Forty-Nine Major and Trace Element Concentrations Measured in Soil Reference Materials NIST SRM 2586, 2587, 2709a, 2710a and 2711a Using ICP-MS and Wavelength Dispersive-XRF.

ABSTRACT: Excellent agreement was noted in the concentration of major and trace elements in five NIST soil reference materials (NIST SRM 2586, 2587, 2709a, 2710a and 2711a) between measurement results from wavelength dispersive-XRF and ICP-MS from two independent laboratories, and NIST certificate of analysis and literature data. We describe the variability in concentrations of up to forty-nine elements (plus loss on ignition) and provide values for up to twenty-one elements previously uncharacterised by NIST in these soil RMs. The additional characterisation provided in this investigation can be utilised to reduce the measurement bias of custom calibration routines and improve the quality of control checks developed using these NIST RMs.

Harmonizing lipidomics: NIST interlaboratory comparison exercise for lipidomics using SRM 1950-Metabolites in Frozen Human Plasma.

Project description:As the lipidomics field continues to advance, self-evaluation within the community is critical. Here, we performed an interlaboratory comparison exercise for lipidomics using Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1950-Metabolites in Frozen Human Plasma, a commercially available reference material. The interlaboratory study comprised 31 diverse laboratories, with each laboratory using a different lipidomics workflow. A total of 1,527 unique lipids were measured across all laboratories and consensus location estimates and associated uncertainties were determined for 339 of these lipids measured at the sum composition level by five or more participating laboratories. These evaluated lipids detected in SRM 1950 serve as community-wide benchmarks for intra- and interlaboratory quality control and method validation. These analyses were performed using nonstandardized laboratory-independent workflows. The consensus locations were also compared with a previous examination of SRM 1950 by the LIPID MAPS consortium. While the central theme of the interlaboratory study was to provide values to help harmonize lipids, lipid mediators, and precursor measurements across the community, it was also initiated to stimulate a discussion regarding areas in need of improvement.

A multi-crystal wavelength dispersive x-ray spectrometer.

Project description:A multi-crystal wavelength dispersive hard x-ray spectrometer with high-energy resolution and large solid angle collection is described. The instrument is specifically designed for time-resolved applications of x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and x-ray Raman scattering (XRS) at X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFEL) and synchrotron radiation facilities. It also simplifies resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) studies of the whole 2d RIXS plane. The spectrometer is based on the Von Hamos geometry. This dispersive setup enables an XES or XRS spectrum to be measured in a single-shot mode, overcoming the scanning needs of the Rowland circle spectrometers. In conjunction with the XFEL temporal profile and high-flux, it is a powerful tool for studying the dynamics of time-dependent systems. Photo-induced processes and fast catalytic reaction kinetics, ranging from femtoseconds to milliseconds, will be resolvable in a wide array of systems circumventing radiation damage.

ICP-MS trace element analysis in serum and whole blood.

Project description:Trace elements and minerals are compounds that are essential for the support of a variety of biological functions and play an important role in the formation of and the defense against oxidative stress. Here we describe a technique, allowing sequential detection of the trace elements (K, Zn, Se, Cu, Mn, Fe, Mg) in serum and whole blood by an ICP-MS method using single work-up, which is a simple, quick and robust method for the sequential measurement and quantification of the trace elements Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Zinc (Zn), Selenium (Se), Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn) and Magnesium (Mg) in whole blood as well as Copper (Cu), Selenium (Se), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), Magnesium (Mg), Manganese (Mn), Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni), Gold (Au) and Lithium (Li) in human serum. For analysis, only 100 ?l of serum or whole blood is sufficient, which make this method suitable for detecting trace element deficiency or excess in newborns and infants. All samples were processed and analyzed by ICP-MS (Agilent Technologies). The accuracy, precision, linearity and the limit of quantification (LOQ), Limit of Blank (LOB) and the limit of detection (LOD) of the method were assessed. Recovery rates were between 80-130% for most of the analyzed elements; repeatabilities (Cv %) calculated were below 15% for most of the measured elements. The validity of the proposed methodology was assessed by analyzing a certified human serum and whole blood material with known concentrations for all elements; the method described is ready for routine use in biomonitoring studies.

Determination of Chlorides in Ionic Liquids by Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry.

Project description:The synthesis of ionic liquids (ILs) usually involves two steps: (i) quaternization of a precursor followed by (ii) a salt metathesis reaction to introduce the desired anion. A consequence of the second step is that most ILs still contain some amount of the initial anion, often chloride. In this work, wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) spectrometry is presented for the direct measurement of chlorides in ILs. The WDXRF settings were optimized, and the system was calibrated for the detection of chloride in several analogues of the commercially available IL Aliquat 336, [A336][X] (with X = I-, Br-, NO3 -, or SCN-). The Cl Kα intensity showed excellent linearity for samples with a conversion >0.80 (approximately Cl < 8000 ppm). Synthetic quality control samples showed that the instrumental error and deviations induced by the calibration procedure were small with maximum values of 1 and 5%, respectively. Detection and quantification limits depended strongly on the matrix (i.e., anion system and dilution) but were relatively low: 42-191 and 127-578 ppm Cl, respectively. Compared with other analytical techniques used for this purpose, the strengths of WDXRF include its ease of use, rapid measurements, the near absence of sample preparation steps, and versatility in terms of anion systems and chloride concentration range.

Evaluation of lipid quantification accuracy using HILIC and RPLC MS on the example of NIST® SRM® 1950 metabolites in human plasma.

Project description:Lipidomics analysis for large-scale studies aiming at the identification and quantification of natural lipidomes is often performed using LC-MS-based data acquisition. However, the choice of suitable LC-MS method for accurate lipid quantification remains a matter of debate. Here, we performed the systematic comparison between two HRAM-MS-based quantification workflows based on HILIC and RPLC MS by quantifying 191 lipids from five lipid classes in human blood plasma using deuterated standards in the "one ISTD-per-lipid class" approach. Lipid quantification was performed considering all necessary isotopic corrections, and obtained correction factors are illustrated. Concentrations of lipids in NIST® SRM® 1950 human blood plasma determined by the two methods were comparable for most of the studied lipid species except for highly unsaturated phosphatidylcholines (PC). A comparison of lipid concentrations to consensus values determined in a previously published multi-laboratory study illustrated possible "overestimation" of concentrations for these highly unsaturated lipids by HILIC MS. We evaluated the influence of lipid loading amounts as well as the difference between quantified lipid and internal standard concentrations on the HILIC MS quantification results. We conclude that both HILIC and RPLC HRAM-MS workflows can be equally used for accurate lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and sphingomyelin (SM) lipid quantification, despite significant differences in the concentration of highly unsaturated PC lipids which need to be addressed by establishing response factors to account for the differences in degree of lipid unsaturation.

Detection of trace metallic elements in oral lichenoid contact lesions using SR-XRF, PIXE, and XAFS.

Project description:Oral lichen planus (OLP) and oral lichenoid contact lesions (OLCL) are chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous reactions with a risk of malignant transformation that alter the epithelium. OLP and OLCL have similar clinical and histopathological features and it is difficult to distinguish one from the other. Metallic restorations are suspected to generate OLCLs. Trace metal analysis of OLCL specimens may facilitate the discrimination of symptoms and identification of causative metallic restorations. The purpose of this study was to assess OLCL tissue samples for the prevalence of metallic elements derived from dental restorations, and to discriminate OLCL from OLP by using synchrotron radiation-excited X-ray fluorescence analysis (SR-XRF), particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE), and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS). Typical elements of dental materials were detected in the OLCL, whereas no obvious element accumulation was detected in OLP and negative control specimens. The origin of the detected metallic elements was presumed to be dental alloys through erosion. Therefore, our findings support the feasibility of providing supporting information to distinguish OLCL from OLP by using elemental analysis.

Between-bottle homogeneity test of new certified reference materials employing wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry.

Project description:BackgroundA pilot study has being carried out at our laboratories, with international collaborators, to develop seven certified reference materials (CRMs), which have matrices of mainly soil and biological tissues. The CRMs will be certified for macro-, micro- and trace elements for environmental, toxicological, agronomic and nutritional purposes. Homogeneity of element concentrations is a critical step in the production process of CRMs. This work employs wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (WD-XRF) to test between-bottle homogeneity of the CRMs.ResultsThe relative standard deviation (RSD), relative average deviation, Skewness and Kurtosis of element contents in seven bottles out of 80 bottles of each CRM were considered to assess homogeneity in terms of variability and distribution. More than 50% of the number of quantified elements recorded RSD between 2 and 5%. Hence, based on an in-house classification, the intended CRMs recorded excellent to good between-bottle homogeneity. Nevertheless, the contents of some elements (Ni, Rb, Zn and Br) experienced high RSD values (>?10%). The Skewness and Kurtosis values of most elements are around one indicating symmetric distribution and thus have an absence of tailing relative to the normal distribution.ConclusionsWD-XRF provides fit for purpose data for assessment of initial between-bottle homogeneity in terms of rapidity, ease of use, multi-element quantification and sample non-destruction.

Covalent Organic Framework/Polyacrylonitrile Electrospun Nanofiber for Dispersive Solid-Phase Extraction of Trace Quinolones in Food Samples.

Project description:The extraction of quinolone antibiotics (QAs) is crucial for the environment and human health. In this work, polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/covalent organic framework TpPa-1 nanofiber was prepared by an electrospinning technique and used as an adsorbent for dispersive solid-phase extraction (dSPE) of five QAs in the honey and pork. The morphology and structure of the adsorbent were characterized, and the extraction and desorption conditions for the targeted analytes were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, a sensitive method was developed by using PAN/TpPa-1 nanofiber as an adsorbent coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for five QAs detection. It offered good linearity in the ranges of 0.5-200 ng·mL-1 for pefloxacin, enrofloxacin, and orbifloxacin, and of 1-200 ng·mL-1 for norfloxacin and sarafloxacin with correlation coefficients above 0.9946. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) of five QAs ranged from 0.03 to 0.133 ng·mL-1. The intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviations of the five QAs with the spiked concentration of 50 ng·mL-1 were 2.8-4.0 and 3.0-8.8, respectively. The recoveries of five QAs in the honey and pork samples were 81.6-119.7%, which proved that the proposed method has great potential for the efficient extraction and determination of QAs in complex samples.

A database of elemental compositions of architectural float glass samples measured by LA-ICP-MS.

Project description:We measured the elemental chemical composition of architectural float glass fragments using inductively coupled mass spectrometry with a laser ablation add-in. Measurements of 18 elemental concentrations were obtained from each fragment at each measurement occasion. These data can be used for statistical analysis with the purpose of evaluating forensic trace evidence. The data collection and measurement process in this database were carefully designed by the authors to enable understanding similarities and differences in elemental composition within a fragment, between fragments within a pane, between panes produced by the same manufacturer, and between manufacturers, to help in forensic glass evaluation. We received 48 panes that were produced on consecutive days, from two glass manufacturers in the U.S. Half of each pane was broken into small fragments and 24 fragments were randomly sampled from each half pane. To compute well-conditioned estimates of high-dimensional covariance matrices at all levels, we replicated measurements on each fragment; for three of the 24 fragments from a pane, we obtained 20 replicate measurements, and for the other 21 fragments, we made five replicate measurements. Analytical procedures to carry out the measurements followed the protocols recommended for forensic float glass samples by ENFSI [1] and the ASTM [2]. The database described in this article is related to two published research articles, "Learning algorithms to evaluate forensic glass evidence" by Park and Carriquiry (2019) [3] and "Evaluation and comparison of methods for forensic glass source conclusions" by Park and Tyner (2019) [4].
