Simultaneous quantification of bioactive components in Chinese herbal spirits by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QQQ-MS/MS).

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Chinese medicinal wine made from herbal medicines became prevalent among Chinese people. The Chinese herbal spirit is composed of several herbal extracts, and has the certain health functions, such as anti-fatigue and immune regulation. The quality evaluation of Chinese herbal spirit is greatly challenged by the enormous and complex components with great structural diversity and wide range of concentration distribution.

Methods

An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QQQ-MS/MS) with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) method was developed to simultaneously determine forty-three bioactive components in the Chinese herbal spirits produced by year 2014 and 2018.
