The choices of matrices and protocols for sample deposition are critical factors, which impact each other in the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI). Previous reports on MALDI MS matrices have only compared their performances in terms of their MS signal intensities and provided optical microphotos or MALDI MS images of sample spots but typically lacked quantitative evaluation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a multivariate model to evaluate the performance of different combinations of matrices and sample protocols.

A comprehensive strategy, including spectroscopic, molecular simulation, proteomics, and bioinformatics techniques, was employed to investigate a novel triazole, 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole, its interactions with high-abundance blood proteins, and identification of low-abundance proteins. The binding constants and thermodynamic parameters of the triazole to two high-abundance blood globular proteins, human serum albumin, and human immunoglobulin G (HIgG), were obtained by spectroscopic techniques and computational chemistry. The two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in combination with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry was employed to isolate and identify differentially expressed low-abundance proteins in human blood serum samples following exposure to the triazole.

Rheology modifiers (RMs) are polymeric molecules providing rheological control of formulations, which are important in product application, shelf-life, and aesthetic perception. Bio-derived polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based RMs thicken formulations through nonionic-associative thickening where at least two hydrophobic end groups from a RM molecule interact with other hydrophobic groups of other RM molecules or ingredients in the formulation to form an associative network. We report a comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) separation of partly bio-derived PEG-based RMs in size exclusion chromatography (SEC) × reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) mode for the separation of RM components based on both molecular weight distribution and end group hydrophobe distribution.

The distribution and bioaccumulation of environmental pollutants are essential to understanding their toxicological mechanism. However, achieving spatial resolution at the subtissue level is still challenging. Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent environmental pollutant with widespread occurrence.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is widely used across various industries owing to its versatility and favorable properties, including application in beverage bottles, food containers, textile fibers, engineering resins, films, and sheets. However, polymer materials are susceptible to degradation from factors such as light, oxygen, and heat. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the structural changes that occur during degradation and the extent of these changes.
