Electrospray ionization and matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometric analysis of extrapolysaccharides of Escherichia coli

Abstract: This is a preliminary study reporting for the first time the feasibility of ESI-MS and MALDI-MS techniques for the analysis of bacterial EPS without prior complicated purification and separation methodologies.

“…A common feature between positive and negative spectra is represented by the occurrence of very intense ions at m / z 1293.59 (positive) and m / z 1291.59 (negative). This peak could be probably ascribed to the class of membrane extrapolysaccharides which usually protect bacteria from predators and environmental stresses (certain attribution needs of course further investigations by tandem MS analysis). Contrary to these findings, investigations carried out on lipids extracted from E .…”

“…Chemical extraction methods were found to be more efficient than the physical extraction methods and of the chemical extractants, EDTA was found more effective than formaldehyde and gave more polysaccharide peaks using both ESI‐ and MALDI‐TOF analysis (using CHCA as the matrix). Detection by ESI‐MS was very effective for compounds <300 Da whereas MALDI‐TOF MS was found to be more suitable for rapid analysis of the polysaccharides above 400 Da (Gedda et al, ).…”

“…For instance, CdS@MPA causes quantitative degradation of extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) of Escherichia coli. 69 To investigate the cell viability of CdS@CTS against the two pathogenic bacteria, the optical density method was used and the optical density (OD 600 ) was measured at 600 nm. The method is based on the turbidity measurements which give signals corresponding to the bacteria cell numbers.…”
