Consumer concerns regarding food nutrition and quality are becoming increasingly prevalent. High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS)-based metabolomics stands as a cutting-edge and widely embraced technique in the realm of food component analysis and detection. It boasts the capability to identify character metabolites at exceedingly low abundances, which remain undetectable by conventional platforms. It can also enable real-time monitoring of the flux of targeted compounds in metabolic synthesis and decomposition. With the emergence of artificial intelligence and machine learning, it has become more convenient to process the vast data sets of metabolomics and identify biomarkers. The review summarizes the latest applications of HRMS-based metabolomics platforms in traditional foods, novel foods, and pharmaceutical-food homologous matrices. It compares the suitability of HRMS to nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in metabolomics across three dimensions and discusses the principles and application scenarios of various mass spectrometry technologies.

Background: Persistent and mobile organic compounds (PMOC) are of great concern for water quality and human health. The recent improvement and availability of high-resolution mass spectrometry in combination with liquid chromatography have widely expanded the potential of analytical workflows for their detection and quantitation in water. Given their high polarity, the detection of some PMOC requires alternative techniques to reversed-phase chromatography, such as hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC).

MOE Key Laboratory of Pollution Processes and Environmental Criteria, College of Environmental Science and Engineering, Nankai University, Tianjin 300350, China.

The occurrence and distribution of synthetic phenolic antioxidants (SPAs) originating from mulch film in farmland soils, along with their transformation characteristics and pathways, remain largely unknown. This study is the first to investigate nineteen SPAs and four transformation products (TPs) in farmland soils across China. In film-mulching soils, concentrations of SPAs (median, range: 83.

Electronic address:

Glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide widely used in agriculture, and its overexposure poses significant health and environmental risks. Herein, a novel Cu-coordinated fluorescent sensing system (HYBC-Cu system) based on acylhydrazone groups was designed, capable of glyphosate-specific recognition. The HYBC-Cu system was constructed with simple steps, with the advantages of short recognition time (< 1 min), good specificity, anti-interference, and excellent sensitivity (LOD = 95 nM).

While many chemicals are regulated and routinely monitored in drinking water, they represent just a portion of all contaminants that may be present. Typical drinking water analyses involve sampling one liter or less of water, which could lead to trace level contaminants going undetected. In this study, a method was developed for using point-of-use activated carbon block drinking water filters as sampling devices.

Analysis of the spatial distribution of metabolites in Aloe vera leaves by mass spectrometry imaging and UHPLC-UHRMS.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Polymers and Biopolymers, Faculty of Chemistry, Rzeszów University of Technology, 6 Powstańców Warszawy Ave., Rzeszów, 35-959, Poland.

This study presents an investigation of the chemical composition of Aloe vera leaf tissue with a focus on the spatial distribution of compounds. The composition was studied using two mass spectrometry imaging techniques: silver-109 nanoparticles assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (AgNPs-LDI-MSI) and laser ablation-remote atmospheric pressure photoionization/chemical ionization mass spectrometry imaging (LARAPPI/CI-MSI) and the identification was aided by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-UHRMS) analysis. The results showed an abundance of phenolic compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a beneficial food additive and food packaging material.
