J Pharm Anal 2024; 14:100954. [PMID: 39175610 PMCID: PMC11340582 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpha.2024.02.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) is a widely utilized technique for in vivo pharmaceutical analysis. Ionization interference within electrospray ion source, occurring between drugs and metabolites, can lead to signal variations, potentially compromising quantitative accuracy. Currently, method validation often overlooks this type of signal interference, which may result in systematic errors in quantitative results without matrix-matched calibration. In this study, we conducted an investigation using ten different groups of drugs and their corresponding metabolites across three LC-ESI-MS systems to assess the prevalence of signal interference. Such interferences can potentially cause or enhance nonlinearity in the calibration curves of drugs and metabolites, thereby altering the relationship between analyte response and concentration for quantification. Finally, we established an evaluation scheme through a step-by-step dilution assay and employed three resolution methods: chromatographic separation, dilution, and stable labeled isotope internal standards correction. The above strategies were integrated into the method establishment process to improve quantitative accuracy.

Enhanced Metabolome Coverage and Evaluation of Matrix Effects by the Use of Experimental-Condition-Matched 13C-Labeled Biological Samples in Isotope-Assisted LC-HRMS Metabolomics. Metabolites 2020; 10:metabo10110434.

Abstract
Stable isotope-assisted approaches can improve untargeted liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) metabolomics studies. Here, we demonstrate at the example of chemically stressed wheat that metabolome-wide internal standardization by globally 13C-labeled metabolite extract (GLMe-IS) of experimental-condition-matched biological samples can help to improve the detection of treatment-relevant metabolites and can aid in the post-acquisition assessment of putative matrix effects in samples obtained upon different treatments. For this, native extracts of toxin- and mock-treated (control) wheat ears were standardized by the addition of uniformly 13C-labeled wheat ear extracts that were cultivated under similar experimental conditions (toxin-treatment and control) and measured with LC-HRMS. The results show that 996 wheat-derived metabolites were detected with the non-condition-matched 13C-labeled metabolite extract, while another 68 were only covered by the experimental-condition-matched GLMe-IS. Additional testing is performed with the assumption that GLMe-IS enables compensation for matrix effects. Although on average no severe matrix differences between both experimental conditions were found, individual metabolites may be affected as is demonstrated by wrong decisions with respect to the classification of significantly altered metabolites. When GLMe-IS was applied to compensate for matrix effects, 272 metabolites showed significantly altered levels between treated and control samples, 42 of which would not have been classified as such without GLMe-IS.

Abstract
Computational and experimental advances of recent years have culminated in establishing 13C-Metabolic Flux Analysis (13C-MFA) as a routine methodology to unravel the fluxome. As the acronym suggests, 13C-MFA has relied on the relative abundance of 13C-isotopes in metabolites for flux inference, most commonly measured by mass spectrometry. In this manuscript we expand the scope of labeling measurements to the case of simultaneous 13C- and 15N-labeling of amino acids. Analytically, the separation of isotopologues of this metabolite class can only be achieved at resolving power beyond 65,000. In this manuscript we harvest an overlooked property of the collision induced dissociation of amino acid adducts to discern 13C- and 15N- isotopologues of amino acids with a primary amine without separating them in the m/z domain.

Abstract
RATIONALE The linear intrascan and interscan dynamic ranges of mass spectrometers are important in metabolome and residue analysis. A large linear dynamic range is mandatory if both low- and high-abundance ions have to be detected and quantitated in heavy matrix samples. These performance criteria, as provided by modern high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), were systematically investigated. METHODS The comparison included two generations of Orbitraps, and an ion mobility quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF) system In addition, different scan modes, as provided by the utilized instruments, were investigated. Calibration curves of different compounds covering a concentration range of five orders of magnitude were measured to evaluate the linear interscan dynamic range. The linear intrascan dynamic range and the resulting mass accuracy were evaluated by repeating these measurements in the presence of a very intense background. RESULTS Modern HRMS instruments can show linear dynamic ranges of five orders of magnitude. Often, however, the linear dynamic range is limited by the detection capability (sensitivity and selectivity) and by the electrospray ionization. Orbitraps, as opposed to TOF instruments, show a reduced intrascan dynamic range. This is due to the limited C-trap and Orbitrap capacity. The tested TOF instrument shows poorer mass accuracies than the Orbitraps. In contrast, hyphenation with an ion-mobility device seems not to affect the linear dynamic range. CONCLUSIONS The linear dynamic range of modern HRMS instrumentation has been significantly improved. This also refers to the virtual absence of systematic mass shifts at high ion abundances. The intrascan dynamic range of the current Orbitrap technology may still be a limitation when analyzing complex matrix extracts. On the other hand, the linear dynamic range is not only limited by the detector technology, but can also be shortened by peripheral devices, where the ionization and transfer of ions take place.

Abstract
Current procedures for the evaluation of spectral accuracy of mass spectrometers are limited by the lack of certified isotopic reference materials and the high uncertainty in the isotopic composition of natural abundance molecules. The calculated uncertainties in the ratio M + 1/M for natural abundance molecules containing any number of C, H, N and/or O atoms are close to 5% relative because of the natural variability of the isotopic composition of carbon. So, we have developed two alternative measurement procedures with much lower theoretical uncertainties for a better evaluation of spectral accuracy in both single and triple quadrupole analysers. The first method is based on the measurement of the M + 2/M, M + 4/M + 2, etc. ratios for halogenated organic compounds containing either Cl or Br. The theoretical uncertainties for these ratios because of natural variability are in the order of 0.3 to 1.0% making them suitable for the evaluation of spectral accuracy with the additional advantage that there is no need to take into account other limitations such as cluster purity or poor mass resolution. This procedure was applied to the evaluation of a single quadrupole GC-MS instruments using natural abundance PCB and PBDE standards with satisfactory results. The second method can be applied to tandem instruments and takes advantage of the loss of two halogen atoms when PCB and PBDE standards are fragmented by Collision Induced Dissociation. Theoretical SRM transition ratios can be calculated as a pure combinatorial probability with theoretical uncertainties lower than 0.1%. By combining PCBs and PBDEs with different number of halogen atoms, a mass range from 100 to 700 u and abundance ratios from 0.1 to 10 can be evaluated. The use of penta-chlorinated PCBs and/or penta-brominated PBDEs is finally recommended for the evaluation of spectral accuracy of mass spectrometers with the EI source.

Abstract
A general method for the determination of the enrichment of isotopically labelled molecules by mass spectrometry (MS) is described. In contrast to other published procedures, the method described here takes into account and corrects for measurement errors such as the contribution at M - 1 due to loss of hydrogen or lack of spectral resolution and provides an uncertainty value for the determined enrichment. The general procedure requires the following steps: (1) evaluation of linearity in the mass spectrometer by injecting the natural abundance compound at different concentration levels, (2) determination of the purity of the mass cluster using the natural abundance analogue, (3) calculation of the theoretical isotope composition of the labelled compound using different tentative isotope enrichments, (4) calculation of 'convoluted' isotope distributions for the labelled compound taking into account the purity of the mass cluster determined with the natural abundance analogue and (5) comparison of the isotope distributions measured for the labelled compound with those calculated for different isotope enrichments using linear regression. The method was applied to a series of commercially available (13)C- and (2)H-labelled compounds and to a suite of singly (13)C-labelled β2-agonist prepared in-house both by gas chromatography (GC)-MS, GC-tandem MS (MS/MS) and liquid chromatography-MS/MS with satisfactory results. It was observed that the main uncertainty source for the isotope enrichment was the uncertainty in the purity of the measured cluster as determined with the natural abundance compound.

Abstract
Paper spray has been developed as a fast sampling ionization method for direct analysis of raw biological and chemical samples using mass spectrometry (MS). Quantitation of therapeutic drugs in blood samples at high accuracy has also been achieved using paper spray MS without traditional sample preparation or chromatographic separation. The paper spray ionization is a process integrated with a fast extraction of the analyte from the raw sample by a solvent, the transport of the extracted analytes on the paper, and a spray ionization at the tip of the paper substrate with a high voltage applied. In this study, the influence on the analytical performance by the solvent-substrate systems and the selection of the elution methods was investigated. The protein hemoglobin could be observed from fresh blood samples on silanized paper or from dried blood spots on silica-coated paper. The on-paper separation of the chemicals during the paper spray was characterized through the analysis of a mixture of the methyl violet 2B and methylene blue. The mode of applying the spray solvent was found to have a significant impact on the separation. The results in this study led to a better understanding of the analyte elution, on-paper separation, as well as the ionization processes of the paper spray. This study also help to establish a guideline for optimizing the analytical performance of paper spray for direct analysis of target analytes using mass spectrometry.
