Contemporary lipidomics protocols are dependent on conventional tandem mass spectrometry for lipid identification. This approach is extremely powerful for determining lipid class and identifying the number of carbons and the degree of unsaturation of any acyl-chain substituents. Such analyses are however, blind to isomeric variants arising from different carbon−carbon bonding motifs within these chains including double bond position, chain branching, and cyclic structures. This limitation arises from the fact that conventional, low energy collision-induced dissociation of even-electron lipid ions does not give rise to product ions from intrachain fragmentation of the fatty acyl moieties. To overcome this limitation, we have …

The gas-phase CN + propene reaction is investigated using synchrotron photoionization mass spectrometry (SPIMS) over the 9.8 - 11.5 eV photon energy range. Experiments are conducted at room temperature in 4 Torr of He buffer gas. The CN + propene addition reaction produces two distinct product mass channels, C3H3N and C4H5N, corresponding to CH3 and H elimination, respectively. The CH3 and H elimination channels are measured to have branching fractions of 0.59 + 0.15 and 0.41 + 0.10, respectively. The absolute photoionization cross sections between 9.8 and 11.5 eV are measured for the three considered H-elimination coproducts: 1-, 2-, and …
Geochemical Consequences Of The Permian-Triassic Mass Extinction In A Non-Marine Succession, Sydney Basin, Australia, M Williams, B Jones, P Carr
Geochemical Consequences Of The Permian-Triassic Mass Extinction In A Non-Marine Succession, Sydney Basin, Australia, M Williams, B Jones, P Carr
B. G. Jones
The identification of the Permian–Triassic boundary (PTB) and Permian–Triassic mass extinction event (PTME) in eastern Australia is based primarily on palynological and plant fossil evidence with limited δ13Corg data from the northern part of the Sydney Basin. Consequently, the PTB in the Sydney Basin has been placed at the top of the last Permian coal measures. Here we report carbon and nitrogen isotopic data, together with major element, trace element and mineralogical data, for a continuous non‐marine Permian–Triassic (P–Tr) section from the southern Sydney Basin. The PTME is identified by a negative shift in δ13Corg of ~ 3.8‰ occurring approximately …

Infrared Spectra Of Mass-Selected Al+_(Ch4)Nn=1-6clusters, B Poad, C Thompson, E Bieske

Infrared spectra are recorded for Al+–(CH4)n n = 1–6 clusters in the CH stretch region (2800–3100 cm−1). The spectra, which are obtained by monitoring photofragmentation in a tandem mass spectrometer, are dominated by a single, narrow band corresponding to the totally symmetric C–H stretching mode of the CH4 subunits (rendered infrared active through the interaction with the Al+ cation). This band shifts progressively to higher wavenumber as the clusters becomes larger, concomitant with a weakening of the intermolecular Al+⋯CH4 bonds. Supporting ab initio calculations for the n = …

Mixing Laser Spectroscopy And Mass Spectrometry- Infrared Spectra Of Metal Cation- Hydrogen Complexes, Vikoras Dryza, Berwyck Poad, Evan Bieske
Berwyck L. J. Poad
We describe recent experiments in which mass spectrometry and laser spectroscopy are combined to characterize Li(+)-H(2), Na(+)-H(2), B(+)-H(2), and Al(+)-H(2) complexes in the gas-phase. The infrared spectra, which feature full resolution of rotational sub-structure, are recorded by monitoring M(+) photo fragments as the infrared wavelength is scanned. The spectra deliver detailed information on the way in which a hydrogen molecule is attached to a metal cation including the intermolecular separation, the force constant for the intermolecular bond and the H-H stretching frequency. The complexes all possess T-shaped equilibrium geometries and display a clear correlation between the length and force constant …

The small heat shock protein, α-crystallin, plays a key role in maintaining lens transparency by chaperoning structurally compromised proteins. This is of particular importance in the human lens, where proteins are exposed to post-translational modifications over the life-time of an individual. Here, we examine the structural and functional consequences of one particular modification of αA-crystallin involving the truncation of 5 C-terminal residues (αA1–168). Using novel mass spectrometry approaches and established biophysical techniques, we show that αA1–168 forms oligomeric assemblies with a lower average molecular mass than wild-type αA-crystallin (αAWT). Also apparent from the mass spectra of both αAWT and αA1–168 …
