A new Ultrasound-assisted Extraction (UAE) of phenolic compounds from corn (Zea mays) has been optimized by means of chemometrics tool. The proposed method was validated and successfully applied to the analysis of phenolics content in several corn cultivars.

This poster presents our comparative metabolite profiling analysis of eight model pharmaceutical compounds with various biotransformation reactions using a functionally stable model of primary hepatocytes [micropatterned co-cultures (MPCCs)] in parallel with the traditional liver microsomal and suspension hepatocyte systems.

We investigated the ability of quantitative real-time PCR, using plasmids calibrants, together with the triploid maize seed endosperm and the haploid pollen, to get good estimates for the copy number of a transgene in relation to the copy number of a species specific gene as a mean to distinguish between pollen and flour from maize.

In this poster, a series of proteins and their oligomers were characterized using SEC-MALS with UV and RI detection. The monomer molecular weights are measured and compared with those from column calibration. The molecular weights of their oligomers are also compared with column calibration and the differences explored.

A GC/MS or LC/MS workflow for Metabolomics applications includes a number of distinct steps: experimental design, sampling, sample preparation, data acquisition, data processing, deconvolution, identification and data interpretation.

The MsXelerator software includes Quality Control procedures and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to properly control each step in this workflow and to obtain reliable results for both quantitation and identification.

The following case series documents three females admitted to an in-patient unit. All three females had positive HD gene tests and all three had diverse forensic histories. It is recognised that males with HD have an increased forensic risk (Jensen, 1998) but these three cases highlight that HD may also be a forensic risk factor in females.

Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) are foodborne carcinogens present in cooked meat and fish, mainly. Metabolites of HCAs have been determined in urine from volunteers following a controlled meal.

Purpose
To investigate a high throughput workflow for metabolite profiling using a novel human in vitro system and advanced UHPLC-MS/MS techniques to accurately predict human metabolite profile in vivo.

Purpose: To develop a reliable, quicker, and cost-saving in vitro method to accurately predict major human metabolite profile in vivo and to de-risk disproportional or unique human metabolites before a drug candidate nomination

Purpose: To investigate Sequential Window Acquisition of all Theoretical fragment ion spectra (SWATH™) based integrated qualitative and quantitative (qual/quant) assay for simultaneous metabolic stability and metabolite profiling assessments.
