Abstract Background: The alcohol biomarker phosphatidylethanol (PEth) comprises a group of ethanol-derived phospholipids formed from phosphatidylcholine by phospholipase D. The PEth molecular species have a common phosphoethanol head group onto which 2 fatty acid moieties are attached. We developed an electrospray ionization (ESI) LC-MS method for qualitative and quantitative measurement of different PEth species in human blood. Methods: We subjected a total lipid extract of whole blood to HPLC gradient separation on a C4 column and performed LC-ESI-MS analysis using selected ion monitoring of deprotonated molecules for the PEth species and phosphatidylpropanol (internal standard). Identification of individual PEth species was based on ESI–tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analysis of product ions. Results: The fatty acid moieties were the major product ions of PEth, based on comparison with PEth-16:0/16:0, 18:1/18:1, and 16:0/18:1 reference material. For LC-MS analysis of different PEth species in blood, we used a calibration curve covering 0.2–7.0 μmol/L PEth-16:0/18:1. The lower limit of quantitation of the method was <0.1 μmol/L, and intra- and interassay CVs were <9% and <11%. In blood samples collected from 38 alcohol patients, the total PEth concentration ranged between 0.1 and 21.7 μmol/L (mean 8.9). PEth-16:0/18:1 and 16:0/18:2 were the predominant molecular species, accounting for approximately 37% and 25%, respectively, of total PEth. PEth-16:0/20:4 and mixtures of 18:1/18:1 plus 18:0/18:2 (not separated using selected ion monitoring because of identical molecular masses) and 16:0/20:3 plus 18:1/18.2 made up approximately 13%, 12%, and 8%. Conclusions: This LC-MS method allows simultaneous qualitative and quantitative measurement of several PEth molecular species in whole blood samples.

Many industries apply pressure tanks for the storage of various types of liquids [1]. It can be toxic, chemically active liquids or food products. Storage conditions of these liquids can have a wide range of pressures and temperatures; therefore it is preferable to control the liquids levels from the outside of the tank. The most optimal solution in this case is the ultrasonic pulse time method [2-6], which is also widely used in robotics [7], fishing, shipping [8-9], archeology [10-11], non-destructive testing [12-17] and manometric method [18].

Sociability is a complex, multifactorial trait. Its importance is underscored by a multitude of negative physical and mental health effects related to loneliness and social isolation. However, current measures of sociability primarily rely on subjective recall and self- report, which have inherent weaknesses and limitations. Although objective and automatic measurements could help to avoid some of these issues, they are still in early stages of development. In this article, the authors review past and present methods of measuring sociability and social interactions. This encompasses both subjective and objective subsets of qualitative and quantitative measurement modalities to gain a broader, more accurate perspective on sociability. Through an analysis of advantages and disadvantages of measurement methods within these categories, a foundational knowledge of sociability measurement can be understood. Utilizing current technology and research methods holds promise to more accurately represent individuals' social networks and social patterns.

Simultaneous Testing

We used the micro- and macroimmunodiffusion test for the qualitative and quantitative measurement of anti - P. brasiliensis antibodies in serum of patients with paracoccidioidomycosis. All 103 paracoccidioidomycosis sera (100%) were positive in the micro test versus 87% positivity index in the macrotest. All 83 control sera from patients with other diseases were negative in both tests. Titers of the positive sera tended to be higher in the microtest, which revealed sharper and easier to read precipiting bands. Microimmunodiffusion is simple to be performed, requires a minimum amount of reagents and allows the simultaneous testing of 102 sera. It may replace the macrotest specially in laboratories dealing with great serologic routine.
