Article Abstract
Atmospheric solids analysis probe mass spectrometry (ASAP-MS) was used for the first time for direct surface analysis of plant material. It can be readily used for surface analysis of whole and intact pea seeds and their seed coats, and for the study of the profile of fatty acids on the outer surface. Furthermore, ASAP-MS in combination with multivariate statistics allowed classification of pea genotypes with respect to physical dormancy and investigation of related biological markers. Hexacosanoic and octacosanoic acids were suggested to be important markers likely influencing water transport through the seed coat into the embryo (with the highest significance for dormant L100 genotype). ASAP-MS provided higher selectivity and better signal of fatty acids compared to (MA)LDI-MS (laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry either matrix free or matrix assisted) providing on the other hand spatial distribution information and results obtained by both methods are mutually supportive. The developed ASAP-MS method and obtained results can be widely utilized in biological, food, and agricultural research. Graphical abstract ᅟ.

Tires are complex polymeric materials composed of rubber elastomers (both natural and synthetic), fillers, steel wire, textiles, and a range of antioxidant and curing systems. These constituents are distributed differently among the various tire parts, which are classified based on their function and proximity to the rim. This study presents a rapid and sensitive approach for the characterization of tire components using mild thermal desorption/pyrolysis (TDPy) coupled to direct analysis in real-time mass spectrometry (DART-MS).

The global rise in antibiotic resistance demands the urgent development of new antibacterial agents. This study investigated the antibacterial potential of four synthesized methoxy and thiophene chalcone derivatives (designated 3a, 4a, 3b, and 4b) against clinically relevant bacterial pathogens. These compounds were prepared through Claisen-Schmidt condensation, while their chemical structures were verified through applying Fourier-transform infrared, mass spectrometry, H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and C NMR.

In charge detection mass spectrometry (CD-MS) ions are trapped in an electrostatic linear ion trap (ELIT) where they oscillate back and forth through a conducting cylinder. The oscillating ions induce a periodic charge separation that is detected by a charge sensitive amplifier (CSA) connected to the cylinder. The resulting time domain signal is analyzed using short-time Fourier transforms to give the mass-to-charge ratio and charge for each ion, which are then multiplied to give the mass.

The persistent threat posed by phytopathogenic fungi to agricultural systems underscores the critical need for novel fungicides. Here, we synthesized and characterized a series of novel acridospiroisoxazole derivatives (H1-H36) using H/C NMR and mass spectrometry. The absolute configuration of compound H23 was confirmed using single-crystal x-ray diffraction analysis.
