Ambient ionization mass spectrometry provides screening of selective androgen receptor modulators.

Ambient ionization mass spectrometry allows for analysis of samples in their natural state, i.e., with no sample pre-treatment.

Synthesis of [ N ] purine labeled cytokinin glycosides derived from zeatins and topolins with 9-β-d, 7-β-d-glucopyranosyl, or 9-β-d-ribofuranosyl group.

Synthesis of [ N ] purine labeled cytokinine glycosides derived from zeatins and topolins containing a 9-β-d, 7-β-d-glucopyranosyl, or 9-β-d-ribofuranosyl group is described. These N -substituted adenine derivatives are intended as internal analytic standards for phytohormone analysis. All labeled compounds were prepared from 6-chloro[ N ]purine (1).

Total synthesis of [N]-labelled C6-substituted purines from [N]-formamide-easy preparation of isotopically labelled cytokinins and derivatives.

Cytokinins (CKs) and their metabolites and derivatives are essential for cell division, plant growth regulation and development. They are typically found at minute concentrations in plant tissues containing very complicated biological matrices. Therefore, defined standards labelled with stable isotopes are required for precise metabolic profiling and quantification of CKs, as well as elucidation of CK biosynthesis in various plant species.

Microscale magnetic microparticle-based immunopurification of cytokinins from Arabidopsis root apex.

Cytokinins (CKs) are pivotal plant hormones that have crucial roles in plant growth and development. However, their isolation and quantification are usually challenging because of their extremely low levels in plant tissues (pmol g fresh weight). We have developed a simple microscale magnetic immunoaffinity-based method for selective one-step isolation of CKs from very small amounts of plant tissue (less than 0.
