Abstract An inductively coupled mass spectrometric method was developed for the direct determination of iodine in urine. The application of isotope dilution analysis with added 129I offers new possibilities for automatic and accurate determinations. The sample preparation consists of dilution with an ammonia solution containing 129I. The validation was made by comparison with the results obtained in another laboratory by a spectrophotometric method based on the Sandell–Kolthoff reaction. Different regression models, including maximum likelihood estimation, were used to compare the methods. None of the models revealed analytical bias between the two methods. The urine samples analyzed for validation were from three persons previously exposed to an iodine bath and covered a concentration range of 0.2 to 2.8 μmol/L. A detection limit of 0.02 μmol/L, a within-run CV of 2.5%, and a between-run CV of 11.9% were estimated for the proposed method.

Catalytic deoxygenation of coal enhances the stability and combustion performance of coal-derived liquids. However, determination of the selectivity of removal of oxygen atoms incorporated in or residing outside of aromatic rings is challenging. This limits the ability to evaluate the success of catalytic deoxygenation processes. A mass spectrometric method, in-source collision-activated dissociation (ISCAD), combined with high resolution product ion detection, is demonstrated to allow the determination of whether the oxygen atoms in aromatic compounds reside outside of aromatic rings or are part of the aromatic system, because alkyl chains can be removed from aromatic cores via ISCAD. Application of this method for the analysis of a subbituminous coal treated using a supported catalyst revealed that the catalytic treatment reduced the number of oxygen-containing heteroaromatic rings but not the number of oxygen atoms residing outside the aromatic rings.<br>
