Abstract

The invention discloses a liquid chromatogram tandem mass spectrum measurement method for tobacco-specific nitrosamines in electronic cigarette liquid. The liquid chromatogram tandem mass spectrum measurement method is characterized by comprising the step of directly introducing a liquid chromatogram-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometer for measurement after the electronic cigarette liquid is diluted so as to quantify an analyte by adopting an internal standard method. The content of the tobacco-specific nitrosamines in the electronic cigarette liquid can be rapidly and accurately detected. According to the liquid chromatogram tandem mass spectrum measurement method for tobacco-specific nitrosamines in the electronic cigarette liquid, the selectivity and the accuracy of the method are well improved by using a tandem mass spectrography, quantification limits of NNK (Nicotine-derived Nitrosamine Ketone), NNN (N'-Nitrosonornicotine), NAT (N-Nitrosoanatabine) and NAB (N-Nitrosoanabasine) are respectively 0.08ng/mL, 0.10ng/mL, 0.12ng/mL and 0.09ng/mL, the recovery rate range of the method is 90.9-108.1 percent, and the RSD (Relative Standard Deviation) is less than 12.1 percent. By selecting and optimizing a chromatographic column and an elution condition, the chromatographic separation process is well improved, and the chromatographic analysis time is shortened to be 6min.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of physical and chemical testing of electronic cigarettes, in particular to a method for determining the content of tobacco-specific nitrosamines in electronic cigarette smoke liquid by using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometer. Background technique [0002] 4-(Nitrosomethylamino)-1-β-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK), N -Nitrosonornicotine (NNN), N - Nitrosoanatabine (NAT) and N -Nitrosoanabasine (NAB) is a carcinogen widely present in cigarette smoke, and these substances only exist in tobacco products or cigarette smoke, so they are called tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the Hecht research team, etc., the results of the toxicity evaluation of the harmful ingredients in the Canadian government list show that there is sufficient evidence to believe that NNK in TSNAs is carcinogenic to laboratory animals. Therefore, ...
