CP-93,393 is a drug candidate at Pfizer. Flow-injection analysis-mass spectrometry (FIA-MS) was used to monitor reaction completion for CP-93,393 reaction mixtures. FIA-MS provides essentially instantaneous results, is relatively simple to operate, and is a universal system that can be used to monitor any reaction as long as the product has a molecular weight that differs from the molecular weights...
Normal phase liquid chromatography combined with particle beam mass spectrometry has been applied to the analysis of fluconazole, an anti-fungal agent, [2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-1,3-bis(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-propan-2-ol] and a related intermediate, UK-51060 [2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-1-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-ethan-2-one]. Electron ionisation and chemical ionisation have been investigated in combination...
Mass spectrometry was used to detect transfer of deuterium from labeled reagents to arsines following hydride-generation reactions. The arsine gases liberated from the reactions of arsenite, arsenate, methylarsonic acid, and dimethylarsinic acid with HCl and NaBD 4 in H 2 O, or with DCl and NaBH 4 in D 2 O, were examined. Differences in the mode of deuterium incorporation...
A study of liquid chromatography/electrospray/mass spectrometry (LC/ES/MS) for the determination of methylamphetamine and related compounds (amphetamine, ephedrine, phenylpropanolamine) in human urine was undertaken. We assessed the effect of collision induced dissociation (CID) spectra generated by varying exit voltage of capillary and skimmer. The responses of ES/MS in different mobile phase and...
The speciation of inorganic chromium in environmental samples is required for accurate assessment of pollution levels. Of the two chromium oxidation states, Cr (VI) is a known carcinogen, while Cr (III) is an essential element. Total chromium measurement cannot be used to determine actual environmental impact due to the considerable difference in toxicity of the two elemental forms. An automated liquid...
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) were thermally decomposed at 200-500 o C, and the reaction products measured by supersonic jet/multiphoton ionization/mass spectrometry. No precursor molecules of dioxins, such as chlorobenzene, were observed from PVC, although benzene was produced as one of the major components. On the other hand, a large peak corresponding...
Determination of zinc involved spiking with 68 Zn enriched solution, digestion by HNO 3 +H 2 O 2 in microwave decomposition unit, off-line separation of zinc on Chelex-100 column and measurement of ( 64 Zn+ 66 Zn)/ 68 Zn isotope ratio on ICP-MS spectrometer with a quadrupole mass filter. After optimization of standard operation...
ICP-mass spectrometer Perkin Elmer Elan 6000 was adapted for ETV analysis by coupling with GBC GF 3000 graphite furnace atomiser. Both instruments were connected by a 25 cm long PTFE tubing of 6 mm i.d. and a custom-made interface. The apparatus was applied to nickel determination using isotope dilution technique. The efficiency of analyte transfer through the interface was approximately 20%, however...
Mass spectrometry coupled with a pyrolysis inlet system (Pyr-ms) is compared with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the determination of vancomycin and its crystal degradation products (CDP-Is) in human serum. Quantitative analysis of Pyr-ms was performed by selected ion monitoring (SIM) method at 108 mass:charge (m/z) of pyrolysis product of vancomycin. 3-Nitroaniline (138 m/z) was...
A series of derivatisation reactions between p-t-butyl calix[4]arene and ethyl bromoacetate were carried out in order to prepare 1,3 diester substituted calix[4]arene. Mass spectral data, obtained from direct injection of samples, indicated that the reactions were rich in the desired product. Since the ultra violet (UV) spectra of the desired product and possible impurities are very similar, liquid...
A new method for rapid sample digestion and efficient chemical separation of Hf and REE from rock samples for precise isotopic analysis is presented. Samples are digested by fusion in the presence of a lithium borate flux at 1100 o C and dissolved whilst molten in dilute nitric or hydrochloric acid. Prior to chemical separation using ion exchange techniques, Li and B from the flux material...
Polyoxyethyleneglycerol triricinoleate 35 (Cremophor EL: CrEL) is a solubilization agent for hydrophobic drugs. Recently, CrEL has shown some side effects in patients. In the present work, we introduce pyrolysis-mass spectrometry (Py-MS) for the determination of CrEL in drugs and blood samples. Mass to charge (m/z) values of 89 and 138 of CrEL and 3-nitroaniline (as internal standard), respectively,...
The compound 3-amino-4-hydroxyphenylarsonic acid (3-amino-HPAA) reacts with smectite to form a soluble azobenzene arsonic acid compound. This reaction is of particular interest because it provides a possible mechanism for the formation of a new type of arsenic compound in natural water systems. 3-Amino-HPAA is a degradation product excreted by chickens that are fed rations amended with roxarsone....
We report analytical informations on the quantification of cefaclor (CCL), a β-lactam antibiotic by three detection methods. The methods were based on the chemical derivatization of the drug with 4-(2'-cyanoisoindolyl)phenylisothiocyanate (CIPIC) under the reaction conditions with heating at 80 o C for 7 min in the presence of pyridine. The CIPIC reagent could react with the primary amino...
Forward selection improved radial basis function (RBF) network was applied to bacterial classification based on the data obtained by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The classification of each bacterium cultured at different time was discussed and the effect of parameters of the RBF network was investigated. The new method involves forward...
The determination of five volatile organochlorine compounds, VOX (chloroform, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethene and tetrachloroethene) in raw landfill leachates and biologically cleansed leachates by GC-MS is investigated. Two extraction and preconcentration procedures were evaluated for recovery of such analies from the samples, including static headspace (HS) and solid...
