Schisandra chinensis is a medicinal and edible plant that contains various bioactive compounds. Among these, lignans are the major functional compounds. Nevertheless, detailed information about lignans in Schisandra chinensis oil remains scarce. A powerful UPLC-Q/TOF-MS method was established for the rapid identification of the lignan constituents of Schisandra chinensis oils. The results showed that 21 lignans have been unambiguously identified, and four lignans have been tentatively identified in the Schisandra chinensis oils. In addition, semi-quantitative analysis indicated that the total lignan content in the Schisandra chinensis oils was distributed from 67.73 ± 0.06 to 87.61 ± 1.83 mg/g. Schisandrin and schisandrin B were the most abundant lignans in the Schisandra chinensis oils, their content ranging from 15.85 ± 0.09 to 20.57 ± 0.38 mg/g. Additionally, this study provided a systematic characterization of lignans in Schisandra chinensis oil and indicated that the oil might be used as lignan-related functional foods.

Mangiferin (MG) is an active component in natural medicines, and various studies have been reported on pharmacological effects, but the low solubility and bioavailability of MG limit its wide application. The aim of the present study was to investigate the pharmacokinetic profiles of mangiferin (MG) and mangiferin monosodium salt (MG-Na) in rat plasma by UPLC-MS/MS, which were then compared between the two groups. An appropriate high sensitivity and selectivity ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was applied to the comparison of plasma pharmacokinetics in MG and MG-Na using carbamazepine as internal standard (IS). These results showed that there were statistically significant differences in the pharmacokinetic parameters between MG and MG-Na after a single oral administration at 100 mg/kg. When compared with pharmacokinetic parameters of MG, the AUC(0-t), AUC(0–∞), Cmax,K10, and Ka of MG-Na were increased by 5.6-, 5.7-, 20.8-, 8-, and 83.6-fold, while the Tmax and CL/F were decreased by 4- and 5.7-fold (), respectively. t1/2 value showed an increasing trend, but was statistically significant between the two groups. Moreover, the AUC value in the MG-Na group was significantly increased and the relative bioavailability was calculated to be 570% when compared with that of the MG group. These results suggested that the salification reaction of MG can effectively enhance gastrointestinal absorption and relative bioavailability by improving solubility and membrane permeability.

Piceatannol is a stilbenoid, which has shown bioactivities in various cell culture models. However, its stability in cell culture medium is not clear. Here, UPLC-MS/MS was applied in situ to analyze the degradation products of piceatannol in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) and cell culture to investigate the compound's stability in DMEM. During the incubation with cell culture medium (at 4 and 37 °C), several piceatannol derivatives, such as an oxidation product (m/z 243.06), a reduction product (m/z 247.09), dimers (m/z 485.12 and 487.14) and trimers (m/z 727.18) were detected, which demonstrated the instability of piceatannol in cell culture conditions. To confirm if the new products during the incubation were generated due to the instability of piceatannol, ascorbic acid was added. The presence of ascorbic acid could significantly slow the degradation rate of piceatannol and the generation of piceatannol derivatives, which proved that the new products were generated by the degradation of piceatannol and indicated that the instability of piceatannol might be related to its antioxidant activity.

Hops , extensively cultivated in China for their food and medicinal applications, currently lack well-defined chemical markers to evaluate variations in their quality. The study aimed to explore variations in the quality of Chinese hops by the chemical characteristics of hops, employing UPLC-Q-TOF/MS, integrated with chemical fingerprinting and chemometrics. The results indicated that Chinese hops are abundant in polyphenols and bitter acids. The integration of UPLC-Q-TOF/MS, Chemical fingerprinting, and chemometrics revealed to be an accurate and effective approach for assessing the quality of Chinese hops. In this study, ten important chemical markers were found to be useful in differentiating various hop varieties. Moreover, the support vector machine showed a prediction accuracy of 92.3077% in identifying Chinese hop varieties. The strategy of the study lays the groundwork for classifying Chinese hop varieties and serves as a prerequisite for future quality control studies, particularly focusing on chemical compositions.

Metal organic framework MIL-101(Cr) was successfully synthesized as a selective adsorbent by a facile self-assembly technique and combined with UPLC-MS/MS for enrichment and determination of neonicotinoids in fruit juices and tea beverages. Therein, MIL-101(Cr) was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and N 2 adsorption–desorption isotherms. Box-Behnken design was applied to optimize the significant variables including the sorbent amount, pH of the matrix, eluant volume, extraction time and desorption time. The optimized conditions were sorbent amount of 20 mg, eluent volume of 1 mL, extraction time of 5 min and desorption time of 4 min. Under the optimized conditions, excellent sensitivity was achieved with the limit of detection of 0.0019–0.02 μg/L and limit of quantification of 0.0063–0.067 μg/L. Good linearity (R 2 ≥ 0.9988) was obtained within the range of 1–1000 μg/L, and the recovery was 71.04%-101.64% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 1.25%-8.82% in spiked samples. The inter- and intra-day RSDs were both<8.54%. The adsorption isotherms investigated for acetamiprid, thiacloprid, and imidacloprid pesticides better fitted with the Freundich adsorption isotherm with bimolecular adsorption capacity of 71.43, 68.49, and 50.38 mg/g, respectively. These results indicate that the nanocomposite is feasible for adsorption of the target analytes at trace amounts from fruit juices and tea beverages.

Ilicis Rotundae Cortex (IRC) consists of the bark of Ilex rotunda Thunb, and its chemical constituents mainly include flavonoid glycosides, phenols, and triterpenoid saponins. In this study, a preliminary analysis was performed to identify and obtain the chemical components from IRC to better control the quality of the medicinal materials and provide a chemical basis for the study of the efficacy of the active components. Simple and efficient sample pretreatment and ultrasonic-assisted extraction methods were used to analyze the mass spectrum fragments and fracture modes in the anion mode by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. Using a two-step strategy, the neutral loss, diagnostic ions, and characteristic fragments were studied to screen diverse skeletons and substitutions, and the possible compounds were identified by comparison with databases. The representative compounds were compared with the standard, and the mass spectrogram was found to match perfectly. Thus, our findings reveal that this method is feasible and reliable and can be used to analyze the chemical components of IRC. We identified 105 compounds, including 22 triterpenoid saponins, 15 chlorogenic acids, 33 phenylpropanoids and phenylpropanosides, 3 iridoids, 1 flavonoid, 10 lignans, 12 glycosides, and 9 other compounds. This method lays the foundation for further elucidating the pharmacodynamics of IRC and provides a practical method for the identification of IRC.

Blood stasis syndrome (BSS) is one of the most common Chinese medicine patterns in coronary heart disease. Our previous work proved that Xueshuan Xinmaining Tablet (XXT) could treat blood stasis through regulating the expression of F13a1, Car1 and Tbxa2r. In the current study, the effect and mechanism of XXT on BSS was comprehensively and holistically investigated based on a metabolomics approach. Urine and plasma samples of 10 BBS rats treated with XXT (XT), 9 BSS model rats (BM) and 11 normal control (NC) rats were collected and then determined by UPLC-Q/TOP-MS. Multivariate analyses were applied to distinguish differentiate urinary and plasma metabolite patterns between three groups. Results showed that a clear separation of three groups was achieved. XT group was located between BM group and NC group, and showing a tendency of recovering to NC group, which was consistent with the results of hemorheological studies. Some significantly changed metabolites like cortexolone, 3α,21-dihydroxy-5β-pregnane-11,20-dione and 19S-hete and leukotriene A4, chiefly involved in steroid hormone biosynthesis, arachidonic acid metabolism and lipid metabolism, were found and identified to explain the mechanism. These potential markers and their corresponding pathways will help explain the mechanism of BSS and XXT treatment. This work also proves that metabolomics is effective in traditional Chinese medicinal research.Keywords:blood stasis syndrome;Xueshuan Xinmaining tablet;UPLC-Q/TOF-MS;rats;metabolomics

This study combined the structural characteristics of amanita peptide toxins to prepare a Fe 3 O 4 /P4VPBA/PPy/GO composite material as a magnetic solid-phase extraction adsorbent. The experimental results indicated that this adsorbent showed excellent selectivity for the extraction of amatoxins and phallotoxins from mushroom samples. Compared with traditional dispersive solid-phase extraction, this adsorbent enables rapid separation in the enrichment and elution recovery stages through the application of a magnetic field . Simultaneously, the study optimized the conditions for ultraperformance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS), ensuring both separation efficiency and accuracy while reducing the analysis time. The researchers established the MSPE–UPLC–MS/MS method for the determination of amanita peptide toxins in wild mushrooms. This method not only simplified and expedited the sample pretreatment process but also achieved qualitative and quantitative analyses in a short period, thus demonstrating high detection sensitivity and outstanding recovery rates. Furthermore, the developed method was successfully applied to analyze toxic mushrooms discovered in Nanjing, China. The potential for extensive utilization of this method is highlighted in the field of food analysis and detection.

Introduction: The root of Millettia speciosa Champ. (Leguminosae) is one of the wellknown traditional Chinese medicines abundant in phenolic compounds and plays important roles in the treatment of pain or numbness of the joints, blood deficiency sallow, chronic bronchitis and chronic
hepatitis. Objective: An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) based chemical profiling approach was established for the separation and characterization of isoflavonoids in the roots of Millettia speciosa
Champ. Methods: The roots of Millettia speciosa Champ. were prepared by ethanol extraction followed by further extraction with chloroform. The extracts were analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS in positive and negative electrospray ion modes at different Collision Energy (CE) values. Results:
A total of 48 components were simultaneously detected, of which 38 components, including 21 isoflavones, 4 phenolic acids, 4 isoflavanones, 2 phenolic aldehydes, 2 flavanones, 1 aliphatic acid, 1 chalcone, 1 flavonol, 1 isoflavane and 1 pterocarpan were unambiguously identified or tentatively
assigned based on the retention time, UV spectra, characteristic molecular ions, MS/MS fragmentation data and reference standards. The isomers of isoflavonoids were distinguished using accurate mass, the diagnostic fragmentations of C-ring and UV spectra. The major diagnostic fragment ions
of isoflavonoids were observed and the corresponding fragmentation pathways were proposed. Conclusion: This investigation provides important analysis data for further quality control, pharmacological and toxicological research on Millettia speciosa Champ.

Ethanamizuril (EZL) is a novel anti-coccidial triazine synthesized by the Shanghai Veterinary Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. As a novel coccidiostat, it is essential to study its residue in food animal tissues. In this study, a reliable UPLC method for the determination of ethanamizuril (EZL) and one of its metabolites (M3) in chicken muscle, skin and fat, liver, and kidney samples was developed. Analytes were extracted using acetonitrile and 10% sodium carbonate solution, defatted by n -hexane, and further purified by using an Oasis MCX cartridge. The calibration curves for both test compounds were linear in all tissue matrices we tested: muscle, skin and fat, liver and kidney. The mean relative recoveries of EZL and M3 were from 87.3% to 103.2% between all tissue samples. The inter-day and intra-day relative standard deviations were within 15% and 20%, respectively. This method is accurate, reproducible and is ready to be field-tested.

Ethoxysanguinarine (ETSG), a benzophenanthridine alkaloid, exhibits diverse biological activities, including antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-tumor effects. Despite these properties, limited research exists on ETSG in vivo pharmacokinetics due to its poor solubility and low bioavailability. In this study, we developed a rapid and specific UPLC-MS/MS method for ETSG bioanalysis. Sample preparation involved one-step protein precipitation using methanol and phellodendrine as an internal standard (IS). The Waters HSS T3 column (2.1 * 50 mm, 1.8 μM) employed a gradient elution with mobile phases A (2 mmol/L ammonium formate aqueous solution-formic acid [99.8:0.2, v/v]) and B (methanol-formic acid [99.8:0.2, v/v]). Mass analysis via Waters Q-mass spectrometer utilized positive scan mode and multiple reaction monitoring. ETSG and IS were detected at m/z 332.0 → 274.0 and 342.0 → 177.0, respectively, within 7.0 min. The method demonstrated excellent precision, accuracy, recovery, and stability, with a linear calibration curve (1.1–560 ng/mL) and strong correlation coefficient (0.9984). Successful pharmacokinetic evaluation in Sprague–Dawley rats included intravenous ETSG administration and intragastric ETSG nanoemulsion/suspension. This method enables steroidal saponin analysis from ETSG in biological samples.
