To monitor per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in food contact materials (FCMs), an LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous detection of 35 PFAS was developed and validated in paper and plastic products. Chromatographic and mass spectrometry parameters, extraction solvents, matrix effects in details were studied. The impact of matrix effects on PFAS concentration was analyzed, revealing that the matrix enhancement effect was more significant for some PFAS with low concentrations. In order to eliminate the matrix effect and enhance detection accuracy, a straightforward pretreatment method combining methanol ultrasonic extraction with dispersive solid-phase extraction (d-SPE) was established. PFHpA, PFDA, PFTriDA, PFTeDA, PF-3,7-DMOA, HFPO-DA, PFHxS, PFHpS, PFOS, 4:2 FTS, 6:2 FTS, 8:2 FTS, 10:2 FTS, and 6:2 diPAP required further d-SPE extraction with PSA, and other substances could be directly extracted by methanol ultrasonic treatment. The recoveries of the established method for all compounds ranged from 62.40 to 135.80%, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.15% to 16.81%. The limit of quantitation was between 0.005 and 0.02 mg·kg −1 . The method was applied to detect PFAS in 119 FCMs, resulting in the identification of 15 PFAS.

The inappropriate use of H2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) in functional foods (FFs) and food-medicine homology materials (FMHs) designed to enhance gastrointestinal function (IGF) presents health risks due to potential adverse effects. In this study, an analytical method that integrates Captiva EMR-Lipid (CEL) solid-phase extraction (SPE) with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has been developed for the detection of H2RAs (nizatidine, famotidine, cimetidine, ranitidine, and lafutidine) in these products. Through the optimization of CEL-SPE parameters, such as using 200 mg of sorbent and eluting with ACN/water (80/20, v/v), the recovery rates of H2RAs in IGF-FF and IGF-FMH ranged from 87.4 % to 94.6 % and 90.2 % to 97.1 %, respectively. The assessment of matrix effects revealed that the five H2RAs exhibit matrix suppression, necessitating the construction of matrix-matched standard curves with correlation coefficients (r 2 ) exceeding 0.9991. The detection limits ranged from 0.4 to 0.8 μg·kg −1 and the quantification limits ranged from 1.3 to 2.7 μg·kg −1 , with recovery rates spanning from 85.4 % to 97.1 % and relative standard deviations ≤ 15 %. The successful development of this technique not only helps safeguard consumer health but also provides scientific basis and technical support for market supervision, thereby preventing and addressing food safety risks.

3,3′,5-Triiodothyronine (T3) plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and evaluation of thyroid diseases. The current reference measurement procedure (RMP) has been in place for 20 years and is widely adopted by reference laboratories around the world. To enhance the performance of the RMP, we developed and validated a simplified, SI-traceable candidate RMP specifically targeting serum total T3 (TT3) using isotope dilution-liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC–MS/MS). Specifically, T3 reference material was employed as the standard. Compared to the RMP, our method incorporates a simplified serum cleanup process involving protein precipitation and nitrogen drying. The method validation followed ISO guidelines for measurement uncertainty assessment. Our results indicated that there was no significant conversion of T4 into metabolites during the serum pretreatment. The lower limit of the measuring interval was determined to be 0.077 nmol/L, and the regression model was linear across a range of 0.016 to 13.086 nmol/L. The imprecision of intra-assays ranged from 0.1 to 1.9%, while inter-assay imprecision ranged from 0.5 to 1.2%. The bias observed when analyzing SRM971 was between − 0.34 and − 1.65%. This candidate RMP demonstrated excellent agreement with the RMPs developed by RELA activity, showing a mean bias falling within the educational mean ratio (6%). The measurement uncertainties were 0.022 nmol/L for RELA2023A and 0.120 nmol/L for RELA2023B. In conclusion, the developed candidate RMP is traceable, reliable, and easy to operate, showing promising potential for the development of serum reference materials and the standardization of routine assays.

Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), a crucial steroid hormone for adrenal function and pubertal development, is highly associated with related diseases. This study aims to develop and validate an isotope dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC–MS/MS)-based candidate reference measurement procedure (cRMP) for quantifying serum DHEAS. Serum samples were prepared by protein precipitation with acetonitrile and separated on a reversed phase column. Assay validation was conducted under the guidance of standard documents, including C62-A, EP6-A, EP10-A3, and C50-P endorsed by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). The cRMP was established and proven to be highly specific without significant matrix effect and able to accurately quantify DHEAS in human serum. The intra-assay and inter-assay imprecision ranged from < 0.1 to 1.0% and from 1.0 to 1.1%, respectively. Trueness was assessed by recovery rate from 99.6 to 101.2%. The limit of detection (LoD) was 0.270 nmol/L, and the lower limit of the measuring interval (LLMI) was 12.1 nmol/L. A linear correlation ranged from 7.60 to 41 858 nmol/L was observed with a correlation coefficient > 0.999. R 2 value of linear regression analysis between this method and clinical immunoassays was ≥ 0.990. The relative expanded uncertainty was 1.5%–2.5% over the concentration range of 12.1–33 043 nmol/L. This study developed an ID-LC–MS/MS-based cRMP, which provided high specificity, trueness, and precision for serum DHEAS quantification, contributing to the DHEAS measurement standardization and traceability.

Comprehensive characterization of exosomal phospholipids is essential for understanding cancer-associated metabolic alterations and discovering potential biomarkers, but remains challenging due to their extensive structural diversity and the limited selectivity and coverage of conventional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) approaches. In this study, an ionic liquid-functionalized styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer brush stationary phase (Sil-BHHICl) was developed and integrated into an offline two-dimensional (2D) LC-MS/MS platform for comprehensive exosomal phospholipid profiling. The Sil-BHHICl stationary phase exhibited a hydrophilic interaction/reversed-phase mixed-mode retention mechanism and provided enhanced selectivity toward phospholipids, enabling efficient separation at both the phospholipid-class and molecular-species levels. The developed analytical platform enabled comprehensive profiling of plasma-derived exosomal phospholipids, resulting in the identification of 274 molecular species belonging to 10 phospholipid classes. Lipidomic analysis of plasma exosomes from breast cancer patients and healthy controls revealed distinct phospholipid alterations associated with breast cancer and identified five candidate biomarkers, among which LysoPC-O (16:0) exhibited the strongest discriminatory ability. Pathway enrichment analysis further indicated that the altered phospholipids were predominantly associated with glycerophospholipid metabolism, suggesting extensive lipid metabolic remodeling in breast cancer. Overall, this study establishes a mixed-mode chromatographic platform for high-coverage exosomal phospholipid profiling and demonstrates its potential for lipidomics-based biomarker discovery and investigation of disease-associated metabolic alterations.

Background Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of tacrolimus requires accurate, high-throughput methods, but conventional liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is limited by lengthy run times and complex sample preparation. Methods We developed a chromatography-free assay for quantification of tacrolimus in whole blood by integrating cold-induced phase separation with acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS). This workflow only requires less than 10 μL of whole blood, eliminates centrifugation, and enables direct nanoliter-scale injection into the mass spectrometer. The AEMS assay performance was validated in accordance with CLSI C62-A and ICH M10 guidelines using 62 patient samples and matrix-matched calibrators, demonstrating its suitability for high-throughput therapeutic drug monitoring. Results The AEMS assay exhibited excellent linearity (0.5–50 μg/L; R 2 = 0.9987), with a lower limit of quantification of 0.5 μg/L, which was well below clinically relevant trough concentrations. Accuracy (93.3%–100.1%) and precision (intra-day RSD: 3.7%–11.3%; inter-day RSD: 2.3%–12.4%) met regulatory acceptance criteria. Results showed strong concordance with routine LC-MS/MS (Spearman ρ = 0.972; Passing–Bablok slope = 1.100 [95% CI: 1.026–1.177]). The total analysis cycle time was less than 3 s per sample, enabling a throughput exceeding 1000 samples per hour theoretically. Conclusion This study establishes the first chromatography-free mass spectrometry platform validated for clinical TDM of TAC. By integrating ultra-high throughput capability, minimal sample consumption, and robust analytical performance, the AEMS workflow offers a transformative analytical solution for high-demand clinical environments, including transplant centers and pediatric monitoring settings.

Deoxythioguanosine (dTG), incorporated into DNA as DNA-TG, is considered a more relevant thiopurine metabolite than erythrocyte thioguanine nucleotides, as erythrocytes are not the drug target. We established a simple and sensitive liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method to detect dTG in human blood nucleated cell DNA and validated its clinical applicability in Chinese patients with inflammatory bowel disease to improve individualized thiopurine treatment. dTG was released from 1 μg DNA in a single hydrolysis step, separated by the X-Terra RP18 column and quantified by tandem mass spectrometry with 2′- Deoxyguanosine-13C,15N2 as the internal standard. The calibration curve covered eight concentration levels (0.125–25 ng/mL) with the correlation coefficients r2 ≥ 0.99. The intra- and inter-assay variability was achieved less than 9.9%. This method was employed in a study where a total of 125 inflammatory bowel disease patients with a median DNA-TG level of 279.7 fmol/μg DNA (interquartile range 183.5 ~ 410.6 fmol/μg DNA). Nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X-type motif 15 variant carriers (*2, *3, *5, *6) showed significantly higher DNA-TG/dose and DNA-TG/erythrocyte thioguanine nucleotides ratios than wild-type patients (P = 0.0023, P = 0.0001). In summary, this method was simple and stable to detect dTG in DNA, which may act as a promising biomarker predicting the toxicity and efficacy in patients treated with thiopurine.

Excessive intake bioamines is harmful to human health, and thus the development of simple, rapid and efficient detection method of bioamines in food is urgent. Herein, an unprecedented method based on a commercial molecular sieve has been developed for the determination of four bioamines (cadaverine, tyramine, histamine and tryptamine) in fruit wines by dispersive solid phase microextraction (D-μSPE) coupled to liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The extraction process of ultra-stable Y-type molecular sieve (USY) on bioamines belongs to physisorption, and the adsorption pattern is found in good accord with the Langmuir isotherm model. Theoretical and experimental analyses are further used to explore their binding energies, binding constants, and the maximum adsorption capacity. It is found that the adsorption is driven mainly by hydrogen bonds between USY and bioamines and water molecules. Moreover, the extraction efficiency is dependent on the binding constants and the maximum adsorption capacity of USY. The optimization of adsorption-desorption process involves the USY amount, extraction time, desorption solvent, desorption time, desorption number and cyclic usage number of USY. Under the optimum conditions, the limits of detection and quantification were found in the range of 0.2–2.5 μg L −1 and 0.6–8 μg L −1 with intra-day and inter-day precision and recoveries in a fruit wine in the range of 1.3 %–7.9 % and 91 %–104 %, respectively. Owing to the efficient enrichment and edulcoration functions of USY, the method shows negligible matrix effect and is simple, rapid, and has the potential to apply in routine work.

Reliable methods for the determination of tryptophan and its metabolites are vital to the monitoring of biochemical states during the initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease. In the present study, a single-run liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of tryptophan (Trp) and its metabolites, including kynurenine (Kyn), kynurenic acid (KA), xanthurenic acid (XA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), in human plasma. The plasma samples were prepared using a protein precipitation approach, and the chromatographic separation was performed by gradient elution on a C 18 column within a total analysis time of 3.5 min. The calibration ranges were 40–20,000 ng/mL for Trp, 4–2000 ng/mL for Kyn, 0.2–100 ng/mL for KA, 0.4–200 ng/mL for XA and 1–500 ng/mL for 5-HT, and the precision and accuracy were acceptable. The evaluation of recovery and internal standard-normalized matrix effect proved that the sample preparation approach was effective and the matrix effect could be negligible. The newly developed method was successfully applied to the analysis of plasma samples from healthy individuals and myocardial infarction patients. The findings suggested that the plasma concentrations of Trp, Kyn, 5-HT as well as the concentration ratios of Kyn/Trp and Trp/5-HT might serve as biomarkers for the monitoring of acute myocardial infarction.

Introduction Milbemycin oxime (MBO) and praziquantel (PZQ) have a broad spectrum of biological activity and are commonly used to treat the parasitic infection in the veterinary clinic. In this study, a fast and efficient LC-MS/MS method was established and validated for the simultaneous determination of MBO, PZQ, cis-4-hydroxylated-PZQ (C-4-OH-PZQ) and trans-4-hydroxylated-PZQ (T-4-OH-PZQ) and in cat plasma. Methods Extraction of analytes and internal standards from cat plasma by acetonitrile protein precipitation, allows rapid processing of large batches of samples. MBO, PZQ, C-4-OH-PZQ, T-4-OH-PZQ, and internal standard (IS) were eluted for 13.5 min on a C 18 column with a 0.1% formic acid water/acetonitrile mixture as the mobile phase. Results Results showed that the method had good precision, accuracy, recovery, and linearity. The linearity range was 2.5–250 ng/mL for MBO, and 10–1000 ng/mL for PZQ, C-4-OH-PZQ, and T-4-OH-PZQ. The intra-day and inter-day precision CV values of the tested components were within 15%. The extraction recoveries of the four components ranged from 98.09% to 107.46%. The analytes in plasma remained stable for 6 h at room temperature, 26 h in the autosampler (4 °C), after freeze–thaw (−20°C) cycles, and 60 days in a −20°C freezer. Method sensitivity sufficed for assessing pharmacokinetic parameters of MBO, PZQ, C-4-OH-PZQ, and T-4-OH-PZQ in plasma samples with LLOQ of 2.5 ng/mL for MBO and 10 ng/mL for PZQ, C-4-OH-PZQ, and T-4-OH-PZQ. Conclusion In this study, a selective and sensitive LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous quantification of MBO, PZQ, C-4-OH-PZQ, and T-4-OH-PZQ in cat plasma was developed and validated.This method had been successfully applied to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of MBO, PZQ, C-4-OH-PZQ, and T-4-OH-PZQ after a single oral administration of 8 mg MBO and 20 mg PZQ in cats.
