Metal chelates with biomolecules are increasingly used in animal supplementation to increase the bioavailability of essential trace elements. However, the transfer of the chelates is not well understood and speciation studies may bring a comprehensive insight to further investigate the biological uptake mechanism(s) implicated. An analytical method was developed for the characterization of the water-soluble metal complexes in animal feed supplements obtained by reaction of a metal salt with a non-GMO soybean enzymatic digest. The method was based on fractionation of the extract by size-exclusion chromatography followed by the analysis of the metal-containing fraction by reversed-phase nanoHPLC with parallel ICP MS and electrospray MS/MS detection. The metal complexes were identified in the mass spectra owing to the Cu characteristic isotopic pattern; the complexation was corroborated by the presence of a peak corresponding to the non-metallated peptide. The study demonstrated the feasibility of SEC-ICP MS to produce characteristic metal (Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe) distribution patterns, which can be of interest to test batch-to-batch reproducibility and to determine the origin of the supplement. The use of the method could be extended to animal feeds prepared using the metal-chelated complexes. Electrospray MS/MS allowed the identification of a number of Cu complexes with peptides. Four different structure conformations were modeled by means of molecular mechanics investigations to assess the chelation stability.

Metallomics
Metallomics publishes cutting-edge investigations aimed at elucidating the identification, distribution, dynamics, role and impact of metals and metalloids in biological systems. Studies that address the “what, where, when, how and why” of these inorganic elements in cells, tissues, organisms, and various environmental niches are welcome, especially those employing multidisciplinary approaches drawn from the analytical, bioinorganic, medicinal, environmental, biophysical, cell biology, plant biology and chemical biology communities. We are particularly interested in articles that enhance our chemical and/or physical understanding of the molecular mechanisms of metal-dependent life processes, and those that probe the common space between metallomics and other ‘omics approaches to uncover new insights into biological processes. Metallomics seeks to position itself at the forefront of those advances in analytical chemistry destined to clarify the enormous complexity of biological systems. As such, we particularly welcome those papers that outline cutting-edge analytical technologies, e.g., in the development and application of powerful new imaging, spectroscopic and mass spectrometric modalities. Work that describes new insights into metal speciation, trafficking and dynamics in complex systems or as a function of microenvironment are also strongly encouraged. Studies that examine the interconnectivity of metal-dependent processes with systems level responses relevant to organismal health or disease are also strongly encouraged, for example those that probe the effect of chemical exposure on metal homeostasis or the impact of metal-based drugs on cellular processes.
