Functional group derivatization reactions occur in the course of microdroplet/surface collisions ambient ionization process desorption electrospray (DESI). The unique environment microdroplet causes rate enhancements as much several orders magnitude typical bimolecular that proceed through either cationic or anionic intermediates. evaporating charged differs from bulk: (i) pH solution moves towards extremes, (ii) concentrations reagents increase, (iii) relative surface area increases and...
The present paper describes the successful one-pot synthesis of self-stabilized particles composed amphiphilic block copolymers based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) obtained by polymerization-induced self-assembly. First, controlled radical polymerization MAA is performed in water using RAFT process taking advantage our recent results showing [ChaducMacromolecules 2012, 45, 1241−1247]. so-formed hydrophilic macroRAFT agents are then chain-extended situ with a hydrophobic monomer to form...
For the first time, electrospray ionization efficiency (IE) scales in positive and negative mode are united into a single system enabling direct comparison of IE values across modes.

Allelic polymorphism of the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene (ApoE ε2, ApoE ε3 and ε4 alleles) gives rise to three protein isoforms (ApoE2, ApoE3 ApoE4) that differ by 1 or 2 amino acids. Inheritance allele is a risk factor for developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). The potential diagnostic value levels in biological fluids (i.e. cerebrospinal fluid, plasma serum) distinguishing between AD patients healthy elderly subjects subject great controversy. Although recent study reported subnormal total...
Desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) mass spectrometry (MS) is used in an imaging mode to interrogate the lipid profiles of 15 μm thin tissue cross sections injured rat spinal cord and normal healthy tissue.

Abstract Metalloenzymes preorganize the reaction environment to steer substrate(s) along required coordinate. Here, we show that phosphine ligands selectively facilitate protonation of binuclear silver hydride cations, [LAg 2 (H)] + by optimizing geometry active site. This is a key step in selective, catalysed extrusion carbon dioxide from formic acid, HO CH, with important applications (for example, hydrogen storage). Gas-phase ion-molecule reactions, collision-induced dissociation (CID),...
