Fund Project:

Rapid analysis chemical composition of plant samples was achieved using internal extractive electrospray ionization mass spectrometry(iEESI-MS) without any sample pretreatment. In this study, fresh asparagus tubers together with two kinds of dry asparagus tubers were treated as representative samples for the iEESI-MS analysis. Choosing methanol as an iEESI extractant, various chemical composition in asparagus tissue samples was profiled in mass scan range of m/z 50~1000 under the positive ion detection mode, and through collision-induced dissociation(CID) experiments, nutrient and medicinal components including sugars, amino acids, alkaloids, and rutin were identified, which play an significant role in development of pharmaceutical drugs, natural product research and understanding of primary and secondary metabolites. Our experimental results demonstrate that iEESI-MS makes rapid recognition of chemical composition differences in different asparagus. Such information renders the nutritious and medicinal assessment of plant natural products possible. The merits of iEESI-MS include no sample pretreatment, high-throughput(less than 1 min per sample), low sample consumption, simplicity, as well as good specificity, showing potential applications in phytochemicals analysis.
