Why Choose a Multi-Analyte Method? 

 

In regulatory laboratories, where potentially hundreds of different types of sample and active ingredients can be evaluated every year, a unique set of conditions provided by agricultural product manufacturers in their regulatory methods are faced with the decision to purchase a new and different analytical column or not follow the enforcement method provided by the manufacturer.  Because of this, a multi-analyte method has been developed at the Irish Department of Agriculture, Food and The Marine, contributed to by the regulatory laboratories in Belgium and the Czech Republic, analyzing more than 70 active ingredients using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and more than 35 active ingredients by ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC).  The method has been designed for use by quality control laboratories and is suitable for determining a range of active substances in a wider range of formulated products as well as the technical AI itself. The method has been validated for linearity, precision, accuracy, and specificity for seven technical active ingredients as defined by FMC Corporation.  The method and results will be discussed.

Data Quantity and Quality in High Throughput Synthesis

 

High throughput experimentation (HTE) is a crucial workflow for the collection of large datasets on chemical reactivity, but key to this is robust, flexible, and adaptable analysis. Selection and development of appropriate methods both limits and guides what reactions can be studied and what information about desired and undesired reactivity can be obtained. At the High Throughput Experimentation Center at the University of Delaware, we employ GC, SFC, and reverse phase LC separations to collect datasets for reaction optimization, development, and scope evaluation. This talk will discuss our strategies for increasing the ease and speed of analysis, while ensuring robust and high-quality analysis, through the use of multiple separation and detection modes.

Chemical Derivatization with Capillary LC-MS: Method Development for High Sensitivity Metabolomics

 

A major impediment to metabolomics unleashing its full potential is the complexity of the data which is cluttered with impurities. We use chemical tags to react with a variety of metabolites which confer hydrophobicity for improved LC and chargeability to improve MS response. Ultimately these tags increase signal and through sample stacking allow analysis of ultra-small samples. The first set of reagents allows for pre-concentrating all metabolites and minimal degeneracy/salt adduction. The second set of tags are neucode based tags for high resolution mass spectrometry capable of analyzing up to 96 samples simultaneously. The last set of tags are designed to fragments across the carbon-carbon backbone to allow identification of new metabolites using fragmentation modeling. We leverage the increase in sensitivity to analyze single islets of Langerhans. Defects in islet metabolism are linked to impaired insulin secretion and type 2 diabetes.
