Purpose: To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of multi-components of Rhizoma coptidis steamed with rice wine (RCRW), and to provide a reference for assessing its standard of quality. Method: Chromatographic separation was performed on a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system to determine the characteristic fingerprint of RCRW. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (A) and 0.1 % trifluoroacetic acid (B), with gradients of B as follows: 15 - 20 % from 0 – 30 min; 20 - 25 % from 30 - 50 min; 25 - 35 % for 50 - 60 min, and 35 % for 60 - 70 min. Results: In the multiple reaction monitoring mode, eight components of RCRW were isolated by HPLCphoto-diode array (PDA) method. A fingerprint of the RCRW was established and 8 peaks were calibrated. The method was further validated in terms of linearity (R2 > 0.9993), precision (relative standard deviation, RSD < 1.51 %); repeatability (RSD < 2.98 %) and stability (RSD < 1.93 %). Mean recovery rate ranged from 96.2 to 103.8 %, while RSD values ranged from 0.92 to 2.88 %. Conclusion: These results show that HPLC-PDA method is accurate and feasible, and that they provide a reference for further comprehensive and effective quality control of RCRW.

Abstract An analytical multiresidue method using HPLC/MS/MS with a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer in the multiple reaction monitoring mode for the simultaneous determination of 54 pesticides in soil has been developed. The procedure involved initial single-phase extraction of soil sample with acetonitrile by sonication, followed by liquidliquid partitioning after addition of NaCl. The average recovery by the HPLC/MS/MS method obtained for these compounds varied from 63.2 to 113.8, with an RSD between 1.9 and 7.1. The method gave good linearity over the assay range of 10500 g/L (except famoxadone, 501000 g/L); the LOD and LOQ for the pesticides varied from 0.02 to 13.2 and from 0.1 to 43.9 g/kg, respectively. The proposed method was used to determine pesticide levels in soil samples from two experimental vineyards and two tomato greenhouses.

Background: Xanthium sibiricum is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that has been commonly used to treat rhinitis and related nasal diseases. The aim of this study was to develop a comprehensive analytical method based on high-performance liquid chromatographyelectrospray ionization coupled with triple quadrupole-linear ion trap mass spectrometry (LC-ESIQTRAP- MS/MS) for the simultaneous determination of phenolic acids, anthraquinones, and flavonoids in the aerial part and fruit of Xanthium sibiricum. Methods: The separation was completed on Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5μm) using methanol and 0.2% (v/v) aqueous formic acid as the mobile phase. The target components were analyzed in negative ion mode with accurate and sensitive multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Results: The correlation coefficients of all the calibration curves were higher than 0.9994. Relative standard deviations of intra- and inter-day precisions of the eighteen components were all lower than 2.87% and the recoveries were in the range from 97.73% to 101.82%. The validated method was successfully applied to possess forty Xanthium sibiricum samples (Xanthii Herba, Xanthii Fructus, and processed Xanthii Fructus) collected from different places in P. R. China. Furthermore, principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to evaluate and classify the samples according to the contents of the eighteen bioactive components. Conclusion: All the results demonstrated that the developed method was useful and could be applied for the overall assessment of the quality of Xanthii Herba and Xanthii Fructus.

This study established a validated method for the quantitative and qualitative determination of eight signature compounds in Eccoilopus formosanus. We used multiple-reaction monitoring scanning for quantification, and switched the electrospray ion source polarity between positive and negative modes in a single chromatographic run. The precursor-to-product ion transitions were m/z 355/163, m/z 181/163, m/z 265/122, m/z 269/117, m/z 170/152, m/z 377.2/180.7, m/z 169/124.8 and m/z 193/134 for chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, thiamine, apigenin, pyridoxamin, riboflavin, gallic acid and ferulic acid, respectively. The developed method was also validated for accuracy, precision and limit of quantification. In this method, eight compounds were quantified with correlation coefficients of greater than 0.995. A high recovery (81.5–94.1%) and good reproducibility was obtained for five phenolics and three vitamins with the relative standard deviation, ranging from 1.2 to 3.5%. This method may be applied to the determination of both phenolics and water-soluble vitamins in cereal grain. The results may suggest that the extract of E. formosanus could be a good source of bioactive phytochemicals.

AbstractWe developed a significantly improved ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for determination of 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde (NF) as a surrogate using a novel internal standard for the detection of nitrofurazone. We used 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine derivatization and furfural as the internal standard. Derivatization was easily performed in HCl using ultrasonic manipulation for 5 min followed by liquid extraction using ethyl acetate. The samples were concentrated and purified using reverse phase and alumina cartridges in tandem. The derivatives were separated using a linear gradient elution on a C18 column with methanol and water as the mobile phase in negative ionization mode and multiple reaction monitoring. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration curves were linear from 0.2 to 20 μg/L with correlation coefficients >0.999. Mean recoveries were 80.8 to 104.4% with the intra- and inter-day relative standard deviations <15% at spiking levels of 0.1 to 10 μg/kg. The limits of detection and quantification were 0.05 and 0.1 μg/kg, respectively. This method is a robust tool for the identification and quantitative determination of NF in shrimp samples.
