If anyone has done GCMS for tetrodotoxin detection, please help me to know the compound names for the characteristic fragments of 2-amino 6-hydroxymethyl 8 hydroxyquinazoline that forms peaks at 376, 392 and 407 m/z. I need to find out in the library to interpret my results.
Dear Sir. Concerning your issue about the GCMS for tetrodotoxin (TTX) detection . Mass fragment ions at m/z 376, 392, and 407 which are characteristic of the C9-base. Those peaks from TTX fraction elicited essentially the mass spectra which were featured by fragment ions at m/z. 407 (molecular peak), 392 (base peak), and 376 (see Fig. 5 in the article in the below link). I think the following article in the below link will help you in your analysis:
