Chimeric structural isomer fragments as cost-efficient internal standards for amino acid quantification by mass spectrometry.

Amino acid (AA) profiles from body fluids such as blood and urine are clinical indicators for diagnosing metabolic and hepatic diseases. Current quantitative methods, such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with isotopically labelled internal standards (ISs), are costly and technically demanding. This study proposes a cost-efficient alternative using structural isomers as ISs in a direct liquid infusion (DLI) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) approach. The method leverages chimeric spectra and fragment intensity ratios to quantify AAs, demonstrating high linearity and precision even with a 3D ion trap mass analyser. This approach offers a viable strategy for AA quantification in preventive medicine, particularly for screening metabolic diseases such as phenylketonuria, diabetes, and liver dysfunction.

Determination of D-amino acids labeled with fluorescent chiral reagents, R(-)- and S(+)-4-(3-isothiocyanatopyrrolidin-1-yl)-7-(N, N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles, in biological and food samples by liquid chromatography.

D-Amino acids in food and biological samples labeled with R(-)- and S(+)-4-(3-isothiocyanatopyrrolidin-1-yl)-7-(N, N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles (DBD-PyNCS) were separated by reversed-phase chromatography and detected fluorometrically at 550 nm (excitation at 460 nm). DL-Amino acids were efficiently labeled at 55 degrees C for 20 min in basic medium. The resulting thiocarbamoyl-amino acids were resolved by an isocratic elution using water:30% methanol in acetonitrile (72:28) containing 0.1% trifluoracetic acid as mobile phase for hydrophilic amino acids and gradient elutions using sodium acetate buffer (pH 5. 2)/acetonitrile as gradient solvent mixture for hydrophobic amino acids, respectively. The detection limits (S/N = 3) of DL-amino acids tested were in the range of 0.16-0.75 pmol. The proposed method was applied to determine the D-amino acid(s) in milk, cream, fermented dairy products (yogurt and yakult), tomato products (juice, puree, and catchup), fermented beverages (beer and red wine), and human urine. The existence of D-amino acid(s) was demonstrated in all the samples tested. Furthermore, the identification of the D-amino acid(s) was performed using both isomers of DBD-PyNCS and by on-line HPLC-electrospray ionization-MS.

Quantification of glutamine in proteins and peptides using enzymatic hydrolysis and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.

An enzymatic method for hydrolyzing bovine milk proteins was developed. Purified milk proteins (alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin, and beta-casein) were hydrolyzed in 0.1 M Hepes buffer (pH 7.5) containing pronase E, aminopeptidase M, and prolidase at 37 degrees C for 20 h. Free glutamine and other amino acids were derivatized with phenylisothiocyanate and separated using a C18 Pico-Tag column. Amino acids were eluted from the column with an aqueous sodium acetate-acetonitrile gradient with detection at 254 nm. Glutamine recoveries from hydrolyzed alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin, and beta-casein were 78 +/- 4, 98 +/- 3, and 101 +/- 3% of the theoretical values, respectively. The recoveries of most amino acids were comparable with those obtained using acid hydrolysis, except for the recoveries of proline and acidic amino acids. These peptide bonds appeared to be resistant to enzymatic hydrolysis and also to inhibit the hydrolysis of adjacent amino acids. Free glutamine was found to be very stable (97% recovery) under the enzymatic hydrolysis conditions.
