Differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) is capable of separating molecules based on their size and shape. When coupled to mass spectrometry (MS), DMS reduces chemical background and enhances signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio. Flow injection analysis (FIA) is a technique used to introduce samples into the source of the DMS-MS platform. Here we describe the application of FIA-DMS-MS/MS for the analysis of urinary acylcarnitine species. More than 20 acylcarnitine species can be detected and quantified during a single FIA-DMS-MS/MS acquisition.

Relationship Between the Salivary Microbiome and Oral Malodor Metabolites in Older Thai Individuals with Periodontitis and the Cytotoxic Effects of Malodor Compounds on Human Oral Squamous Carcinoma (HSC-4) Cells.

: Halitosis is primarily caused by the activity of oral microorganisms. In this study, we employed metagenomic sequencing and metabolomic approaches to investigate the differences in salivary microbiota and metabolite profiles between individuals with halitosis and periodontitis and healthy controls. Additionally, we expanded the study to examine how oral malodorous compounds interact with human oral squamous carcinoma (HSC-4) cells.

The system integrates differential ion mobility (DMS) with acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS), termed DAEMS, enabling the simultaneous quantitation of structural isomers that are the sub-strates and products of isomerase mediated reactions in intermediary metabolism. We demonstrate this potential by comparing DAEMS to a luminescence assay for the isoform of phosphoglycerate mutase (iPGM) distinctively present in pathogens offering an opportunity as a drug target for a variety of microbial and parasite borne diseases.

Tibetan donkeys inhabit the harsh environment of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Research on serum metabolites related to their high-altitude adaptation is limited compared to other livestock. We used liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to analyze serum samples from healthy adult donkeys in Shigatse, Changdu, and Dezhou to evaluate the effects of high altitudes on serum metabolites.

Background/objectives: Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), extensively studied in terrestrial plants with global emissions around 1 PgC yr, are also produced by marine organisms. However, benthic species, especially seagrasses, are understudied despite their global distribution (177,000-600,000 km). This study aims to examine BVOC emissions from key Mediterranean seagrass species (, , , and ) in marine and coastal lagoon environments.

A dysregulated metabolism has been studied as a key aspect of the COVID-19 pathophysiology, but its longitudinal progression in severe cases remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate metabolic dysregulation over time in patients with severe COVID-19 requiring mechanical ventilation (MV). In this single-center, prospective, observational study, we obtained 236 serum samples from 118 adult patients on MV in an ICU.
