Quadrupole secondary ion mass spectrometry (qSIMS) characterization of a metallized polypropylene film used in the manufacturing of capacitors has been performed. Ar(+) primary ions were used to preserve the oxidation state of the surface. The sample exhibits an incomplete metallization that made it difficult to determine the exact location of the metal-polymer interface due to the simultaneous contribution of ions with identical m/z values from the metallic and the polymer layers. Energy filtering by means of a 45 degrees electrostatic analyzer allowed resolution of the metal-polymer interface by selecting a suitable kinetic energy corresponding to the ions generated in the metallized layer but not from the polymer. Under these conditions, selective analyses of isobaric interferences such as (27)Al(+) and (27)C(2)H(3) (+) or (43)AlO(+) and (43)C(3)H(7) (+) have been successfully performed.

In this study, the chemical components of Panacis Japonici Rhizoma extract and absorbed components in rats were identified by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole exactive orbitrap mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS). The separation was performed by gradient elution on Waters UPLC BEH C_(18) column(2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.

The simultaneous determination of pentacyclic triterpenoids, which are secondary metabolites in plants, is difficult because of the similarity in structure and minimal differences in polarity. In this study, we established a simple and sensitive method for the simultaneous determination of pentacyclic triterpenoids based on liquid chromatography-single-quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS) using a C30 column. The established method completely separated 13 pentacyclic triterpenoids based on their different retention times.

Introduction: Pharmacological studies have shown that the rhizome of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. (Compositae), commonly known as atractylodes macrocephala rhizome (AMR), can modulate immunity. Nevertheless, its resources have been largely depleted, and the pharmacological activity of artificial AMR is relatively modest.

Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are widespread in the environment and food, posing ingestion risks through various pathways. However, their transformation in human body fluids (SBFs), especially the formation of secondary nanoparticles (NPs), is not well understood due to inadequate quantification methods. This study proposed a robust method for quantifying eight common MNPs using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) for pretreatment and pyrolysis gas chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (Py-GC-QTOF-MS) for analysis.

Aims: Potato common scab (CS), caused by pathogenic Streptomyces, is a devastating disease affecting potato crops worldwide. Antagonistic microorganisms have been used as biological control agents to inhibit Streptomyces scabies and reduce the use of synthetic pesticides. However, identifying beneficial microorganisms for controlling CS remains undetermined.
