In this communication, the structural analysis of six synthetic O-Linked amphiphilic cholesteryl polyethoxy neoglycolipids containing N-acetyl-D-glucosamine was performed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in the positive ion mode, with a QqTOF-MS/MS hybrid instrument. The MS/MS analyses provided evidence for the "in situ" formation, in the collision cell of the tandem mass spectrometer, of an unexpected and unique [C-glycoside]+ product ion, resulting from an ion-molecule reaction between the N-acetyl-D-glucosamine oxonium ion and the neutral cholesta-3,5-diene molecule. Quasi MS3 analysis of this ion resulted in the dissociation of the precursor [C-glycoside]+ ion, which produced the expected third generation N-acetyl-D-glucosamine oxonium and the protonated cholesta-3,5-diene product ions.

Desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry imaging (DESI-MSI) provides direct analytical readouts of small molecules that can be used to characterize the metabolic phenotypes of genetically engineered bacteria. In an effort to accelerate the time frame associated with the screening of mutant libraries, we have developed a high-throughput DESI-MSI analytical workflow implementing a single raster line-scan strategy that facilitates the collection of location-resolved molecular information from engineered strains on a subminute time scale. Evaluation of this "Fast-Pass" DESI-MSI phenotyping workflow on analytical standards demonstrated the capability of acquiring full metabolic profiling information with a throughput of ∼40 s per sample.

A simple and efficient validated assay for quantifying 21-deoxycortisol (21-DOC), 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), cortisol, and cortisone in human plasma has been developed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Analysis of plasma samples were performed on Atlantis dC18 (3 m) column using a mobile phase of 20.0 mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile (50:50, : ) that was delivered at isocratic flow rate 0.

The recent unauthorization of antiviral drugs in food-producing animals according to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/1644 have increased the need for food control laboratories to develop analytical methods and perform official controls. In this work, a simple and fast analytical methodology was developed for the simultaneous determination of 21 antiviral drugs in chicken muscle and liver by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Chromatographic separation was achieved by an HILIC BEH amide column; followed by detection with a electrospray ionization source in positive and negative modes.

A simple, fast, sample-saving, and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was established with a linear range adjusted by in-source collision-induced dissociation. Notably, this could simultaneously determine busulfan, fludarabine, phenytoin, and posaconazole in plasma from children, each having unique physical and chemical properties. The procedure necessitated only 20 μL of plasma and involved a simple protein precipitation process.
