| Popis: | Tandem liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry coupled to online radioactive material detection (LC/RAM/MS/MS) is a technique that is used routinely for in vivo and in vitro drug metabolism studies and allows for a simultaneous correlation between radiochemical peaks and mass spectral data. The compound diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (DGBE), a component of a commercially available scintillation cocktail for RAM analysis, was identified as a source of overwhelming chemical noise in a mass spectrometer which was used in an LC/RAM/MS/MS configuration. In this report, we describe the identification of DGBE as the source of the chemical noise and the methods that were used to minimize the exposure of the mass spectrometer to volatile components of the scintillation cocktail. |
