"Top-down" proteomics analyzes intact proteins and identifies proteoforms by their mass as well the observed fragmentation pattern in tandem spectrometry (MS/MS) experiments. Recently, hybrid ion mobility spectrometry–mass (IM/MS) methods have gained traction for top-down experiments, either allowing analysis of individual isomers or alternatively improving signal/noise dynamic range fragment assignment. We recently described construction a tandem-trapped spectrometer/mass spectrometer (tandem-TIMS/MS) coupled with an ultraviolet (UV) laser demonstrated proof-of-principle UV photodissociation (UVPD) at 2–3 mbar. The present work builds on this exploration method that couples tandem-TIMS/MS UVPD parallel-accumulation serial (PASEF) MS/MS analysis. first survey types structures UVPD-specific ions generated mbar pressure regime our instrument. Notably, we observe UVPD-induced multiple conformations differ from those produced absence irradiation. Subsequently, discuss how spectra lend themselves ideally probability-based scoring developed bottom-up field ability to record automated PASEF-MS/MS resolves ambiguities assignment ions. Finally, describe coupling workflows native protein

Environmental reclamation of Canada's oil sands tailings ponds is among the single largest water treatment challenges globally. The toxicity process-affected (OSPW) has been associated with its dissolved organics, a complex mixture naphthenic acid fraction components (NAFCs). Here, we evaluated solar buoyant photocatalysts (BPCs) as passive advanced oxidation process (P-AOP) for OSPW remediation. Photocatalysis fully degraded acids (NAs) and extractable organics (AEO) in 3 different samples. However, classical NAs AEO, traditionally considered principal toxicants OSPW, were not correlated herein. Instead, nontarget petroleomic analysis revealed that low-polarity organosulfur compounds, composing <10% total apparently accounted majority waters' to fish, described by model tissue partitioning. These findings have implications release, which less extensive but more selective may be required than previously expected.

The current state-of-the-art analysis techniques for petroleum fractions has progressed substantially during the past decade. This helped to further improve lumping procedures and modeling approaches of these complex systems. Recent advances in gas chromatography (GC), GC-field ionization mass spectrometry (GC-FIMS), comprehensive (GC×GC) have made it possible determine compositions with up 45 carbon atoms some cases C80. combination MS other selective detectors reversed-phase column combinations quantify even traces heteroatomic compounds hydrocarbon matrices. Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR-MS), combined GC×GC lighter part, pushed characterization larger macromolecules particular asphaltenes. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) is also used widely this purpose but disadvantage that quantification not obvious. development more detailed remained unnoticed petrochemical society recently kinetic society.
