fast ionization methods, was applied for the analysis of brain tumors. In this approach, a sword-shaped probe is coated with a sorptive material to enable the extraction of analytes from biological samples. The analytes are then desorbed using only a few microliters of solvent, followed by the insertion of the CBS device into the interface on the mass spectrometer source. The results of this proof-of-concept experiment confirmed that CBS coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) enables the rapid differentiation of two histologically different lesions: meningiomas and gliomas. Moreover, quantitative CBS-HRMS/MS analysis of carnitine, the endogenous compound, previously identified as a discriminating metabolite, showed good reproducibility with the variation below 10% when using a standard addition calibration strategy and deuterated internal standards for correction. The resultant data show that the proposed CBS-MS technique can be useful for on-site qualitative and quantitative assessments of brain tumor metabolite profiles.

Abstract
The development of a fast and accurate intraoperative method that enables the differentiation and stratification of cancerous lesions is still a challenging problem in laboratory medicine. Therefore, it is important to find and optimize a simple and effective analytical method of enabling the selection of distinctive metabolites. This study aims to assess the usefulness of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) probes as a sampling method for the lipidomic analysis of brain tumors. To this end, SPME was applied to sample brain tumors immediately after excision, followed by lipidomic analysis via liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). The results showed that long fibers were a good option for extracting analytes from an entire lesion to obtain an average lipidomic profile. Moreover, significant differences between tumors of different histological origin were observed. In-depth investigation of the glioma samples revealed that malignancy grade and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status impact the lipidomic composition of the tumor, whereas 1p/19q co-deletion did not appear to alter the lipid profile. This first on-site lipidomic analysis of intact tumors proved that chemical biopsy with SPME is a promising tool for the simple and fast extraction of lipid markers in neurooncology.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2022; 414:2493-2503. [PMID: 35171297 PMCID: PMC8853384 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-022-03890-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Sol-gel materials have been widely used for solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coatings due to their outstanding performance; in contrast, sol-gel SPME coatings have seldom been used for in vivo sampling. The main reason is that their matrix compatibility is unclear. In order to promote the application of this type of coating and accelerate the development of in vivo SPME, in this study, the matrix compatibility of several typical sol-gel coatings was assessed in plasma and whole blood using phthalic acid esters as analytes. The service life of five kinds of sol-gel coatings was among 20-35 times in undiluted plasma, while it was 27 times for a homemade commercial polydimethylsiloxane coating, which indicates good matrix compatibility of sol-gel coatings in untreated plasma. The sol-gel hydroxy-terminated silicone oil/methacrylic acid fiber achieved the highest extraction ability among all of the fibers, and it was tested in pig whole blood. It could be continuously used for at least 22 times, demonstrating good potential for in vivo sampling. Subsequently, a direct-immersion SPME/gas chromatography-flame ionization detection method was established for the determination of 5 phthalic acid esters in blood. Compared with other methods reported in the literature, this method is rapid, simple, sensitive, and accurate, and does not need expensive instruments or tedious procedures. A simulation system of animal blood circulation was constructed to verify the practicability of sol-gel SPME coatings in animal vein sampling. The result illustrated the feasibility of that coating for in vivo blood sampling, but a more accurate quantification calibration approach needs to be explored.

Abstract
Combining solid phase microextraction (SPME) and mass spectrometry (MS) analysis has become increasingly important to many bioanalytical, environmental, and forensic applications due to its simplicity, rapid analysis, and capability of reducing matrix effects for complex samples. To further promote the adoption of SPME-MS based analysis and expand its application scope calls for efficient and convenient interfaces that couple the SPME sample handling with the efficient analyte ionization for MS. Here, we report a novel interface that integrates both the desorption and the ionization steps in one device based on the capillary vibrating sharp-edge spray ionization (cVSSI) method. We demonstrated that the cVSSI is capable of nebulizing liquid samples in a pulled-tip glass capillary with a battery powered function generator. The cVSSI device allows the insertion of a SPME probe into the spray capillary for desorption and then direct nebulization of the desorption solvent in situ. With the integrated interface, we have demonstrated rapid MS analysis of drug compounds from serum samples. Quantitative determination of various drug compounds including metoprolol, pindolol, acebutolol, oxprenolol, capecitabine, and irinotecan was achieved with good linearity (R2 = 0.97-0.99) and limit of detection ranging from 0.25 to 0.59 ng/mL without using a high voltage source. Only 3.5 μL of desorption solvent and 3 min desorption time were needed for the present method. Overall, we demonstrated a portable SPME-MS interface featuring high sensitivity, short analysis time, small footprint, and low cost, which makes it an attractive method for many applications requiring sample cleanup including drug compound monitoring, environmental sample analysis, and forensic sample analysis.

Abstract
Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is a well-established sample-preparation technique for environmental studies. The application of SPME has extended from the headspace extraction of volatile compounds to the capture of active components in living organisms via the direct immersion of SPME probes into the tissue (in vivo SPME). The development of biocompatible coatings and the availability of different calibration approaches enable the in vivo sampling of exogenous and endogenous compounds from the living plants and animals without the need for tissue collection. In addition, new geometries such as thin-film coatings, needle-trap devices, recession needles, coated tips, and blades have increased the sensitivity and robustness of in vivo sampling. In this paper, we detail the fundamentals of in vivo SPME, including the various extraction modes, coating geometries, calibration methods, and data analysis methods that are commonly employed. We also discuss recent applications of in vivo SPME in environmental studies and in the analysis of pollutants in plant and animal tissues, as well as in human saliva, breath, and skin analysis. As we show, in vivo SPME has tremendous potential for the targeted and untargeted screening of small molecules in living organisms for environmental monitoring applications.

Abstract
Probe electrospray ionization (PESI) is an ambient ionization mass spectrometry technique (AIMS) that is primarily used in qualitative studies, though researchers have recently combined it with sample preparation for the quantitative analysis of various analytes in biological matrices. This study presents a method that integrates solid-phase microextraction with PESI for direct coupling to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, and examines its ability to quantitate drugs of abuse. Intra- and inter-probe reproducibility experiments were conducted to assess the stability and reproducibility of the extraction-phase-coated PESI probes (coating length: 2 mm; coating thickness: 6.5 μm). This research is the first documented instance wherein highly sensitive determinations were successfully attained using these microextraction and micro-desorption techniques in conjunction with small volumes of sample and extraction phase. A mixture consisting of IPA/H2O (1/1 v/v) + 0.1% FA was determined to be the optimal desorption solvent for SPME-PESI-MS/MS, as it facilitated high analyte enrichment in a picolitre of the solvent, which acted at the same time as efficient electrospray media. Furthermore, a method of quantifying drugs of abuse in 30 μL of plasma without matrix modification was also developed. This method had an intra-day accuracy within the 80-120% range for all eight drugs of abuse at concentrations of 3, 30, and 90 pg μL-1; the exception to this result was lorazepam at 30 pg μL-1, which had an intra-day accuracy of 122%. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) for fentanyl and nordiazepam was pg μL-1; the LLOQ for buprenorphine, codeine, diazepam, lorazepam, and propranolol was 5 pg μL-1; and the LLOQ of oxazepam was 10 pg μL-1.

Abstract
PURPOSE Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a potentially fatal hypermetabolic condition triggered by certain anesthetics and caused by defective calcium homeostasis in skeletal muscle cells. Recent evidence has revealed impairment of various biochemical pathways in MH-susceptible patients in the absence of anesthetics. We hypothesized that clinical differences between MH-susceptible and control individuals are reflected in measurable differences in myoplasmic metabolites. METHODS We performed metabolomic profiling of skeletal muscle samples from MH-negative (control) individuals and MH-susceptible patients undergoing muscle biopsy for diagnosis of MH susceptibility. Cellular metabolites were extracted from 33 fresh and 87 frozen human muscle samples using solid phase microextraction and Metabolon® untargeted biochemical profiling platforms, respectively. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry was used for metabolite identification and validation, followed by analysis of differences in metabolites between the MH-susceptible and MH-negative groups. RESULTS Significant fold-change differences between the MH-susceptible and control groups in metabolites from various pathways were found (P value range: 0.009 to < 0.001). These included accumulation of long chain acylcarnitines, diacylglycerols, phosphoenolpyruvate, histidine pathway metabolites, lysophosphatidylcholine, oxidative stress markers, and phosphoinositols, as well as decreased levels of monoacylglycerols. The results from both analytical platforms were in agreement. CONCLUSION This metabolomics study indicates a shift from utilization of carbohydrates towards lipids for energy production in MH-susceptible individuals. This shift may result in inefficiency of beta-oxidation, and increased muscle protein turnover, oxidative stress, and/or lysophosphatidylcholine levels.

Abstract
To simplify on-site water sampling and screening, particularly in hard-to-reach or dangerous sites, a drone equipped with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB), thin-film solid-phase microextraction (TF-SPME) sampler was developed. The drone-based sampler was shown to protect the sorbent phase from external contamination while preventing any detectable loss of components of a spiked modified McReynolds mixture on the membrane in the sampler for at least 10 min. HLB/poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) membranes deployed in flight on the drone sampler were demonstrated to extract disinfection by-products, including trichloromethane, dichloroacetonitrile, 1,1,1-trichloro-2-propanone, 2,2,2-trichloroethanol, benzonitrile, and benzyl nitrile, from hot tub water. When analyzed on-site, in duplicate, using hand-portable instrumentation, reasonably repeatable results were achieved (%relative standard deviations (RSD's) 5-16%). Finally, drone TF-SPME sampling of an anthropogenically impacted watercourse indicated that impact from the suspected nearby landfill site was minimal, instead suggesting that internal combustion by-products from vehicles on the nearby Highway 401 played a much larger role in contaminating the watercourse. This conclusion was supported by the confirmed presence of BTEX, styrene, isopropylbenzene, propylbenzene, and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene. In addition to immediately identifying these compounds on-site using portable gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), samples were taken back to the laboratory for benchtop analysis, further supporting this conclusion.

Abstract
In vivo solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has been recently proposed for the extraction, clean-up and preconcentration of analytes of biological and clinical concern. Bioanalysis can be performed by sampling exo- or endogenous compounds directly in living organisms with minimum invasiveness. In this context, innovative and miniaturized devices characterized by both commercial and lab-made coatings for in vivo SPME tissue sampling have been proposed, thus assessing the feasibility of this technique for biomarker discovery, metabolomics studies or for evaluating the environmental conditions to which organisms can be exposed. Finally, the possibility of directly interfacing SPME to mass spectrometers represents a valuable tool for the rapid quali- and quantitative analysis of complex matrices. This review article provides a survey of in vivo SPME applications focusing on the extraction of tissues, cells and simple organisms. This survey will attempt to cover the state-of- the-art from 2014 up to 2019.

Abstract
Anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) represent two of the most important endocannabinoids (ECs) investigated in neurobiology as therapeutic targets for several mental disorders. However, the determination of these ECs in biological matrices remains a challenging task because of the low concentrations, low stability and high protein-bound (LogP ∼ 6). This work describes innovative analytical methods based on biocompatible SPME (Bio-SPME), SPME-UHPLC-MS/MS and Bio-SPME-Nano-ESI-MS/MS, to determine AEA and 2-AG in human plasma samples. The direct coupling of Bio-SPME with nano-ESI-MS/MS can be considered an alternative tool for faster analysis. Different Bio-SPME fibers based on silica and polymeric coating (i.e. C18, C30, and HLB) were evaluated. Different desorption solvents based on combinations of methanol, acetonitrile, and isopropanol were also evaluated for efficient elution with minimum carry-over. Given the high protein binding analytes and the fact that SPME extracts the free-concentration of the analytes, the plasma samples were modified with additives such as guanidine hydrochloride (Gu-HCl), trifluoroacetic acid, and acetonitrile. This study was carried out by experimental design to achieve complete protein denaturation and the release of target analytes. The maximum extraction efficiency was obtained under the following conditions: HLB coated fibers (10 mm length, 20 μm coating thickness), matrix modified (300 μL of plasma) with 50 μL of Gu-HCL 1 mol L-1, 75 μL of ACN and 75 μL of water, and desorption with methanol/isopropanol solution (50:50, v/v). Both methods were validated based on current international guidelines and can be applied for monitoring of concentrations of endocannabinoids in plasma samples. SPME-UHPLC-MS/MS method presented lower LOQ values than SPME-nanoESI-MS/MS. The additional separation (chromatographic column) favored the detectability of LC-MS/MS method. However, the SPME-nano-ESI-MS/MS decrease the total analysis time, due to significant reductions in desorption and detection times.
