ESI mass spectrometry was used to assess the binding of 13-substituted, 5-nitro-2-phenylindolyl- and 2-naphthalenyl-based berberine derivatives to inter- and intramolecular G-quadruplex DNA molecules. In contrast with the parent berberine, the compounds showed selectivity for quadruplex over duplex DNA and stabilised the quadruplex structure. They represent a new class of quadruplex DNA-selective ligands. © 2010 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

The analysis of complex volatile mixtures by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is a time-consuming process. It involves separation and identification of the components based on their retention times and fragmentation patterns, followed by determination of their relative percentages from integration of their peak areas. Herein we show that multivariate statistical analysis of the relative abundances of the m/z values obtained from the average mass scans (AMS) of the complex mixture is a faster and potentially more reliable method of assessing these mixtures. To achieve this, 15 model complex mixtures, were prepared comprising varying amounts of 10 different constituents. The AMS …
