The use of linear ion trap for qualitative analysis of phytochemicals in Korean ginseng tea

A new approach to qualitative analysis of ginsenosides in challenging matrices was developed on the basis of high‐performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. Using the extracts from samples of ginseng tea, the approach was validated. Analysis of extracts was carried out using a reversed‐phase chromatography with SB‐C₁₈ sorbent. For compound identification, electrospray ionization and a quadrupole/linear ion trap mass‐spectrometer in different modes were used. A meticulous study of the fragmentation of ginsenosides in the linear ion trap and its application for analysis of these compounds was performed in this work. The accuracy of the identification was proven with standards of ginsenosides Rb1, Rg1, Re, Rf, Rd, Rb2, Rb3 and Rc. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Identification and quantification of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid in Chinese herbs by liquid chromatography-ion trap mass spectrometry

A rapid and sensitive method for the identification and quantification of ursolic acid (UA) and oleanolic acid (OA) in Chinese herbs is described. The method combines liquid chromatography (LC) with ion trap‐mass spectrometry (IT‐MS) detection. The UA and OA standard solution were directly infused into IT‐MS for collecting MSⁿ spectra. The major fragment ions of UA and OA were confirmed by MSⁿ at m/z 455, 407, 391, 377 and 363 in negative ion mode, and m/z 457, 439, 411 and 393 in positive mode, respectively. The possible main cleavage pathway of fragment ions was studied. UA and OA provided good signals corresponding to the deprotonated molecular ion [M − H]⁻. The method is reliable and reproducible, and the detection limit is 5 ng/mL. The method was validated in the concentration range of 0.04–40 μg/mL; intra‐ and inter‐day precisions ranged from 0.78 to 2.15%, and the accuracy was 96.5–108.2% for UA and OA. The mean recovery of UA and OA was 97.1–106.2% with RSD less than 1.86%. An LC‐IT‐MS method was successfully applied to determine the UA and OA in nine Chinese herbs.

Identification and quantification of atractylenolide I and atractylenolide III in Rhizoma Atractylodes Macrocephala by liquid chromatography–ion trap mass spectrometry

Rhizoma Atractylodes Macrocephala (RAM) is an important traditional Chinese medicinal herb that is used for treatment of dyspepsia and anorexia. The active ingredients, atractylenolide I (AO‐I) and atractylenolide III (AO‐III), were identified by direct‐injection ion trap‐mass spectrometry (IT‐MS) for collecting MSⁿ spectra. The major fragment ions of AO‐I and AO‐III were confirmed by MSⁿ both in negative ion mode and in positive ion mode. The possible main cleavage pathway of fragment ions was studied. The determinations of AO‐I and AO‐III were accomplished by liquid chromatography (LC) with UV and MS. The analytes provided good signals corresponding to the protonated molecular ions [M + H]⁺ and product ions. The precursor ions and product ions for quantification of AO‐III and AO‐I were m/z 249 → 231 and m/z 233 → 215, respectively, using selected ion monitoring by LC‐IT‐MS. Two methods were evaluated for a number of validation characteristics (repeatability, limit of detection, calibration range, and recovery). MS provides a high selectivity and sensitivity for determination of AO‐III and AO‐I in positive mode. After optimization of the methods, separation, identification and quantification of the two components in RAM were comprehensively tested by HPLC with UV and MS.

The coupling effects of hexapole and octopole fields in quadrupole ion traps: a theoretical study

A theoretical method, the harmonic balance method, was introduced to study the coupling effects of hexapole and octopole fields on ion motion in a quadrupole ion trap. Ion motion characteristics, such as ion motion center displacement, ion secular frequency shift, nonlinear resonance curve and buffer gas damping effects, have been studied with the presence of both hexapole and octopole fields. It is found that hexapole fields have bigger impacts on ion motion center displacement, while octopole fields dominate ion secular frequency shift. Furthermore, the nonlinear features originated from hexapole and octopole fields could enhance or cancel each other, which provide us more space in a practical ion trap design process. As an example, an ion trap with improved performance was designed using a specific combination of hexapole and octopole fields. In this ion trap, a hexapole field was used to achieve efficient ion directional ejection, while an octopole field was added to correct the chemical mass shift and resolution degradation introduced by the hexapole field.

The potential of mass spectrometry to study iron-containing proteins used in clinical diagnosis

Many proteins contain iron as metal ion either within their own structures or bound to their active sites. These iron-containing proteins are involved in numerous biological processes and some of them serve as biomarkers of clinical pathologies, not only related to iron homeostasis but also to other physiological disorders. Thus, a variety of analytical strategies have been developed over the last years in order to conduct studies on Fe-containing proteins. Among them, mass spectrometric (MS) methods still remain as preferred tools since they provide the capabilities of structure elucidation together with quantitative possibilities. Therefore, in this work we have tried to summarize the most recent applications of elemental and molecular mass spectrometric-based methods for the characterization (mostly qualitative but quantitative in some cases) of the high abundant Fe-containing proteins used for clinical diagnosis.
