Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food and drug analysis, specifically providing a method for simultaneously detecting 13 triterpenoid compounds in the fruiting body of Ganoderma lucidum. Background Technology

[0002] Ganoderma sinense, a fungus belonging to the phylum Basidiomycota, class Agaricomycetes, order Polyporales, family Ganodermataceae, and genus Ganoderma P. Karst, is listed as a type of "Lingzhi" medicinal material in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and can be used in the development of pharmaceuticals, health foods, and food-medicine homologous functional foods. For a long time, people have confused the functions of another medicinal material in the Pharmacopoeia, Ganoderma lucidum (also known as Ganodermalingzhi), with Ganoderma sinense, and the same chemical method has been used to determine the triterpenoids in both. In reality, the fruiting body of Ganoderma sinense contains various types of terpenoids, including triterpenoids, sesquiterpenoids, and heteroterpenoids. Compared with Ganoderma lucidum or other species in the genus Ganoderma, the triterpenoid content in Ganoderma sinense is generally lower, and known detection methods are often difficult to use, especially when detecting it simultaneously with other triterpenoid compounds, which presents significant challenges. Therefore, in order to evaluate Ganoderma lucidum raw materials and develop its products in a targeted manner, it is necessary to establish a dedicated method for the simultaneous detection of several Ganoderma lucidum triterpenoid compounds.

[0044] Preferably, in step (4), ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS / MS) is used as the analytical instrument. The UHPLC conditions are as follows: Column: Agilent Eclipse Plus C18 column (1.8 μm, 2.1 × 50 mm). Detection wavelength: 254 nm. Column temperature: 35 °C. Sample loading volume: 2 μL. Flow rate: 0.4 mL / min. Mobile phase: 0.01% acetic acid aqueous solution (A) - acetonitrile (B).

[0045] The basis for this invention's ability to simultaneously detect 13 triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies is that, under ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS / MS), these 13 triterpenoid compounds not only achieved baseline separation but also conformed to primary precursor ion and secondary daughter ion pair parameter information under specific mass spectrometry conditions. This technique achieves both accurate qualitative analysis of triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum through retention time and characteristic ion information, and precise quantification of trace amounts of triterpenoids. Therefore, this method is currently the most accurate triterpenoid detection technique in Ganoderma lucidum.

[0046] The detection method of this invention relies not only on retention time but also on parent and daughter ion pairs to accurately qualitatively and quantitatively identify up to 13 triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies. In particular, Ganoderic acid GS-1, Ganoderic acid GS-2, and Ganoderic acid GS-3 are difficult to detect using previous methods due to their low concentrations in Ganoderma lucidum fruiting body extracts. Compared to previous chemical methods, the detection method of this invention offers higher accuracy, sensitivity, and resolution, making it more suitable for the simultaneous detection and analysis of multiple triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies, extracts, and related products.

[0047] This invention provides a method for simultaneously detecting 13 triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies. By using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), it can effectively qualitatively identify and accurately detect triterpenoids at ppb levels in Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies. This method is suitable for developing a detection method for evaluating triterpenoid compounds in Ganoderma lucidum raw materials and products, providing technical support for the quality evaluation and targeted development of Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies.

[0099] 6.

[0101] Methodological validation was conducted in accordance with laboratory quality control standards, food physicochemical testing standards, and relevant pharmacopoeia regulations.

[0102] 1. Precision: A 5 μg / mL standard mixture solution was injected six times on the same day. The concentrations of the triterpenes obtained from the six experiments were calculated based on the standard curve, and the intra-day precision was calculated. The 5 μg / mL standard mixture solution was injected twice daily for three consecutive days, and the inter-day precision was calculated based on the results of the six experiments. The results showed that the RSDs of the intra-day and inter-day precision determinations of the 13 triterpenoid compounds were all less than 15.00%, indicating that the method has good intra-day and inter-day precision. Specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0103] 2. Stability: Five fruiting bodies were taken, and after extracting fruiting body sample 4 according to the sample pretreatment steps in Example 1, one sample solution was prepared. The sample was injected at 0h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 12h, and 24h, respectively. The sample stability was calculated based on the results of the seven experiments. The results confirmed that the RSD of all 13 triterpenoid compounds was less than 15.00%, indicating that the samples were stable within 24 hours. Specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0104] 3. Repeatability: Four fruiting body samples were taken, and six parallel samples were weighed. Each sample was extracted according to the sample pretreatment steps in Example 1, and the resulting sample solutions were prepared and injected for analysis. The repeatability of the samples was calculated based on the results of the six experiments. The results confirmed that the RSDs of all 13 triterpenoid compounds were less than 15.00%, indicating good sample repeatability. Specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0105] 4. Recovery Rate: Take a sample of known concentration, add 13 triterpenoid standard samples, mix well, and repeat the loading three times. Calculate the sample recovery rate. Recovery rate % = (Measured value - Amount of analyte in the test sample) / Amount of added reference standard × 100%

[0106] The specific recovery results are shown in Table 3. The results confirm that the RSD of the recoveries of the 13 triterpenoid compounds in the samples were all within 15.00%, which meets the method requirements.
