Abstract:
Abstract A sensitive method was developed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC)/MS/MS with positive electrospray ionization for determining aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in milk and milk powder. A 50 mL quantity of low-fat liquid milk containing 100 ng/L AFM1 was prepared using immunoaffinity columns with a mean recovery rate of 79% (n = 3). UHPLC columns (BEH C18, BEH HILIC, and HSS T3) greatly reduced the chromatographic time and lowered the instrumental detection limits (IDLs) 16 to 58 times compared to an HPLC column (Betabasic C18). The HSS T3 column was chosen because it provided a low IDL (0.11 pg) and the lowest ion suppression of signal intensity (63.4%) among the tested columns. Matrix-fortified calibration curves were used for quantification and showed good linearity (r > 0.997) at 0.05–500 ng/mL. The LOD was 0.18 ng/kg for milk and 2.08 ng/kg for milk powder, based on the signal intensity of the confirmatory product ion (m/z 259.1), which was less abundant than the quantitative product ion (m/z 273.1).

Abstract:
The study was conducted to evaluate the applicability of ultra high-performance liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry method (UHPLC-MS/MS), establish the MS/MS detection parameters and determine the validation characteristics for the analysis of residual content of avermectins in milk. The UHPLC-MS/MS method has proved to be accurate, practical and universal. This was confirmed by Decision limit (CCα) data: abamectin - 12.56 μg/kg, doramectin - 17.74 μg/kg, eprinomectin - 24.02 μg/kg, ivermectin - 12.53 μg/kg, moxidectin - 44.69 μg/kg, recovery is 88.7-110%. The data obtained for assessing the suitability, accuracy and reproducibility of the results meet the requirements of the European Directive (2002/657/EC). The efficient ultra high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method that was developed and adopted for routine use by the laboratories of veterinary medicine, allows to detect residual quantities of 5 avermectins used in animal breeding for the prevention of helminthiases in food products including milk.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents the application of ultra-high performance LC (UHPLC) and MS for the determination of 151 pesticides in soybeans and pulses. A core-shell particle (2.6 μm particle size) column and a fully porous sub-2 μm (1.7 μm particle size) column showed comparable performance in chromatographic resolution and separation, increasing selectivity, and reducing analysis time. UHPLC was coupled with either a triple quadrupole mass analyzer (MS/MS) or a quadrupole Orbitrap (namely Orbital trap) mass spectrometer (Q-Orbitrap MS), which possesses fast data acquisition capability. Both configurations yielded analytical run times of ≤14 min. Soybean and pulse samples were analyzed and quantitated for pesticide residues using the QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) procedure, UHPLC/electrospray ionization (ESI)-MS/MS, and matrix-matched standard calibration curves (in an analytical range of 5–500 μg/kg) with isotopically-labeled standards or a chemical analog as internal standards. The method performance parameters that included overall recovery, intermediate precision, and measurement uncertainty were evaluated according to a nested design experiment. Approximately 89% of the pesticides studied had recoveries between 81 and 110%; 95%, had intermediate precision ≤20%; and 93% showed measurement uncertainty ≤40%. From a pilot study of 100 samples, eight tested positive by UHPLC/ESI-MS/MS for carbendazim, methomyl, or imidacloprid. These pesticides were further confirmed using UHPLC/ESI-Q-Orbitrap MS based on accurate mass measurement with mass error ≤5 ppm.

Abstract:
Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) is a powerful and essential technique for metabolite annotation in untargeted metabolomic applications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of diverse tandem MS (MS/MS) acquisition modes, i.e., all ion fragmentation (AIF) and data-dependent analysis (DDA), with and without ion mobility spectrometry (IM), to annotate metabolites in human plasma. The influence of the LC separation was also evaluated by comparing the performance of MS/MS acquisition in combination with three complementary chromatographic separation modes: reversed-phase chromatography (RPLC) and hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) with either an amide (aHILIC) or a zwitterionic (zHILIC) stationary phase. RPLC conditions were first chosen to investigate all the tandem MS modes, and we found out that DDA did not provide a significant additional amount of chemical coverage and that cleaner MS/MS spectra can be obtained by performing AIF acquisitions in combination with IM. Finally, we were able to annotate 338 unique metabolites and demonstrated that zHILIC was a powerful complementary approach to both the RPLC and aHILIC chromatographic modes. Moreover, a better analytical throughput was reached for an almost negligible loss of metabolite coverage when IM-AIF and AIF using ramped instead of fixed collision energies were used.

Abstract:
Two new ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) methods for analyzing 21 selected antivirals and their metabolites were optimized, including sample preparation step, LC separation conditions, and tandem mass spectrometry detection. Micro-solid phase extraction in pipette tips was used to extract antivirals from the biological material of Hanks balanced salt medium of pH 7.4 and 6.5. These media were used in experiments to evaluate the membrane transport of antiviral drugs. Challenging diversity of physicochemical properties was overcome using combined sorbent composed of C18 and ion exchange moiety, which finally allowed to cover the whole range of tested antivirals. For separation, reversed-phase (RP) chromatography and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC), were optimized using extensive screening of stationary and mobile phase combinations. Optimized RP-UHPLC separation was carried out using BEH Shield RP18 stationary phase and gradient elution with 25 mmol/L formic acid in acetonitrile and in water. HILIC separation was accomplished with a Cortecs HILIC column and gradient elution with 25 mmol/L ammonium formate pH 3 and acetonitrile. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) conditions were optimized in both chromatographic modes, but obtained results revealed only a little difference in parameters of capillary voltage and cone voltage. While RP-UHPLC-MS/MS exhibited superior separation selectivity, HILIC-UHPLC-MS/MS has shown substantially higher sensitivity of two orders of magnitude for many compounds. Method validation results indicated that HILIC mode was more suitable for multianalyte methods. Despite better separation selectivity achieved in RP-UHPLC-MS/MS, the matrix effects were noticed while using both chromatographic modes leading to signal enhancement in RP and signal suppression in HILIC.

Abstract:
Chromatographic separation combined with mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for the characterization of plant metabolites because of its high sensitivity and selectivity. In this work, the phytochemical profile of aerial and radicular parts of Coryphantha macromeris (Engelm.) Britton & Rose growing under greenhouse conditions was qualitatively investigated for the first time by means of modern ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-PDA-HESI-Orbitrap-MS/MS). The UHPLC-PDA-HESI-Orbitrap-MS/MS analysis indicated a high complexity in phenolic metabolites. In our investigation, 69 compounds were detected and 60 of them were identified. Among detected compounds, several phenolic acids, phenolic glycosides, and organic acids were found. Within this diversity, 26 metabolites were exclusively detected in the aerial part, and 19 in the roots. Twenty-four metabolites occurred in both plant parts. According to the relative abundance of peaks in the chromatogram, ferulic and piscidic acids and their derivatives may correspond to one of the main phenolic compounds of C. macromeris. Our results contribute to the phytochemical knowledge regarding C. macromeris and its potential applications in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Besides, some metabolites and their fragmentation patterns are reported here for the first time for cacti species.

Abstract: This work involves the development, optimization and validation of an analytical method for multiresidue determination of pesticides in strawberry samples by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Sample preparation used the QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe) method, which was tested in three versions, Original, AOAC Official Method and European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Standard Method EN 15662, and also CEN 15662 modified version. The factores optimized were extraction solvents, amount of drying agent and in the clean-up step by dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE), the commercial sorbent PSA (primary secondary amine), several prepared in the laboratory based on siloxane polymers, such as octadecyl, octyl, amine, phenyl, and the mixture PSA and octadecyl. The evaluation of the methods was based mainly on the recovery values and for the study of different sorbents, other parameters that estimate the efficiency of the clean-up were also used such as the physical aspect of the final extract, the amount of interference matrix obtained using gravimetric measurements, and the matrix effect. The developed method was validated by the analytical parameters of selectivity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), linearity, accuracy and precision, as described in the Sanco guide for analysis of pesticide residues in foods. After, commercial strawberry samples from the Campinas region were analyzed. The validated method by LC-MS/MS was selective, precise, accurate and reached levels below the respective maximum residue limits (MRLs) for the determination of pesticides in strawberries. This method was transferred to ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), which showed a reduction in analysis time, the mobile phase (MP) flow rate and the injection volume of the sample and MP, and similarity in the detectability of the analytes

A rapid, specific and highly sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed to determine nimodipine in human plasma using dibucaine as the internal standard (IS) is described. The analyte (m/z 418,6 > 342,6) and IS (m/z 344,2 > 271,0) were extracted from plasma samples by liquid-liquid extraction using hexane-ethyl acetate (1:1v/v). Chromatography was performed on a Varian Polaris C18 analytical column (3 micrometer, 50 x 2,0 mm) and pre-column SecurityguardTM C18 (4,0 x 3,0 mm). The phase mobile consisted of Acetonitrile-Ammonium acetate 0.02 ml/L (80:20v/v). The method had a chromatographic run time of 4.5 min and linear calibration curve over the range 0.1- 40 ng/mL (r2 > 0.9938). The limit of quantification (LQ) was 0.1 ng/mL. The intra-day precision for the limit quantification was 0.00% (batch 01), 5.71% (batch 02) and 5.27% (batch 03); for the quality controls low (QCL), middle (QCM) and high (QCH) the results were respectively 8.57, 0.81 and 1.37%. The inter-day precision for LQ and QCL, QCM and QCH were respectively: 7% and 5.46, 4.12 and 3.37%. The intra-day accuracy for LQ was 110, 96 and 104%; for QCL, QCM and QCH the results were100.67, 109.09 and 109.72% respectively. The results of the inter-day accuracy for LQ, QCL, QCM and QCH were respectively and 110.0, 96.0, 104.0% for the limit of quantification and 8.57, 0.81, 1.37% and 100.67, 109.09, 109.72% respectively: 103% e 102.89, 106.60, 109.69%. This validated method was successfully applied for the pharmacokinetic profiles of nimodipine tablets administered to 24 healthy volunteerâs participant of bioavailability comparative study. Geometric mean of Test formulation/Refernce formulation individual percent ratio was 104,56% for AUC0-48h and 55,73% for Cmax. The 90% for the confidence intervals (CI) were 94,80-115,32% e 44,73-69,42%, respectively. The values of half-life and Cmax for test formulation and reference formulation were 27,83;32,78h and 9,48;18,76ng/mL, respectively. The values of Tmax were 2,34;0,98h for the formulations test and reference respectively. Since the 90% CI for Cmax and AUC0-48h, were within the 80-125% interval proposed by the âFood and Drug Administrationâ and ANVISA, it was concluded that the two formulations of nimodipine 30mg tablets were not bioequivalent, according to the rate of absorption after single dose administration.

Abstract:
Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFASs) belong to a large group of man-made chemicals that pollute the environment. Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) are the most commonly found PFASs. The pollution of PFASs can be caused among others by using of aqueous fire-fighting foams (AFFFs). PFASs are persistent compounds; that can travel long distances and bioaccumulate in biota. There are several exposure routes for PFASs, but the most common are via food and drinking water. A possible way for PFASs to enter the food chain is by adsorption to microbes. In this project, binding of PFASs to three gram-negative bacteria, Eschericha coli, Acidovorax delafieldii and Pseudomonas nitroreducens, was assessed. Microbes were exposed for fluorinated compounds in environmental water samples and a PFAS-11 solution with 11 PFAS substances prepared in the laboratory. The binding seems to be preferential to the most abundant compounds, PFOS, since the second most abundant compound in the samples was PFHxS with concentrations at one third of the PFOS concentration but nonetheless PFHxS was not detected in any of the samples. The binding of mainly one PFAS was identified; PFOS was bound at highest concentrations in E. coli treated with both environmental water sample and a PFAS-11 solution. Low concentrations of FOSA and PFDoDS were identified in E. coli and PFNA in A. delafieldii. Only PFOS was detected in P. nitroreducens. The concentrations of other PFASs were below their respective method detection limits.

Abstract:
A venlafaxina (VEN), em razão de sua eficácia e brandos efeitos adversos, tem sido um dos antidepressivos mais prescritos no tratamento da depressão e ansiedade. Neste trabalho, um método analítico empregando as técnicas MISPE miniaturizada e cromatografia líquida acoplada à espectrometria de massas em Tandem, foi utilizado para a determinação de VEN e seus principais metabólitos em amostras de plasma para fins de monitorização terapêutica. A fase MIP foi sintetizada via polimerização radicalar por precipitação, fazendo uso de VEN (molécula molde), ácido metacrílico (monômero funcional), etileno glicol dimetacrilato, (reagente reticulante) e 2,2 azobisisobutironitrila (iniciador radicalar) em tolueno (solvente). Para controle utilizou-se o polímero não impresso (NIP), sintetizado por procedimento análogo ao do MIP, porém sem o uso da molécula molde. A caracterização química e estrutural dos polímeros foi realizada por espectroscopia no infravermelho com transformada de fourier e microscopia eletrônica de varredura. A otimização das variáveis de MISPE miniaturizada favoreceu a detectabilidade analítica e diminuiu o efeito de memória. As extrações realizadas com MIP apresentaram taxa de recuperação de 84% para VEN e de 2-28% para os antidepressivos (clorpromazina, fluoxetina, clomipramina, imipramina e sertralina). O polímero não impresso apresentou baixa recuperação para a VEN (taxa de recuperação: 49%) e para os demais antidepressivos (taxas de recuperação menores que 40%). Estes experimentos comprovam a seletividade da fase MIP desenvolvida. O método padronizado apresentou linearidade na faixa de 3 a 700 ng mL-1 para VEN, 5 a 700 ng mL-1 para O-desmetilvenlafaxina (ODV) e de 3 a 500 ng mL-1 para N-desmetilvenlafaxina (NDV), precisão com coeficientes de variação menores que 15% e exatidão com valores de erro padrão relativo na faixa de -11,8 a 16,01 %. As concentrações correspondentes aos limites inferiores de quantificação para VEN (3 ng mL-1) e ODV ( 5 ng mL-1) foram inferiores aos intervalos terapêuticos preconizados. O método desenvolvido, quando comparado a aos métodos da literatura para determinação de VEN e metabolitos, apresentou maior seletividade, menor consumo de amostra e de solventes orgânicos e permitiu a reutilização da fase extratora. Segundo os parâmetros de validação analítica avaliados e amostras de pacientes em terapia com VEN analisadas, o método proposto é adequado para determinação de VEN, ODV e NDV em amostras de plasma para fins de monitorização terapêutica.
Venlafaxine elicits a small number of adverse effects, so it is one of the most frequently prescribed drugs to treat major depression, generalized anxiety, and social anxiety disorders in adults. In this study, venlafaxine (VEN), O-desmethylvenlafaxine (ODV), and N-desmethylvenlafaxine (NDV) were pre-concentrated with the aid of miniaturized SPE based on MIPs as extraction phase. MIPs are synthetic polymers with cavities specifically designed to hold a target molecule or structurally similar compounds. The molecularly imprinted polymers were prepared by addition of VEN, metacrylic acid (MAA, monomer), ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA, cross-linker), and 2,2-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN, initiator) to toluene (solvent). The non-imprinted polymer (NIP), used for comparison, was also synthesized by following exactly the same procedure, but excluding the template VEN from the formulation. The polymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Optimization of the MIP phase extraction variables favored miniaturized analytical detectability and reduced the memory effect. The extractions performed with the synthesized MIP showed recovery rate of 84% for VEN and 2-28% for other antidepressants (chlorpromazine, fluoxetine, clomipramine, imipramine, and sertraline). The non-imprinted polymer provided low recovery of VEN (recovery rate: 49%) and other antidepressants (recovery rates lower than 40%). These experiments demonstrated the selectivity of the developed MIP phase. The standardized method was linear in the range of 300 - 700 ng mL-1 for VEN, 5-700 ng mL-1 for ODV, and 3 to 500 ng mL-1 for NDV. Precision had coefficients of variation smaller than 15%; the accuracy standard error values ranged from -11.8 to 16.01%. Compared with literature methods, the developed method was more selective for determination of VEN and metabolites, required lower consumption of sample and organic solvents, and enabled reuse of the extraction phase. According to the assessed analytical validation parameters and to the analysis of samples obtained from patients undergoing therapy with VEN, the proposed method is suitable to determine VEN, NDV, and ODV in plasma samples for therapeutic drug monitoring.

Abstract:
En raison de la diffusion incontrôlée sur le e-commerce, la sécurité et l’alternative légale aux stupéfiants habituels, les nouvelles substances psychoactives (NPS), d’apparition récente (2008), sont au cœur des phénomènes récents d’addiction et de décès mal expliqués. Au-delà des différents défis dans nos sociétés (prévention, législation), la capacité d’identifier les NPS dans des échantillons biologiques pour caractériser leur utilisation, présente de nombreux challenges analytiques. L’objectif principal de cette thèse a été de collecter des échantillons biologiques (sang, urine, cheveux) provenant de cas d’exposition à des NPS et d’y caractériser les substances présentes à l’aide de méthodes analytiques originales, dans le but d’enrichir les librairies de spectres de masse et d’améliorer, en conséquence, la détection de la consommation de NPS. En particulier, il s’agissait d’augmenter la fenêtre de détection de la prise de NPS en se focalisant sur les métabolites qui sont, le plus souvent, les produits majeurs d’élimination. Le développement analytique, par chromatographie liquide ultra haute performance couplée à la spectrométrie de masse en tandem (UHPLC-MS/MS), a demandé plusieurs mois d’optimisation afin d’obtenir une méthode robuste, exhaustive et sensible. Actuellement, la librairie de spectres MS comporte 114 NPS et est mise à jour régulièrement. A la suite de ce développement, ma thèse a porté sur l’étude de cas d’intoxication vus au service des urgences du CHU de Strasbourg, mais aussi en médecine légale, avec des situations de décès et d’identification de produits inconnus provenant de saisies (poudres et cristaux). Il a également été nécessaire de développer des outils analytiques complémentaires, tels que la caractérisation de métabolite(s) par étude sur microsomes hépatiques humains (HLMs), et l’utilisation de la spectroscopie par résonance magnétique nucléaire (RMN) afin d’identifier avec certitude certains composés et de déterminer leur degré de pureté. Les outils analytiques développés et la stratégie mise en place ont permis la rédaction de 18 publications, ainsi que l’agencement de nombreuses collaborations
Due to the uncontrolled spread on the Internet and their legal alternative to usual drugs, the new psychoactive substances (NPS), recently appeared (2008), are at the center of recent phenomena of addiction and badly explained deaths. Beyond different challenges in our societies (prevention, legislation), the ability to identify NPS in biological samples, in order to characterize their use, presents many analytical challenges. The main objective of this thesis was to collect biological samples (blood, urine, hair) from cases of exposure to NPS and to characterize the substances present using original analytical methods, in order to enlarge the libraries of mass spectra and improve, as a result, the detection of NPS consumption. In particular, it was intended to increase the detection sensitivity of NPS intake by focusing on the metabolites that are often the major products of elimination. This analytical development, by ultra-high liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS), required several months of optimization in order to obtain a robust, exhaustive and sensitive method. At present, the mass spectra database has 114 NPS and is regularly updated. Thereafter, ma thesis focused on the study of cases of intoxication observed in the emergency department of Strasbourg, but also in legal medicine with situations of deaths and identification of unknown products collected from seizures (powders and crystals). It has also been necessary to implement complementary analytical tools, such as the characterization of metabolites by human liver microsomes (HLMs), and the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to accurately identify the compounds and establish their purity degrees. The analytical tools developed, and the strategy adopted, allowed the writing of 18 publications, as well as the setting up of numerous collaborations

>Magister Scientiae - MSc
Subsistence farmers may contribute significantly to food production, food security, and employment in South Africa. However poor storage practices and contamination with mycotoxins, particularly fumonisins and aflatoxins impacts adversely on production, food safety and food security. Mycotoxins are toxic natural food-borne compounds which frequently contaminate agricultural produce worldwide. They are hazardous to humans and animals and result in significant production losses for farmers. This study focused on former Bantustans in Northern South Africa, namely Vhembe District Municipality (Limpopo) and Gert Sibande District Municipality (Mpumalanga). The aim was to assess mycological and mycotoxin contamination of crops grown by subsistence farmers. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to randomly thirty-nine households. Data on demographics, storage practices and production during period of 2011 and 2012 cropping seasons were collected. One hundred and fifteen (115) crop samples (maize, beans and peanuts) were collected for analysis. Standard mycological methods and validated mycotoxin analysis methods (HPLC and LC- MS/MS) were used. It was found that maize was the staple food in both provinces, with a significant difference (p = 0.0184) in its production between the two districts; Vhembe produced 0.6 tonnes compared to 2.4 tonnes in Gert Sibande. The majority of the farmers for storage used traditional open wooden cribs (15/20) and steel tanks (5/20) while VDM farmers used sealed store houses 5/19 and 15/19 used polystyrene sacks. Aflatoxin occurrence was low with <1% of GSDM samples contaminated compared to 11% of VDM samples. No significant difference (p > 0.05) was observed in the aflatoxin contamination in VDM samples between the year 2011 and 2012. Samples from VDM households had higher Aspergillus fungal infection (maximum incidence 69%) compared to GSDM (27%) over both seasons. The most frequently isolated Fusarium species in VDM samples was F. verticillioides (92%; 93%), and F. subglutinans (97%; 80%) in GSDM samples over seasons 2011 and 2012, respectively. Highest levels of fumonisins (FB1+ FB2) ranged between 1010 μg/kg and 12168 μg/kg with less than 30% extremely contaminated above the regulated limit in 91% of samples from Limpopo over both seasons (2011 and 2012). Fumonisin levels between the two seasons in VDM showed no significant difference (p>0.05). Only three (less than 5%) from 68% GSDM contaminated maize samples were above the FB1 and FB2 limit. In 2011, there were two highly contaminated maize samples (1762 μg/kg and 4598 μg/kg) with the other samples less than 600 μg/kg, whereas in season two (2012) all samples were below 200 μg/kg, except one highly contaminated sample (26115 μg/kg). None of the beans and peanuts from Mpumalanga was contaminated with mycotoxins above the recommended limit, but from Limpopo 1/5 peanuts was found contaminated with aflatoxin G1 (41 μg/kg). Natural occurrence and contamination of both fumonisin and aflatoxin in stored home-grown maize from VDM was significantly (p < 0.0001) higher than GSDM over both seasons. In general, Limpopo farmers’ experience lower harvests and greater mycotoxin contamination of agricultural produce. This may be attributed in part to poor storage practices and environmental and climatic conditions in that agro-ecological zone.

Resumo: A palavra própolis tem origem Grega: pro significa em defensa de, e polis significa comunidade. A própolis é usada pelas abelhas para fortalecer as paredes da colmeia e para cobrir as paredes internas e por devido a sua atividade antimicrobiana. A composição química da própolis é variável segundo a biodiversidade e a origem geográfica. A própolis vermelha, encontrada no nordeste e norte do Brasil, apresenta promissoras atividades biológicas: atividade antimicrobiana, antiparasitária, antioxidante, citotóxica, antiinflamatória, analgésica, efeitos antiobesidade, contra psoríase e hepatoprotetores. A composição química da própolis vermelha, relatada na literatura, parece variar qualitativa e quantitativamente, inclusive entre amostras coletadas na mesma região. Isto pode ser devido a variações sazonais, a flora direitamente ao redor das colméias ou aos métodos de análise. A maioria das classes de substâncias já identificadas pode ser analisada adequadamente por espectrometria de massas com ionização por eletrospray e cromatografia líquida. Os constituintes de média e alta polaridade (como fenólicos, flavonóides e benzofenonas) são responsáveis por muitas das atividades biológicas reportadas à própolis vermelha. A cromatografia líquida de ultra-eficiência acoplada à espectrometria de massas (UHPLC-MS) é um método moderno, rápido e sensível. Permite avaliar os perfis químicos das amostras e determinar sua composição qualitativamente, comparando os espectros de massas (MS/MS) dos componentes das amostras com informações na literatura. Portanto UHPLC-MS é a ferramenta mais adequada para a avaliação da composição de matrizes complexas como a própolis. A comparação do perfil químico de diversas amostras de própolis vermelha brasileira e a avaliação de sua atividade antimicrobiana e antioxidante permitirá identificar substâncias que possam estar contribuindo para sua bioatividade, e levar á identificação de marcadores químicos para o controle de qualidade destas amostras, bem como possibilitará definir se há um ou vários tipos de própolis vermelha
Abstract: The word, propolis is of Greek origin: pro means in defense of and polis means community. Propolis is used by bees to strengthen the hive walls and cover the inner walls for its antimicrobial activity. The chemical composition of propolis varies depending on the biodiversity and geographic origin. Red propolis from the north and northeast of Brazil shows promising biological activity: antimicrobial, antiparasitic, antioxidant, cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antiobesity, antipsoriasic and hepatoprotective effects. The chemical composition of red propolis reported in literature seems to vary qualitatively and quantitatively, even between samples collected in the same region. This may be due to seasonal variations, the flora directly around the hives or differences in the analytical methods. Most of the compounds already identified can be analyzed by mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization and liquid chromatography. These compounds of medium and high polarity (phenolics, flavonoids and benzophenones) are responsible for most of the biological activities reported. Ultra efficient liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) is a modern, fast and sensitive method. It allows the characterization of the chemical profile of the samples and determines their qualitative composition, by comparison of the mass spectra (MS/MS) of the compounds with data from literature. Therefore it is the most adequate tool to evaluate the composition of complex matrixes such as propolis. The comparison of the chemical profile of diverse red propolis samples and evaluation of their antimicrobial and antioxidant activities allow us to identify the compounds responsible for these activities, indicate the marker compounds and define if there is one type, or several types, of red propolis

Abstract:
Pharmaceutical contaminants in drinking water could potentially lead to increasing risks of heart attacks, organ damage, mental health and even cancer. Because their presence, frequency of occurrence, or source may not be known, the chemicals being discovered in water that previously had not been detected or are being detected at levels that may be significantly different than expected. Removal of emerging contaminants is considered recently to be one of the most important processes within advanced Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTPs) system. EPA is working to improve its understanding of a number of emerging contaminants, particularly pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). The objectives of this research are: 1) to identify the presence of selected emerging contaminants (Acetaminophen, Bezafibrate, Caffeine, Carbamazepine, Cotinine, Diclofenac, Gemfibrozil, Ibuprofen, Metoprolol, Naproxen, Sulfadimethoxine, Sulfamethazine, Sulfamethoxazole, Sulfathiazole, Triclosan and Trimethoprim). These contaminants were selected based on analyte selection criteria such as occurrence and availability of analytical standards, chronological ecotoxicity and environment relevance concentration, volume of use, and priority ranking, as well as literature survey on environmental occurrence studies in local WWTPs; 2) to estimate the corresponding WWTPs’ removal efficiency; and the third objective is to evaluate the feasibility of applying ultra-filtration (UF) membrane combined with pretreatments — powder activated carbon (PAC), coagulation, and sand filtration to remove the above emerging contaminants. This paper appraises the efficacy of ultra-filtration membrane coupled pretreatments to mitigate the presence of pharmaceutical contaminants in water. This work is a sequel to an earlier work, Liu et al., published in 2014 ASME-IMECE conference proceedings. In this study, water samples were analyzed using direct aqueous injection High Performance Liquid Chromatography with Tandem Quadrupole Mass Spectrometric (LC/MS/MS) detection. Through the project research period, both historical concentrations from WWTPs and experimental removal efficiency data were obtained. Results showed that conventional WWTP failed to remove Carbamazepine, Diclofenac and Trimethoprim, and in some cases, the concentration of these contaminants at the effluent were higher than influent concentration. Secondly, the ultrafiltration membrane system by itself was insufficient to remove the selected contaminants. However, the use of PAC as a pretreatment to the UF system was effective in removing most of the contaminants, and the removal efficiency was a function of PAC dosage. Results indicated that there is an optimum dosage where the removal efficiency must be balanced with the cost of PAC. Unlike PAC, coagulation coupled with filtration process, was not able to increase the contaminants removal efficiency significantly. Additionally, the historical data indicated there was no dramatic fluctuation of the target contaminants level during the 12-month monitoring period.

Abstract:
Cannabidiol (CBD) is an alkaloid present in Cannabis sativa, together with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and more than 120 other substances belonging to a group of compounds named cannabinoids. Due to the continuous increased usage of CBD oils, it became necessary to be developed efficient methods for the identification of its compounds and especially for the characterization of the cannabinoids from the commercial specimens. Cannabinoids may be detected by many and different analytical methods, including immunoassays (EMIT®, Elisa, fluorescent polarization, radioimmunotest), techniques of flat chromatography: classic thin layer chromatography (TLC), optimum performance laminar chromatography (OPLC) and multiple development automatization (AMD), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). Ultraviolet signal (UV) is used for the quantification of major cannabinoids and the mass spectrometer is used for the quantification of minor cannabinoids. The purpose of this study was to compare the performances of TLC, Ultra High-Performance Liquid chromatography with Photodiode Array Detection (UHPLC with PDA) and LC-MS/ MS technique for the qualitative and quantitative determination of cannabinoids in 3 commercial oils with CBD. Having in view that CBD may be found in many forms of oils, on the legal market of the internet, we believe that the development of a method for the qualitative and quantitative determination may be an interesting subject for the pharmaceutical professional persons.

Abstract:
Abstract The development of automatable high sensitivity analytical methods for tracer detection has been one of the most central challenges to realize ubiquitous full-field tracer deployment to study reservoirs with many cross-communicating injector and producer wells. Herein we report a tracer analysis approach, inspired by strategies commonly utilized in the biotechnology industry, that directly addresses key limitations in process throughput, detection sensitivity and automation potential of state-of-the-art technologies. A two-dimensional high performance liquid chromatography (2D-HPLC) method was developed for the rapid fluorescence detection and simultaneous identification of a class of novel barcoded tracers in produced water down to ultra-trace concentration ranges (&lt;1ppb), matching the sensitivity of tracer technologies currently used in the oil industry. The sample preparation process throughput was significantly intensified by judicious adaptations of off-the-shelf biopharma automation solutions. The optical detection sensitivity was further improved by the time-resolved luminescence of the novel tracer materials that allows the negation of residual background signals from the produced water. To showcase the potential, we applied this powerful separation and detection methodology to analyze field samples from two recent field validations of a novel class of optically detectable tracers, in which two novel tracers were injected along with a benchmarking conventional fluorobenzoic acid (FBA)-based tracer. The enhanced resolving power of the 2D chromatographic separation drastically suppressed the background signal, enabling the optical detection of a tracer species injected at 10x lower concentration. Further, we orthogonally confirmed the detection of this tracer species by the industry standard high-resolution accurate mass spectrometry (HRAM) technique, demonstrating comparable limits of detection. Tracer detection profile indicated that the transport behavior of the novel optical tracers through highly saline and retentive reservoir was similar to that of FBAs, validating the performance of this new class of tracers. Promising steps toward complete automation of the tracer separation and detection procedure have drastically reduced manual interventions and decreased the analysis cycle time, laying solid foundation to full-field deployment of tracers for better reservoir characterizations to inform decisions on production optimization. This paper outlines the automatable tracer detection methodology that has been developed for robustness and simplicity, so that efficient utilization of the resultant high-resolution tracer data can be applied toward improving production strategy via intelligent and active rate adjustments.
