高效液相色谱-串联质谱法测定葡萄酒中的5种人工合成甜味剂

建立了测定葡萄酒中安赛蜜、糖精钠、甜蜜素、阿斯巴甜和纽甜等5种人工合成甜味剂的高效液相色谱-电喷雾电离串联质谱(HPLC-ESI MS/MS)分析方法。采用Ultimate C18色谱柱,对流动相的组成、柱温以及质谱的各种参数进行了优化和探讨。结果表明,以含0.1%(体积分数)甲酸的20 mmol/L甲酸铵缓冲液(pH 3.8)和甲醇为流动相,梯度洗脱,柱温为45 ℃下,可以在5 min内完成5种人工合成甜味剂的基线分离。在ESI负离子模式下,采用多反应监测模式进行测定时,安赛蜜、糖精钠、甜蜜素、阿斯巴甜和纽甜的检出限分别为0.6、5、1、0.8和0.2 μg/L,回收率为87.2%～103%,相对标准偏差不高于1.2%。该方法快捷、准确,灵敏度高,可用于葡萄酒及其他复杂基质食品中低剂量、复合甜味剂的测定。

Determination of five synthetic sweeteners in wines using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

A high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI MS/MS) method for the determination of five synthetic sweeteners (acesulfame, sodium saccharin, sodium cyclamate, aspartame and neotame) in wines has been developed. The HPLC separation was carried out on an Ultimate C18 column (100 mm×2.1 mm, 3 μm). Several parameters, including the composition and pH of the mobile phase, column temperature and the monitor ions, were optimized for improving the chromatographic performance and the sensitivity of determination. The results demonstrated that the separation can be completed in less than 5 min by gradient elution with 20 mmol/L ammonium formate and 0.1%(v/v) formic acid (pH 3.8) and methanol as the mobile phase. The column temperature was kept at 45 ℃. When the analytes were detected by ESI--MS/MS under multiple reaction monitoring mode, the detection limits were 0.6, 5, 1, 0.8 and 0.2 μg/L for acesulfame, sodium saccharin, sodium cyclamate, aspartame and neotame, respectively. The average recoveries ranged from 87.2% to 103%. The relative standard deviations were not more than 1.2%. This method is rapid, accurate, highly sensitive and suitable for the quality control of low concentration of the synthetic sweeteners, which are illegally added to wines and other foods with complex matrices.
