- ■Title
- Environmental dynamics of femto-level isotopes with Accelerator Mass Spectrometry 2
- ■Organizer
- Hiroyuki MATSUZAKI (Univ Tokyo) / Yasuto MIYAKE (RIKEN)
- ■Scope
- The term “Femto-level isotopes” means extremely rare isotopes of which the isotopic ratio to the stable isotope reaches 1E-15 order. They are typically produced by the interaction of the cosmic-rays and artificial nuclear reaction, mainly fission. Femto-level isotopes take important role in the analysis of paleo-environment/climate change, serve as tracers for atmosphere/ocean circulation. Femto-level isotopes are also good indicators for the definition of the “anthropocene” geological era in which human activity actually affects the environment. We held a similar session in two years ago. This session surveys the achievements both in technical developments and scientific research since the previous session and prospects the future direction.

- ■Scope
- Natural compounds often have unique structure and biological activity, which have been useful as a lead compound for development of drugs and agrochemicals. Foods also contain many functional components, whose structural analysis and quantitation is important for evaluation of its functionality. Mass spectrometry has been played a crucial role in both qualitative and quantitative analysis of natural compounds including food components. However, it is still difficult to determine structures of unknown compounds only by mass spectrometry, which will be facilitated by development of spectral database and prediction software. In this session, we will focus on the mass spectrometric analysis of natural compounds including food components, and discuss novel techniques, technologies and software to contribute to the advancement of this research field.

- ■Title
- Current status and future challenges of non-targeted metabolomics
- ■Organizer
- Yoshihiro IZUMI (Kyushu Univ) / Akiyoshi HIRAYAMA (Keio Univ)
- ■Scope
- In recent years, more than 1000 metabolite peaks have been detected in various biological samples because of the rapid development of high-resolution mass spectrometry and data mining techniques. However, only approximately 10% of metabolites can be identified in the detected peaks. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a methodology that enables structure estimation of metabolite peaks obtained by non-target metabolomic analysis. Furthermore, it is important to proceed with structure estimation (identification) of metabolites that can be candidates for new bioactive metabolites or biomarkers among unknown metabolites. In this session, we would like to introduce the current state of structure estimation methods for unknown metabolites by mass spectrometry and discuss future issues.

- ■Title
- Mass spectrometry for analyzing biological macromolecules
- ■Organizer
- Kentaro ISHII (Osaka Univ) / Kazumi SAIKUSA (AIST)
- ■Scope
- Biological macromolecules have been analyzed by mass spectrometry (MS) at the level of fragmented-peptide for a long time. Now even supramolecular complexes such as a protein complex and a virus can be analyzed conserving inter-subunit interactions (native MS, ion-mobility MS, charge-detection MS). Moreover, hydrogen-deuterium exchange MS (HDX-MS) and MS conjugated with chemical modifications are performed to determine a protein-protein interface. Meanwhile, in the field of biologics represented by therapeutic antibodies, a multi-attribute method primarily based on peptide mapping MS was proposed for the quality control. In the near future, various conventional methods used for biologics quality control might be replaced with MS. New methodologies based on MS have been developed, and as a result, targets have been widened. In this session, we will discuss the structural information and methods in the current mass spectrometry of biological macromolecules.

- 3C-O15
- ■Title
- Environmental mass spectrometry
- ■Organizer
- Hirokazu TAKANASHI (Kagoshima Univ) / Atsushi YAMAMOTO (Tottori Univ Env Stud)
- ■Scope
- In a research field of environmental analysis or environmental protection technology development, trace pollutant determination in complex matrix are needed. In another field of exploratory research into emerging contaminants or non-targeted analysis, determination of molecular formulae, elucidation of chemical structures, and database-matching of targeted molecules are needed. Mass Spectrometry (MS) is one of the promising ways to achieve these: its high detection sensitivity and compatibility with various separation techniques enabled itself to prevail in chemical engineering. On the other hand, its prevalence in research and development is still in progress and further communication among researchers is needed, therefore, the objective of this session is to discuss and share actual applications of MS to research and development among participants.

- ■Title
- Issues and solutions in quantitative analysis using LC / MS
- ■Organizer
- Futoshi SATO (Nihon Waters) / Takeshi SERINO (Agilent)
- ■Invited
- Naoki SUGIMOTO (Natl Inst Health Sci)
- ■Scope
- LC / MS is used for quantitative analysis in various fields, but requirements for quantitative analysis, for example the precision, sensitivity, dynamic range, and number of target compounds, differ depending on the field. As a result, method validation such as matrix effect, robustness, and reproducibility, as well as the selection and handling of reference materials and internal standards that are the basis for quantitative values are different.
This session will focus on routine quantitative analysis and share issues and solutions. We will have three invited speakers talks, two speakers from pharmaceutical and food / environmental analysis as representative fields for quantitative analysis, and another one speaker on standard substances that are the basis for quantitative analysis. After that it will be followed by general discussion including participants. - ■Keywords
