Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Environmental samples (particulate material > 0.2 µm) were analyzed for cobalamins and pseudocobalamins using an organic solvent extraction paired with LC-MS as described in Heal et al. 2014.

Instruments

High-Performance Liquid Chromatograph

Supplied Name: HPLC (Agilent 1100) and UPLC Waters Acquity

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: High-Performance Liquid Chromatograph

Acronym: HPLC

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB11/

Generic Description:

A High-performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) is a type of liquid chromatography used to separate compounds that are dissolved in solution. HPLC instruments consist of a reservoir of the mobile phase, a pump, an injector, a separation column, and a detector. Compounds are separated by high pressure pumping of the sample mixture onto a column packed with microspheres coated with the stationary phase. The different components in the mixture pass through the column at different rates due to differences in their partitioning behavior between the mobile liquid phase and the stationary phase.

Mass Spectrometer

Supplied Name: a quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer (Waters Xevo G2-S QTOF)

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Mass Spectrometer

Acronym: Mass Spec

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB16/

Generic Description:

General term for instruments used to measure the mass-to-charge ratio of ions; generally used to find the composition of a sample by generating a mass spectrum representing the masses of sample components.
