Abstract
Bradykinin and substance P have been derivatised with cyclic diethylenetriaminepentaacetic anhydride (cDTPA) and subsequently labelled with natural and isotopically enriched Eu3+. This enabled the detection and relative quantitation of the peptides using element-selective detection by high-performance liquid chromatography inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LC–ICP–MS). Relative quantitation was achieved by differentially labelling two peptide sources, after derivatisation with cDTPA, using natural and enriched 151Eu respectively. The 151Eu:153Eu isotope ratio was measured and used to calculate the original peptide ratio. The measured ratios came within 5.2% of the known ratio. Derivatisation and chelation reactions were additionally confirmed using LC–ESI–MS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
