제목 MALDI-MS based quantitative analysis for ketone containing bacterial quorum sensing molecules
초록  Gram-negative bacteria secrete N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) as quorum sensing modulators. Although various analytical techniques have been developed for detection and quantitation of AHLs used cell-to-cell communication, only a few methods have been applied to AHL identification.
 Here, We developed a highly sensitive and reliable MALDI-MS based 3-oxo AHL quantitation method by introducing Girard’s reagent T (GT) to produce a permanent cationic charge state [M]+ at the ketone group of AHLs. After extracting AHLs from the supernatant of bacterial cultures using ethyl acetate, the extracts were subsequently derivatized with GT. The chemical derivatization of 3-oxo AHLs dramatically enhanced sensitivity by lowering the limit of detection and limit of quantitation and allowed more accurate quantitative analysis. This method may be applied for developing high-throughput and sensitive detection methods of quorum sensing signal molecules in biofilm-related clinical applications.
