Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For plasma stability, LC-MS studies were performed with an ABSciex Triple TOF 4600 (ABSciex, Darmstadt, Germany) combined with a micro-LC Eksigent (Eksigent, Darmstadt, Germany) and an autosampler set at 5 °C and a thermostated column compartment. Electrospray ionization (ESI) in negative mode was used for the MS experiments. The data acquisition method consisted of a TOF-MS full scan m/z 50–850 Da and several IDA-TOF-MS/MS (Information Dependent Acquisition) product ion scans using 40 V Collision Energy (CE) with 15 V (Collision Energy Spread) CES used for each candidate ion in each data acquisition cycle (1091). Halo C18 2.7 μm, 90 Å, 0.5 × 50 mm2 from Eksigent was used as a column and the mobile phase consisted of a gradient (A: acetonitrile/0.01% formic acid/isopropanol 80/20 v/v; B: H2O/0.01% formic acid). The elution gradient adopted started with 5% of phase B for 0.5 min, gradually increasing to 98% in the next 7.5 min. These conditions were kept constant for 0.5 min, and then the initial conditions (95% solvent B, 5% solvent A) were restored within 0.1 min to re-equilibrate the column for 1.5 min for the next injection (flow rate 55 µL/min). The data acquisition was carried out with MultiQuant 3.0.2 and PeakView 2.1 from AB SCIEX (ABSciex, Darmstadt, Germany).

The high-resolution mass spectra were measured on an AB SCIEX Triple TOF 4600 (Tokyo, Japan). Diffraction data were collected at 93 K under a cold N2-gas stream on a Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy-S/Mo system (λ=0.71073 Å (Mo-Kα), Tokyo, Japan). The integrated data were analyzed by using a Yadokari-XG software package [24 (link)]. The structures were solved with the ShelXT structure solution program [25 (link)] using Intrinsic Phasing and refined with the ShelXL refinement package [26 (link)] using least-squares minimization. Anisotropic refinement was performed for all non-hydrogen atoms, and all the hydrogen atoms were put in calculated positions. The geometrical optimization was carried out at the CAM-B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory implemented on the Gaussian 09 package [27 ].

Timing: 2 days

Note: Molecular weight is the primary parameter in the identification of peptides and proteins and can be determined by time of flight (TOF) mass spectrometry (MS). The principle of TOF is that ions will accelerate through the flight pipeline under the action of electric field, which will be then detected by the detector according to different flight time. The mass/charge ratio of ions (M/Z) is proportional to the flight time of ions.

Mass spectrometry analyses of CPP-BoNTA proteins (Figure 4).

Prepare 10–50 μg of protein samples with a purity of more than 90%.

Use AB SCIEX TripleTOF™ 4600 coupled directly to a Nexera UHPLC LC-30A(SHIMADZU) with a 100 mm × 2.15 μm ACE C4 column for all LC-MS/MS analyses.

Set the mobile phase A to be H2O with 0.1 FA, the mobile phase B to be CH3CN with 0.1 FA, and the flow rate to be 0.4 mL/min.

Use Peakviewer software for database searching and spectral interpretation.

Extracts were analyzed using a NEXERA UHPLC system (Shimadzu, Tokyo, Japan) and the Luna® Omega C-18 column (Shimadzu, Tokyo, Japan). The linear gradient for separation purposes consisted of water (A) and acetonitrile (B), both with 0.1% formic acid. B eluent was held at 5% for 0.5 min and was allowed to reach 17.5% at 5 min; then, it was increased to 45% in 5 min and held at this % for the other 2 min. Finally, it was augmented to 95% in 1 min, and following another min at 95%, initial conditions were restored in 1 min, allowing for the system to re-equilibrate for 1 min. The flow rate was 0.5 mL/min. The injection volume was 2.0 μL. MS analysis was performed using the AB SCIEX Triple TOF® 4600 (AB Sciex, Concord, ON, Canada), equipped with a DuoSprayTM ion source, operating in negative ESI mode. A full scan TOF survey (170–1700 Da) and eight IDA (information-dependent acquisition) experiments were performed using the following parameters: curtain gas 35 psi; nebulizer gas 60 psi; heated gas 60 psi; ion spray voltage −4.5 kV; interface heater temperature 600 °C; declustering potential −80V; collision energy −45 ± 10 V.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In order to demonstrate that the disulphide linkage in BGL-ASP batches were highly similar to reference insulin aspart, a comparative peptide mapping analysis was performed wherein insulin aspart was digested with V8/Endoproteinase GluC (Cat no: P2922, Sigma-Aldrich) enzyme and the mixture generated was analyzed under reducing and non-reducing conditions using Liquid Chromatography-Electron Spray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry (LC–ESI–MS/MS). The reduction reaction was set up in the presence of Dithiothreitol (DTT) (Cat No: 10197777001, Sigma-Aldrich). The comparison between the theoretical and generated molecular weights for the peptides, assisted in demonstrating the presence of the native disulphide linkages. The untreated insulin aspart mass was also determined and compared with the innovator product. The column with the dimensions C18, 150 × 2.1 mm, 3 μm, (Cat No: TA12S05-15Q1PTH, YMC) was used for LC–MS based analysis. The detection wavelength was set at 215 nm, flow rate of 0.2 ml/min. The AB SCIEX Triple TOF 4600 was set to mass range of m/z 200–2000 Da, source temperature of 450 °C and collision energy of 35 V.
