“…Subsequently, the use of reclaimed water for irrigation purposes poses a risk for NAM contamination of soils. Further, NDMA contamination of soil can stem from agrochemical‐specific reactions 66,67 and aviation‐related environmental pollution, 68 highlighting a need for effective screening of NAMs in soil matrices. To demonstrate the utility of FCSI‐MS in this area of concern, loam soil standards spiked with NDMA, NDEA, and NDBA were analyzed; for this study, NDMA concentration in the soil was 40 ppm, with NDEA and NDBA present at 20 ppm.…”

RationaleThe burgeoning concern of N‐nitrosamine (NAM) contamination found in various pharmaceutical compositions has increased the demand for rapid and reliable screening methods to better assess the breadth of the problem. These carcinogenic compounds are also found in food, water, and soil, and they have been used in poison‐related homicides.MethodsA combination of complementary, ambient ionization methods, paper spray ionization (PSI) and filter cone spray ionization (FCSI)‐mass spectrometry (MS), was characterized towards trace‐level residue screening of select NAMs (e.g., N‐nitrosodimethylamine, N‐nitrosodiethylamine, N‐nitrosodibutylamine) directly from complex and problematic matrices of interest, including prescription and over‐the‐counter tablets, drinking water, soil, and consumable goods. Spectral data for analyte confirmation and detection limit studies were collected using a Thermo LCQ Fleet ion trap mass spectrometer.ResultsPSI‐MS and FCSI‐MS readily produced mass spectral data marked by their simplicity (e.g., predominantly protonated molecular ions observed) and congruence with traditional electrospray ionization mass spectra in under 2 min. per sample. Both methods proved robust to the complex matrices tested, yielding ion signatures for target NAMs, as well as active pharmaceutical ingredients for analyzed tablets, flavorants inherent to food products, etc. Low part‐per‐million detection limits were observed but were shown dependent on sample composition.ConclusionsPSI‐MS and FCSI‐MS were successful in detecting trace‐level NAMS in complex liquid‐ and solid‐phase matrices with little to no prior preparation. This work suggests that these methodologies can provide a means for assessing problematic pharmaceutical adulterants/degradants for expedited quality control, as well as enhancing environmental stewardship efforts and forensic investigations.

“…Pyrogenic impact zones covered a total area of about 950 m 2 at the site where the spherical fuel tanks fell. Traditionally, among all kind of aerospace transportation impact, the greatest public attention has been attracted to pollution of ecosystems with highly toxic carcinogenic rocket propellants namely UDMH [ 16 , 17 ]. At the falling site of fairing, due to the absence of contamination of ecosystems by rocket propellants (based on the results of the environmental impact assessment in October 2018), subsequent monitoring of soil properties was not initiated.…”
