  • 알킬페놀에톡실레이트 (APEO)는 주로 비이온성 계면활성제로 쓰이고 있으며 세제, 액체연료 및 농약에도 이용이 되고 있다. APEO 자체는 독성물질로 분류되어 있지 않지만, 그 대사생성물질인 단사슬 APEO, 알킬페놀 및 카르복실 유도체등은 폐수 또는 음용수를 염소처리하는 동안 mutagenic ring halogenated derivative를 생성한다. 이들 생성물들은 estrogenic effect를 나타내기 때문에 APEO를 제한 또는 규제하고 있는 추세이다. 본 연구에서는 APEO의 대사체로서 단사슬 APEO 인 4-nonylphenol-di-ethoxylate (NP2EO), 4-octylphenol-di-ethoxylate (OP2EO)를 분석하기 위해서 p-n-nonylphenol-di-ethoxylate-ring-$^{13}C_6$을 내부표준물질로 사용하여 HPLC/ESI/MS를 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석조건은 이온화 용매인 trifluoroacetic acid가 $10{\mu}M$이 되도록 각각 물과 메탄올에 첨가시켜 사용하였다. 물시료 1 L에 진한 황산을 이용하여 pH를 2이하로 조정한 후, 아세톤, 메탄올 및 물 (pH 2)로 활성화시킨 Sep-Pak $C_{18}$에 loading 시킨 후 아세톤으로 용출하여 시료용액으로 하였다. 이 방법으로 농도범위가 20 ~ 500 ng/L 내에서 검량선의 직선성은 r=0.999 (OP2EO)와 0.990 (NP2EO)였으며, 검출한계는 OP2EO는 20 ng/L, NP2EO는 50 ng/L 이었다. 정확도 및 정밀도는 85.8~122.1% 및 8.2~18.8 %로 좋은 결과를 나타냈다. 이 방법은 환경시료로부터 미량의 APEO를 분석하는데 사용될 수 있고, APEO 오염실태 조사에 응용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 혈장시료 중의 갑상선 호르몬을 고체상 추출법을 이용하여 추출한 후 HPLC/DAD/ESI-MS (high-performance liquid chromatograph/diode array detector/electrospray ionization-mass spectrometer)를 사용하여 분석하였다. 7종의 thyroid hormones의 HPLC 분리조건은 Hypersil ODS 컬럼(4.6 mm I.D., 250 mm length, particle size $5{\mu}m$)을 사용하고 ammonium formate buffer와 아세토나이트릴을 이동상으로 하여 기울기 용리한 결과 완전 분리가 가능하였으며, UV spectra 및 질량스펙트럼을 확인할 수 있었다. 고체상추출법에 의한 전처리 최적 조건을 조사한 결과 시료를 pH 3으로 한 후 C18 고체상을 사용하여 4 mL의 메탄올로 용리할 경우 회수율이 74.5-115.7%로 나타났다. HPLC/ESI-MS를 이용하여 20-500 ng/mL범위에서 검량선을 작성한 결과 $r^2$값은 0.9939-0.9978으로 나타났으며 검출한계는 20-50 ng/mL (38.1-162.8 pmol/mL)로 계산되었다. 정상인의 혈장에서 thyroxine의 정량이 가능하였으며 그 결과 50.98-112.97 ng/mL로 검출되었다.

  • Ambient ionization can be achieved by generating an electrospray directly from plant tissue ("leaf spray"). The resulting mass spectra are characteristic of ionizable phytochemicals in the plant material. By subtracting the leaf spray spectra recorded from the petals of two hibiscus species H. moscheutos and H. syriacus one gains rapid access to the metabolites that differ most in the two petals. One such compound was identified as the sambubioside of quercitin (or delphinidin) while others are known flavones. Major interest centered on a $C_{19}H_{29}NO_5$ compound that occurs only in the large H. moscheutos bloom. Attempts were made to characterize this compound by mass spectrometry alone as a test of such an approach. This showed that the compound is an alkaloid, assigned to the polyhydroxylated pyrrolidine class, and bound via a $C_3$ hydrocarbon unit to a monoterpene.

  • The aromatic hydrocarbons (AHs), which include benzene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and dioxin, are important chemical and environmental contaminants in industry that usually cause various diseases. Over the years, numerous studies have described and evaluated the adverse health effects induced by AHs. Currently, "Omics" technologies, transcriptomics and proteomics, have been applied in AH toxicity studies. Proteomics has been used to identify molecular mechanisms and biomarkers associated with global chemical toxicity. It could enhance our ability to characterize chemical-induced toxicities and to identify noninvasive biomarkers. The proteomic approach (e.g. 2-dimensional electrophoresis [2-DE]), can be used to observe changes in protein expression during chemical exposure with high sensitivity and specificity. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and electrospray ionization-quadrupole (ESI-Q)-TOF MS/MS are recognized as the most important protein identification tools. This review describes proteomic technologies and their application in the proteomic analysis of AH toxicity.

  • Lipids play important roles in biological systems; they store energy, play a structural role in the cell membrane, and are involved in cell growth, signal transduction, and apoptosis. Phospholipids (PLs) in particular have received attention in the medical and lipidomics research fields because of their involvement in human diseases such as diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis, and many cancers associated with lipid metabolic disorders. Here I review experimental strategies for PL analysis based on nanoflow liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (nLC-ESI-MSn). In particular, discussed are lipid extraction methods, nanoflow LC separation of PLs, effect of ionization modifiers on the ESI of PLs, influence of chain lengths and unsaturation degree of acyl chains of PLs on MS intensity, structural determination of the molecular structure of PLs and their oxidized products, and quantitative profiling of PLs from biological samples such as tissue, urine, and plasma in relation to cancer and coronary artery disease.

  • The fragmentation pattern of four hindered phenol antioxidants was investigated using ammonium and lithium ions as the additives for ionization. Due to different binding geometries and interactions, they underwent different characteristic fragmentation reactions providing useful complementary information for structural analysis of hindered phenol antioxidants. Ammonium ion adducts were fragmented successively until all t-butyl groups were lost in the form of isobutylene and allowed the estimation of the number of t-butyl groups present in the molecule. Lithium ion adducts produced fragment ions from major backbone cleavage, on the other hand, which provide more crucial information for the identification of detailed backbone structure.

  • Oxidative DNA damage has been associated with many disease. Quantation of DNA adducts is considered to be a useful biomarker of oxidative DNA damage because its formation can also be induced by oxidative stress. Extensive efforts have been taken to identify the analytical methods for minimizing the artifactual formation of oxidative DNA damage. We have done direct analysis of DNA adducts using LC/ESI-MS without urine sample extraction. (omitted)
