The anti-oxidative phenolic compounds in plant extracts possess multiple pharmacological functions. However, the phenolic characterization and in vitro bio-activities in various parts of raspberry (Rubus idaeusL.) have not been investigated systematically. In the present study, the phenolic profiles of leaves (LE), fruit pulp (FPE), and seed extracts (SE) in raspberry were analyzed by HR-HPLC-ESI-qTOF-MS/MS method, and their antioxidant activities and digestive enzymes inhibitory abilities were also investigated. The molecular docking analysis was used to delineate their inhibition mechanisms toward type II diabetes related digestive enzymes. Regardless of LE, FPE, or SE, 50% methanol was the best solvent for extracting high contents of phenolic compounds, followed by 50% ethanol and 100% methanol. The LE of raspberry displayed the highest total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC). A total of nineteen phenolic compounds were identified. The quantitative results showed that gallic acid, ellagic acid, and procyanidin C3 were the major constituents in the three extracts. The various parts extracts of raspberry all exhibited the strong antioxidant activities, especially for LE. Moreover, the powerful inhibitory effects of the three extracts against digestive enzymes (α-glucosidase andα-amylase) were observed. The major phenolic compounds of the three extracts also showed good inhibitory activities of digestive enzyme in a dose-dependent manner. The underlying inhibitory mechanisms of the main phenolic compounds against digestive enzymes were clarified by molecular docking analysis. The present study demonstrated that the various parts of raspberry had strong antioxidant activities and inhibitory effects on digestive enzymes, and can potentially prevent oxidative damage or diabetes-related problems.Keywords:Rubus idaeusL.;phenolic compounds;HPLC-ESI-HR-qTOF-MS/MS;antioxidant activities;digestive enzymes inhibitors;molecular docking analysis

Driven by the significant need for characterization of the chemical speciation of arsenic in food, this work developed a method for rapid determination of four common arsenic species, namely, arsenite, arsenate, monomethyl arsenic acid, and dimethyl arsenic acid, in vegetables using microwave-assisted extraction, followed by detection with high-performance liquid chromatography hyphenated to inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Initial screening results showed that microwave-assisted extraction using 1% HNO 3 exhibited the highest overall efficiencies for all arsenic species without causing significant degradation of the organic ones. With the aid of response surface methodology, the optimum conditions established for extraction of arsenic species from vegetables were: 500 mg of freeze-dried vegetable sample, extracted by closed vessel microwave-assisted extraction using 10 mL of 2% v/v HNO 3 at 90°C for 17 min. Application of the method in the analysis of 24 market vegetable samples indicates that the extraction efficiencies for total arsenic species were in the range of 91.4–106%. Arsenite and arsenate were found to be the predominant arsenic species in the vegetables, which suggests that vegetable consumption could be an important route of inorganic arsenic exposure for the population with a heavy vegetable diet in arsenic polluted regions.

A novel extraction technique combining dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) with magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) is presented for pre-concentration of four primary aromatic amines (PAAs) released from azo dyes in paper samples prior to high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). n-Octanol was used as the extractant and hydrophobic oleic acid modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@OA NPs) as an efficient adsorbent was applied to retrieve the PAAs-containing n-octanol in the DLLME step. Because of the rapid mass transfer associated with the DLLME and MSPE steps, fast extraction could be achieved. The main parameters affecting the efficiency of MSPE-DLLME procedure of PAAs were investigated and optimized. Under optimum conditions, the recoveries ranged from 79.6 to 88.5% and the limits of detection (LODs) were in the range of 0.21-1.16 ng mL-1 (S / N = 3). The intra-day precision (relative standard deviation (RSD)) was below 7.8% and inter-day RSD was less than 11%.

Automated on-line SPE/multi-stage column-switching and benzoic acid-based quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker/respective optimal detection wavelengths-high performance liquid chromatography (QAMS/RODWs-HPLC) as a novel analysis model was reported in the study; it obtained simple, effective, very low-cost, sensitive and reliable characteristics. This method has been set up for direct analysis of syringic acid, benzoic acid, and salicylic acid in rat plasma, and its application to the pharmacokinetic study of syringic acid and salicylic acid in rats. The chromatographic separation was performed on two C18 columns with the elution of methanol and 0.5 % formic acid aqueous solution in two pump systems, detection wavelengths of 230, 236, and 275 nm, 500-μL injection volume. Their linear ranges were between 0.008 and 166.7 μg mL −1 with correlation coefficient of 0.9977–0.9997. Benzoic acid-based QAMS/RODWs-HPLC was also compared with other two quantitative analysis methods (external standard method of RODWs-HPLC, internal standard method of RODWs-HPLC) based on pharmacokinetic data; the similarities of three analytical methods in accordance with separately obtained concentrations of syringic acid and salicylic acid in rats were 0.9997–0.9999 by the cosine value method of vectorial angle. The pharmacokinetics of syringic acid and salicylic acid were simultaneously studied in SD rats following 30 mg kg −1 intragastric administration, and their pharmacokinetic parameters were also estimated. This method was successfully applied to determination of syringic acid and salicylic acid in rat plasma samples and their oral pharmacokinetics in rats.

(6R)- and (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolic acid were resolved by reversed-phase HPLC on a C-18 column with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) in the mobile phase. As the concentration of HP-β-CD increased from 0 to 45 mM, resolution increased and retention times decreased dramatically. The influence of different mobile phase pH, column temperature, and some other factors were evaluated, and we obtained the optimal HPLC separation conditions.

Non-destructive proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR) spectroscopy and highly sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (U-HPLC/Q-TOF-MS) coupled to data processing methods were applied to analyze the metabolic profiling changes of glycerophospholipids (GPLs) in RAW264.7 cells from inflammation to prognosis. Analysis of 1 H NMR was shown that the models were grouped successfully, illustrating that all of them had significant differences. Based on the highly simple, accurate, non-targeted and non-destructively advantages of 1 H NMR, it could be used as a new screening tool of anti-inflammatory drugs in the metabolic profiling of GPLs. 58 GPLs were identified by U-HPLC/Q-TOF-MS, and 19 components were firstly identified in this study compared with our previous results. In addition, ten potential biomarkers were proved, of which phosphatidylcholine (PC) (16:0/18:1) and (18:0/18:1) changed consistently in three drug-induced groups and might be the important biomarkers. Compared with 1 H NMR, U-HPLC/Q-TOF-MS showed higher sensitivity and specificity and was more suitable for the determination of biomarkers apart from the deficiency of time-consuming sample preparation steps and unambiguous metabolite identification. Therefore, it is feasible to analyze the changes of GPLs during inflammation by combining 1 H NMR spectroscopy with U-HPLC/Q-TOF-MS. The metabolic profiling of GPLs provides valuable evidence for inflammation diagnosis and prognosis, and might unravel the mechanisms involved in inflammation progression.

In this study, a magnetic microsphere-confined graphene (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -G) was prepared as a novel adsorbent for the preconcentration of some phthalate esters in environmental water and soybean milk samples prior to high performance liquid chromatography analysis. The properties and morphology of the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -G were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. This novel graphene-based magnetic nanocomposite showed great adsorptive ability toward the analytes. The method, which takes the advantages of both the high adsorption capacity of G and easy phase separation of the magnetic adsorbent from the sample solution, could avoid the time-consuming experimental procedures related to the traditional solid phase extraction . Various experimental parameters that could affect the extraction efficiencies, such as the amount of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -G, the extraction time, the pH of sample solution and the desorption conditions, were investigated. Under the optimum conditions, the limits of detection ( S / N =3) of the method for the compounds were between 0.07 and 0.10 ng mL −1 in water samples, and between 0.15 and 0.30 ng mL −1 in soybean milk samples. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) varied from 2.7% to 6.1% ( n =5). The recoveries of the method were in the range between 87.2% and 109.0% for environmental water and soybean milk samples. The method is suitable to determine the five phthalate esters (diallyl phthalate, di- n -propyl-phthalate, benzyl butyl phthalate, dicyclohexyl-phthalate and diethyl-hexyl-phthalate) in environmental water and soybean milk samples.

Bilirubin, an important endogenous substances and liver function index in humans, is primarily eliminated via UGT1A1-catalyzed glucuronidation. Instability of bilirubin and its glucuronides brings substantial technical challenges to conduct in vitro bilirubin glucuronidation assay. In the present study, we developed a simple and robust HPLC method for simultaneous determination of unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) and its multiple glucuronides, i.e. bilirubin monoglucuronides (BMGs, including BMG1 and BMG2 isomers) and diglucuronide (BDG) in rat liver microsomes (RLM), human liver microsomes (HLM) and recombinant human UGT1A1 enzyme (UGT1A1) incubation systems, and applied it to study in vitro bilirubin glucuronidation. UCB, BMG1, BMG2, BDG and their isomers in the incubation mixtures were successfully separated using a C18 column with UV detection at 450 nm and mobile phase consisted of 0.1% formic acid in water and acetonitrile by a linear gradient elution program. Assay linearities of bilirubin were confirmed in the range 0.01–2 μM. Precision of UCB, BMG1, BMG2 and BDG ( n = 5) at low, medium and high concentration was within the range of RSD 0.4–3.7%, accuracy expressed in the mean assay recoveries of them ( n = 5) ranged from 92.8 ± 1.5% to 104.3 ± 2.2% for intra- and inter-day assays and the mean extraction recoveries of them ( n = 5) were above 91.5 ± 1.0%. Stability of bilirubin and its glucuronides was satisfactory at 37 °C in the incubation solutions during the reaction (30 min), 25 °C for 24 h and −70 °C for 7 d in the processed incubation samples with methanol. Furthermore, we established stable, reliable in vitro incubation systems and optimized the incubation conditions to characterize the kinetics of bilirubin glucuronidation by RLM, HLM and UGT1A1, respectively. The kinetic parameters of formation of total bilirubin glucuronides (TBG, the sum of BMG1, BMG2 and BDG) were as follows: K m of 0.45 ± 0.016, 0.40 ± 0.022, 0.44 ± 0.018 μM, V max of 2.65 ± 0.057, 1.86 ± 0.029, 2.95 ± 0.036 nmol/mg/min, CL int of 5.92 ± 0.22, 4.70 ± 0.079, 6.72 ± 0.27 mL/mg/min by RLM, HLM and UGT1A1, respectively. Bilirubin glucuronidation obeyed the Hill equation by RLM and the Michaelis–Menten equation by HLM and UGT1A1 in the range of substrate concentration selected, respectively. In addition, the relative proportions between BDG and BMGs were in connection with enzyme sources (e.g. RLM, HLM and UGT1A1) and bilirubin concentration.

Nigella glandulifera Freyn et Sint seeds (NG) as well as Nigella sativa L. seeds (NS) have been employed as folk remedies for centuries. However, little work has been done on their quality control. In order to assess the quality and guarantee therapeutic effects, the chemical constituents of the two herbs were extensively characterized by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS), and a simple, practical, and reliable HPLC fingerprinting method was established and applied to determination of 20 batches of samples. With their chromatographic fingerprints, the two species were successfully differentiated by pattern recognition methods, namely, principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). Results from this study show that the proposed analytical methods can be applied to the quality control of the seeds and have high potential to ensure their safety and efficacy.

Background Trace levels of organic and inorganic lead and mercury species in the environment, including divalent lead (Pb 2+ ), trimethyllead (TML), divalent mercury (Hg 2+ ), monomethylmercury (MeHg), and ethylmercury (EtHg), are highly toxic to humans and ecology. It is of great importance for speciation of lead and mercury to evaluate the toxicity of lead and mercury and their biogeochemistry in the environment. However, simultaneous multi-elemental enrichment and speciation at trace level remains a challenge. There are few reports of simultaneous magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of organic and inorganic lead and mercury species at trace level in the real water. Results In this work, a novel core-shell magnetic hydrazine-linked covalent organic frameworks (Fe 3 O 4 @COF-TCH) was prepared for the first time by grafting hydrazine-linked COFs on the Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. Fe 3 O 4 @COF-TCH with abundant thione and imino groups has strong adsorption for lead and mercury species. Based on it, a simple and practical magnetic solid-phase extraction high-performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MSPE-HPLC-ICP-MS) method was developed for extraction and determination of trace lead and mercury species, including Hg 2+ , MeHg, EtHg, Pb 2+ and TML. The limits of detection (3δ) of the developed method were 0.08, 0.81, 0.90, 0.56 and 0.88 ng L −1 with the enrichment factors (EFs) of 384, 376, 379, 389 and 360-fold for Pb 2+ , TML, Hg 2+ , MeHg and EtHg, respectively. The high accuracy and reproducibility have been proved by the spiked recoveries (94.4–103 %) in real samples. Significance The proposed method with simple operation and high sensitivity has been successfully applied to simultaneous speciation of lead and mercury at trace levels in the water samples with complicated matrices, including underground water, surface water, sea water. Meanwhile, it has the advantages of cost-saving, labor-saving and time-saving and is suitable for the investigation and risk assessment in water. The development of MSPE-HPLC-ICP-MS method provides ideas and guidance for the simultaneous multi-elemental enrichment and speciation.

In this work, a chiral core–shell microspheres composite, L-his-MIL-53-NH2@SiO2, was prepared through in situ growth and chiral post-modification strategies. The core–shell microspheres were applied as a novel chiral stationary phase for HPLC enantiomeric separation. Various racemates were separated on the L-his-MIL-53-NH2@SiO2 packed column using n-hexane/isopropanol as the mobile phase. The chiral column showed excellent separation efficiency for fourteen chiral compounds, including alcohols, alkanes, esters, phenols, ketones, and organic acids. The influence of injection mass and temperature on the separation performance of the chiral column were investigated. The relative standard deviations (n = 5) of the retention time and peak area by repeated separation of benzoin are 0.28% and 0.63%, respectively. The results show that the L-his-MIL-53-NH2@SiO2 packed column exhibited good reproducibility and stability. In addition, the chiral resolution ability of the L-his-MIL-53-NH2@SiO2 packed column was compared with that of a commercial chiral column (Chiralpak AD-H). The L-his-MIL-53-NH2@SiO2 packed column exhibits unique advantages in chiral separations that can be complementary to the commercial chiral column. It was demonstrated that the chiral core–shell microspheres composite L-his-MIL-53-NH2@SiO2 prepared based on in situ growth and chiral post-modification strategies has great potential for enantiomeric separation by HPLC.

The abnormal estrogens levels in human body can cause many side effects and diseases, but the quantitative detection of the trace estrogens in complex biological samples still remains great challenge. Here we reported the fabrication of a novel core-shell structured magnetic cyclodextrin microporous organic network (Fe 3 O 4 @CD-MON) for rapid magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) of four estrogens in human serum and urine samples prior to HPLC-UV determination. The uniform spherical core-shell Fe 3 O 4 @CD-MONs was successfully regulated by altering the reactive monomers and solvents. The Fe 3 O 4 @CD-MONs owned high specific surface area, good hydrophobicity, large superparamagnetism, and abundant extraction sites for estrogens. Under optimal conditions, the proposed MSPE-HPLC-UV method provided wide linearity range (2.0–400 μg L −1 ), low limits of detection (0.5–1.0 μg L −1 ), large enrichment factors (183–198), less adsorbent consumption (3 mg), short extraction time (3 min), and good stability and reusability (at least 8 cycles). The established method had also been successfully applied to the enrichment and detection of four estrogens in serum and urine samples with a recovery of 88.4–105.1 % and a relative standard deviation of 1.0–5.9 %. This work confirmed the feasibility of solvent and monomer regulation synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 @CD-MON composites, and revealed the great prospects of magnetic CD-MONs for efficient enrichment of trace estrogens in complex biological samples.
