Instant Controlled Pressure Drop Used in Oligosaccharide Analysis
A research group from LMTAI (La Rochelle, France) and LVMH Recherche (St. Jean de Braye Cedex, France) analyzed the oligosaccharides ciceritol and stachyose extracted from Tephrosia purpurea seeds using an instant controlled pressure drop pretreatment before solvent extraction.
A research group from LMTAI (La Rochelle, France) and LVMH Recherche (St. Jean de Braye Cedex, France) analyzed the oligosaccharides ciceritol and stachyose extracted from Tephrosia purpurea seeds using an instant controlled pressure drop pretreatment before solvent extraction. They investigated parameters such as steam pressure, initial water content, and thermal treatment time. The pressure drop step reportedly enabled increased diffusion of solvent inside the seeds. The researchers verified the procedure’s structure modification in the seeds using scanning electron microscopy micrographs.
Study Explores Thin-Film Extraction of Biogenic Amines via HPLC-MS/MS
March 27th 2025Scientists from Tabriz University and the University of Tabriz explored cellulose acetate-UiO-66-COOH as an affordable coating sorbent for thin film extraction of biogenic amines from cheese and alcohol-free beverages using HPLC-MS/MS.
Multi-Step Preparative LC–MS Workflow for Peptide Purification
March 21st 2025This article introduces a multi-step preparative purification workflow for synthetic peptides using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The process involves optimizing separation conditions, scaling-up, fractionating, and confirming purity and recovery, using a single LC–MS system. High purity and recovery rates for synthetic peptides such as parathormone (PTH) are achieved. The method allows efficient purification and accurate confirmation of peptide synthesis and is suitable for handling complex preparative purification tasks.
