摘要: 基于超高效液相色譜-三重四级杆串联质谱(UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS)联用技术对茶叶中黄酮醇糖苷(FGs)种类及含量进行测定并对提取方式和检测条件进行优化。用75%(体积分数)甲醇水溶液提取目标化合物,再用Waters Acquity HSS T3色谱柱(粒径为1.8 μm,长度×内径为100.0 mm×2.1 mm)分离目标化合物,以含有0.1%(体积分数)甲酸的乙腈溶液为流动相进行梯度洗脱,采用电喷雾正离子源(ESI+)与质谱多反应监测(MRM)方法对成品茶中15种FGs进行定量测定。结果表明,在0.1~20.0 μg/ml的质量浓度范围内FGs的基质标准曲线的线性关系良好,其检测限(LOD)为0.08~0.23 μg/L,定量限(LOQ)为0.25~0.76 μg/L,相对标准偏差(RSD)为1.30%~2.80%,出峰时间为3.60~7.40 min。与现有最优检测技术相比,超高效液相色谱-三重四级杆串联质谱法具有分析速度快、灵敏度高、稳定性好等特点,可为提高茶叶品质成分的检测效率提供参考。

Abstract: The extraction methods and detection conditions of flavonol glycosides (FGs) in teas were optimized based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography combined with triple four-bar tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS) technology, and the varieties and contents were determined. The target compounds were extracted with 75% (volume fraction) methanol aqueous solution, separated on Waters Acquity HSS T3 column (particle size was 1.8 μm, length × inner diameter was 100.0 mm × 2.1 mm), and gradient elution was carried out using acetonitrile solution containing 0.1% (volume fraction) formic acid as moving phase. Positive electrospray ionization (ESI+) and mass spectrometry multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) methods were used to quantitatively determine 15 flavonol glycosides in made teas. The results indicated that the matrix standard curve of FGs showed a good linearity in the concentration range of 0.1-20.0 μg/ml, the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.08-0.23 μg/L, the limit of quantity (LOQ) was 0.25-0.76 μg/L, the relative standard deviation (RSD) was 1.30%-2.80%, and the peak out time was 3.60-7.40 min. Compared with the existing optimal detection technology, UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS method has fast analysis speed, high sensitivity and good stability, which can provide reference for improving the detection efficiency of tea quality components.

黄酮醇糖苷(Flavonols glycosides,FGs)是茶叶中除儿茶素外较为重要的多酚类物质之一,大都由黄酮醇苷元(杨梅素、槲皮素、山柰酚等)或黄酮苷元(芹菜素等)与糖分子(葡萄糖、半乳糖、芸香糖等)结合形成O-糖苷[1-2]。已有研究发现,FGs不仅对茶叶中的苦涩味及茶汤的光泽度、亮度具有重要作用[3-6],而且具有类黄酮物质的生理学共性,在生物体中发挥着抗氧化、清除活性氧自由基及抵御紫外线、抗菌抑菌等作用[7-8]。
国内外有很多FGs检测方法的报道,目前常用的检测方法主要包括紫外分光光度法(UV spectrophotometer)、高效液相色谱法(HPLC)、液相色谱-质谱检测法(LC-MS)、超高效液相色谱法(UPLC)、毛细管电泳法(CE)及电化学检测法(ED)等[9]。……
