Glycans released from ovalbumin by PNGase F were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry using three different dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) matrix systems: 2,5-DHB, 2,6-DHB, and a 2,5-DHB/2,6-DHB binary matrix. Relative to the results obtained with the single-component matrices (2,5-DHB or 2,6-DHB), the 2,5-DHB/2,6-DHB binary matrix boasted lower background noise and higher sensitivity. A total of 16 glycan peaks were observed using the 2,5-DHB/2,6-DHB binary matrix, while only 10 and 9 glycan peaks were observed using the 2,5-DHB and 2,6-DHB matrices, respectively.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) analysis of ionic liquid matrices (ILMs) prepared using pyridine and dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), such as 2,3-DHB and 2,5-DHB, displayed an unconventional peak at m/z 232.0, which was regarded as [DHB+pyridine-H]⁺. The peak at m/z 232.0 was not observed from other ILMs prepared using other DHB isomers, such as 2,4-DHB, 2,6-DHB, 3,4-DHB, and 3,5-DHB. Two requirements to observe the peak at m/z 232.0 in a DHB/pyridine ILM are suggested. First, carboxyl and hydroxyl groups must be located ortho to each other. Second, the secondary hydroxyl group must be located at a carbon with a high electron density. Based on these two requirements, a potential mechanism for the generation of the peak at m/z 232.0 is suggested.

The effects of different dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) isomers, when used as matrix materials in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS), were investigated in analyses of polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymers. PEG polymers ranging from 400 to 8,000 Da were prepared in different DHB isomer matrices using solvent-based and solvent-free methods. PEG samples were detected only in matrices of 2,3-DHB, 2,5-DHB, and 2,6-DHB while the most intense peaks were observed using 2,6-DHB in both solvent-free and solvent-based preparations.

시드로포어인 2, 3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB)를 생산하는 Acinetobacter sp. B-W의 플라스미드를 분석한 결과, 20 kb 크기의 플라스미드를 함유하였다. 배양 온도 $43^{\circ}C$ 가 플라스미드가 제거된 돌연변이체 생산에 효과적이었다. 이 돌연변이체는 2,3-DHB 생산 능력을 소실하였으며, chrome azurol S (CAS) 아가 배지에서 시드로포어 생산이 검출되지 않았다. 포도당과 황산 망간을 함유한 배지에서 $28^{\circ}C$로 3일간 배양한 B-W 원 균주와 돌연변이체의 배양 상등액의 pH는 각각 4.5와 8.5로 나타났다. 돌연변이체에서는 ampicillin, actinomycin D, bacitracin, lincomycin과 vancomycin 같은 항생제에 대한 저항성이 사라졌으며, 이러한 항생제에 대한 최소 억제 농도(MIC)가 급격하게 감소하였다. B-W 균주에서 분리한 플라스미드로 대장균을 형질전환시킨 결과, 원 균주와 같은 크기의 플라스미드가 이 형질전환 대장균에서 발견되었다. 플라스미드가 제거된 돌연변이체에서는 플라스미드가 발견되지 않았다. 20 kb 크기의 플라스미드에 2,3-DHB 생산 유전자와 여러 항생제 저항성 유전자가 자리잡고 있는 것으로 추정된다.

포도당과 글루탐산을 함유한 배지에서 시드로포어인 2, 3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB)를 생산하는 Acinetobacter sp. B-W 균주를 글루탐산을 유일한 탄소원과 질소원으로 함유한 배지에 배양한 결과, 상등액에서 2, 3-DHB가 아닌 카테콜 형의 시드로포어를 생산하는 것으로 조사되었다. 글루탐산의 농도는 3%에서 시드로포어 생산이 최고로 나타났으며, 3% 보다 높은 농도에서는 감소하는 것으로 조사되었다. 글루탐산을 유일한 탄소원과 질소원으로 함유한 배지에서 자란 균주 B-W는 배양 온도 $28^{\circ}C$에서는 시드로포어를 생산하지만 $36^{\circ}C$에서는 생산하지 않았다. 또한 $10{\mu}M\;FeCl_3$를첨가한 배지에서는 시드로포어 생산이 완전히 억제되었다. 글루탐산 배지에서 생산된 균주 B-W의 시드로포어는 TLC 전개 용매 butanol: acetic acid: water =12:3:5에서 Rf치가 0.32로 나타나 Rf치가 0.82인 2, 3-DHB와는 다른 것으로 조사되었으며, 또한 항산화 활성도 없는 것으로 나타나 항산화 활성을 가진 2, 3-DHB와는 다른 시드로포어인 것으로 추정되었다.

UV-Vis 분광광도법과 시간분해 레이저 유도 형광분광법(TRLFS)을 이용하여 흄산의 모사 리간드로 사용한 2,6-Dihydroxybenzoate(DHB)와 U(VI)의 착물형성반응을 조사하였다. U(VI)-DHB 착물 고유의 전하이동 흡수 스펙트럼을 분석한 결과, 착물형성반응은 우라늄-리간드 비가 1:1 또는 1:2 착물을 형성하는 이중 평형반응이며, 산도에 따라 착물종의 분포가 변한다는 것을 밝혔다. 계산된 착물형성상수 (log $K_1$ and log $K_2$)는 $12.4{\pm}0.1$과 $11.4{\pm}0.1$이다. 이에 더하여, TRLFS 방법으로 조사한 결과, DHB는 U(VI) 화학종들의 형광 소광제(quencher)로서 역할을 한다는 것을 확인하였다. 특히, 확인된 U(VI) 화학종 모두(${UO_2}^{2+}$, $(UO_2)_2{(OH)_2}^{2+}$과 $(UO_2)_3(OH)_5{^+})$에서 정적 (static) 및 동적 (dynamic) 소광작용이 공존하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 시간분해 형광 스펙트럼으로부터 리간드 농도에 따른 U(VI) 화학종의 형광세기와 형광수명을 측정하였으며, Stern-Volmer 식을 이용하여 분석하였다. 결정된 정적소광계수(KS)는 ${UO_2}^{2+}$, $(UO_2)_2{(OH)_2}^{2+}$ 과 $(UO_2)_3(OH)_5+$에 대하여 각각 $4.2{\pm}0.1$, $4.3{\pm}0.1$ 과 $4.34{\pm}0.08$이다. Stern-Volmer 식을 이용한 분석 결과, 단일 또는 이중 배위자 구조(mono- and bi-dentate)의 U(VI)-DHB 착물이 모두 정적소광효과에 관여하는 바닥상태 착물임을 확인하였다.

Characterization of the various chemical aspects of composite polymers is important for quality control of manufactured polymers. In this study, we compared three suitable matrices (α cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid [CHCA], 2,5 dihydroxy benzoic acid [2,5-DHB], and dithranol), to characterize various synthetic polymers by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Although the spectra obtained with the CHCA and 2,5-DHB matrices were generally good, in certain samples ghost peaks disappeared only when dithranol was used as the matrix. Furthermore, we examined the use of sodium trifluoroacetate (NaTFA) as an additive to reduce interference by metals and copolymers in the spectra. In conclusion, appropriate selection of a matrix, according to the characteristics of the polymer, and the use of additives to improve sensitivity are important considerations for polymer analysis and development.

Polyhexamethylene guanidine (PHMG) polymers used as an active ingredient in an antibacterial humidifier disinfectant were reported to cause harm to the human health when inhaled, although physical contact with this material was known to present low toxicity to humans. It is therefore necessary to develop an optimal analysis method which enables detection and analysis of PHMG polymers. MALDI-TOF investigations of PHMG are performed with a variety of matrices, and it is found that CHCA and 2,5-DHB are excellent matrices which well reflects the polymer population even at high mass. For the provided PHMG sample, the number-average ($M_n$) and weight-average ($M_w$) molecular masses were determined to be 744.8 and 810.7, respectively, when the CHCA was used as a matrix. The rank of the matrices in terms of averaged molecular weight was CHCA ~2,5-DHB > 5-NSA > DHAP, THAP > ATT > IAA ~ super-DHB ~ HABA. In addition, PSD of the PHMG oligomer ions exhibited a few unique fragmenation characteristics. The formation of a- and c-type fragments was the major fragmentation pathway, and the 25-Da loss peaks generally accompanied a- and c-type fragments.

A comprehensive comparative investigation of small carbohydrates in laser desorption ionization was performed on supporting materials composed of sodiated 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), carbon nanotubes, an ionic liquid matrix of DHB-pyridine, a binary matrix of DHB-aminopyrazine, zinc oxide nanoparticles, and gold nanoparticles. The abundance of $[M+Na]^+$ ions, where M is glucose or sucrose, was compared for each supporting material. The highest sensitivity for both glucose and sucrose, with a detection limit of 3 pmol, was observed with carbon nanotubes. Both carbon nanotubes and the ionic liquid matrix exhibited the highest reproducibility.

The effectiveness of tertiary matrices composed of the combination of three common matrices (dihydrobenzoic acid (DHB), ${\alpha}$-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), and sinapinic acid (SA)) was compared with that of single or binary matrices in the analysis of polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymers ranging from 1400 to 10000 Da using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). A tertiary matrix of 2,5-DHB+CHCA+SA was the most effective in terms of S/N ratios. CHCA and CHCA+SA produced the highest S/N ratios among the single matrices and the binary matrices, respectively. The improvement observed when using a tertiary matrix in analyses of PEG polymers by MALDI-TOF MS is believed to be due to the uniform morphology of the MALDI sample spots and synergistic effects arising from the mixture of the three matrix materials.
