Cnidilin is one of the major bioactive constituents of Radix Angelicae dahuricae. The present study was designed to characterize and interpret the structures of metabolites in rats after oral administration of cnidilin at a dose of 48mg/kg body weight. Metabolite identification was accomplished using a predictive multiple reaction monitoring-information-dependent acquisition-enhanced product ion (pMRM-IDA-EPI) scan and precursor ion scan-information-dependent acquisition-enhanced product ion (PREC-IDA-EPI) scan in positive ion mode. Comparing the changes in protonated molecular masses, MS/MS spectra and retention times with the parent drug, 18 metabolites were identified. The result shows that the metabolic pathways contain deisopentenyl, combination with glucose, hydroxylation, oxidation, demethylation and addition reaction. The study identified 18 metabolites, analyzed and summarized the fragmentation regularities of mass spectra of 8-methoxy-5-hydroxy psoralen. The study provides a new pathway to discovery new compounds, new fragmentation regularities and the mode of metabolites.

The demand for plant-based protein sources in the food industry has significantly increased in recent years, leading to the introduction of legume-based products as meat substitutes. However, concerns regarding food quality have emerged, particularly related to the presence of mycotoxins. This study addresses the need for the sensitive detection of phomopsins (PHOs), a class of peptide-based toxins.

Patulin, a toxic mycotoxin, can contaminate apple-derived products. The FDA has established an action level of 50 ppb (ng/g) for patulin in apple juice and apple juice products. To effectively monitor this mycotoxin, there is a need for adequate analytical methods that can reliably and efficiently determine patulin levels.

Objective: To clear the amounts of the principal active/toxic components in herbs containing aristolochic acids (HCAAs), which are still used as medicine and/or seasoning in many ethnic minority areas of China.
Methods: In this study, six major active and toxic components in HCAAs were extracted with ultrasonic extraction. With 6--methyl guanosine as internal standard, the target compounds were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS) with multiple reaction monitoring-information dependent acquisition-enhanced production ion scanning mode (MRM-IDA-EPI) combined with dynamic background subtraction (DBS) function.

Liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole linear ion trap tandem mass spectrometry (LC-QLIT-MS/MS) technology operated in electrospray ionization (ESI) was developed for tracing anesthetic (AETs) and sedatives (SDTs) in fish. Sampling procedure was achieved by using acetonitrile extraction followed by dispersive solid phase extraction (DSPE) clean-up. Under the optimized laboratory conditions, reliable qualitative confirmation was obtained through the multiple reaction monitoring-information dependent acquisition-enhanced product ion (MRM-IDA-EPI) mode.

Multiple reaction monitoring-information dependent acquisition-enhanced product ion (MRM-IDA-EPI) scan mode was performed to eliminate false positive results, and the whole detection procedure was characterized by less time consuming and simple sample preparation. 9 NAs were separated through a T3 column with the gradient elution of acetonitrile and water, and detected by UPLC-QTRAP-MS with an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) source in the positive mode.
