Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of data processing technology, and in particular to a method for processing data of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives. Background Art

[0002] Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a class of aromatic compounds containing two or more benzene rings. They are persistent in the environment due to their stable chemical structure. PAHs come from natural sources (such as forest fires) and anthropogenic sources (such as fossil fuel combustion), accumulate in ecosystems and food chains, and pose a serious threat to human health. Therefore, how to qualitatively and quantitatively identify PAHs and PAHs derivatives such as alkyl PAHs, nitro PAHs, halogenated PAHs, and oxy-PAHs has become a topic of concern.

[0003] In the related art, the aforementioned diverse PAHs derivatives in environmental samples can be qualitatively and quantitatively identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), wherein GC-MS usually relies on library search and mass defect analysis. However, the former is limited by the coverage of the library and cannot effectively identify all known and unknown PAHs; the latter, the presence of a large number of non-biological related mass spectral interference signals (such as isotopes, adducts and neutral losses) in the mass spectral data reduces the accuracy of PAHs and PAHs derivatives identification, affecting the precise qualitative and precise quantification of PAHs and PAHs derivatives.

[0079] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0080] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0081] PAHs are carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic, and can cause diseases such as lung cancer, skin cancer and bladder cancer. In addition, PAHs can cause respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and aggravate symptoms such as asthma. The complex structure of PAHs and the diversity of their derivatives, such as alkyl PAHs, nitro PAHs, halogenated PAHs and oxo PAHs, pose significant challenges. These derivatives exhibit different chemical behaviors and toxicity. For example, nitro PAHs are formed in diesel exhaust and are particularly mutagenic and carcinogenic. Advanced analytical techniques are essential to accurately distinguish and quantify these diverse PAHs derivatives in environmental samples.

[0082] Mass spectrometry is an important technical means in omics research. It analyzes the compounds in the sample by measuring the mass-to-charge ratio (m / z) of molecular ions. The basic principle of mass spectrometry is to ionize the compounds in the sample to generate charged ions. These ions are separated and detected in an electric or magnetic field according to their mass-to-charge ratio. The signal output by the mass spectrometer is usually expressed in the form of a secondary mass spectrum, with the horizontal axis representing the mass-to-charge ratio and the vertical axis representing the relative abundance of the ions.

[0083] In related technologies, GC-MS identification and recognition of PAHs mainly rely on two methods: library search and mass defect analysis.

[0084] Specifically, library retrieval refers to comparing the experimentally obtained mass spectrum with a database of standard mass spectra of known compounds. Unknown compounds are identified by comparing the mass-to-charge ratio (m / z) and the relative abundance of fragment ions. This method relies on high-quality standard libraries, such as the NIST mass spectral library or MassBank. If the PAHs in the sample have a high degree of match with the standard spectra in the database, these compounds can be identified with high confidence. However, the limitation of library retrieval is that the coverage of the library is seriously insufficient. Although there are many mass spectra of standard substances in the mass spectral library, it is still far from covering all known and unknown PAHs compounds. Therefore, when the PAHs in the sample are not in the database, PAHs and PAHs derivatives cannot be accurately identified.

[0085] Mass defect analysis is an analytical method based on the accurate mass of compounds. It normalizes the masses of compounds of different chain lengths by recalibrating the experimental mass spectrometry data to the Kendrick Mass (KM) mass. Mass defect analysis can effectively cluster and identify compounds containing different heteroatoms, which helps to screen potential PAHs candidates. However, the limitation of mass defect analysis is that the number of false positive candidates is very large: the candidate list generated by mass defect analysis can be very large, especially when dealing with complex environmental samples, which requires a lot of subsequent verification work.

[0086] Based on this, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. The data processing method for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives provided in the embodiment of the present application is a spectral feature recognition process for PAHs, which aims to extract PAH compounds from non-targeted analysis of gas chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (GC-HRMS). The process first deconvolutes and purifies the collected data, and then evaluates the characteristic distribution of N secondary mass spectra of the analyte through a machine learning model. In addition, by identifying doubly charged ions and molecular formula predictions, a potential list of molecular formulas is finally output to identify the structures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives.

[0087] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 2 , the data processing of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives provided in the embodiments of the present application is described in detail through specific examples.

[0088] First, combine Figure 1 The data processing method of PAHs and PAHs derivatives is explained in detail.

[0089] Figure 1 A flowchart of a method for processing data of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0090] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for processing data of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives may include steps 110 to 140 .

[0091] Step 110, obtaining N secondary mass spectra of the analyte, where N is an integer greater than 1; step 120, performing feature recognition on each of the N secondary mass spectra through a machine learning model to obtain a feature distribution evaluation result of M features corresponding to each secondary mass spectra, where M is a positive integer; step 130, screening a first target secondary mass spectrum from the N secondary mass spectra, where the first target secondary mass spectrum is a secondary mass spectrum including a double-charged secondary mass spectrum and a single-charged secondary mass spectrum matching the double-charged secondary mass spectrum among the N secondary mass spectra; step 140, generating a molecular formula list of the analyte based on the feature distribution evaluation result of the M features corresponding to each secondary mass spectrum and the first target secondary mass spectrum, where the molecular formula list includes at least one molecular formula for representing the composition and structure of the analyte, and the molecular formula is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives.

[0092] In this way, by introducing the recognition method of PAHs and PAHs derivatives using machine learning models and high-resolution mass spectrometry technology, the accuracy and identification coverage of PAHs and PAHs derivatives can be effectively improved. In addition, by introducing the recognition of doubly charged secondary mass spectra and molecular formula prediction, the recognition process of PAHs and PAHs derivatives is further optimized, and the reliability of the identification results is improved. At the same time, the workflow of the automated identification of PAHs and PAHs derivatives significantly reduces the workload of manual verification and improves the efficiency of identifying PAHs and PAHs derivatives.

[0093] The above steps are described in detail below, as shown below.

[0094] First, referring to step 110, in some embodiments of the present application, before step 110, the method for processing data of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives may further include step 150, performing deconvolution and purification on the mass spectrum data of the analyte to obtain N secondary mass spectra.

[0095] Next, step 120 is involved. In some embodiments of the present application, the machine learning model includes a normalization model and a random forest model. Based on this, step 120 may specifically include step 1201 and step 1202, as shown below.

[0096] Step 1201, normalizing each of the N secondary mass spectra using a normalization model to obtain a normalized secondary mass spectrum corresponding to each secondary mass spectrum.

[0097] Step 1202, performing feature recognition on the normalized secondary mass spectrum through a random forest model, and obtaining feature distribution evaluation results of M features corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum.

[0098] Exemplarily, the m / z of all N secondary mass spectra are divided by the m / z of the molecular ion peak of the corresponding secondary mass spectra and normalized to a range of 0-100%. After normalization, the distribution of any secondary mass spectra is comparable, thereby providing a unified framework for analyzing secondary mass spectra.

[0099] Further, in some embodiments, each of the N secondary mass spectra corresponds to the mass-to-charge ratio of a molecular ion peak. Based on this, step 1201 may specifically include step 12011 and step 12012.

[0100] Step 12011, according to the accumulated value of the ion intensity corresponding to each of the N secondary mass spectra, obtain the summary ion intensity of all fragments of the N secondary mass spectra.

[0101] Step 12012, normalize the aggregated mass-to-charge ratio related to the aggregated ion intensity and the mass-to-charge ratio of the fragments of each secondary mass spectrum to obtain a normalized secondary mass spectrum corresponding to each secondary mass spectrum.

[0102] In some embodiments, involving the above step 1202, based on the evaluation framework of the characteristic distribution evaluation results of the M characteristics of the secondary mass spectrum, the embodiment of the present application provides three types of machine learning features to evaluate the characteristics of the spectrum, and trains and optimizes a random forest model to identify the fragment distribution characteristics of PAHs. The random forest model identifies PAHs based on characteristics such as regional intensity ratio, skewness, entropy, and base peak ratio.

[0103] The M features in the embodiment of the present application include at least one of the following: regional intensity ratio, skewness, entropy, and base-peak ratio. Among them, the regional intensity ratio is used to characterize the proportion of the ion signal intensity of each secondary mass spectrogram in the total ion signal intensity of N secondary mass spectrograms. Skewness is used to characterize the degree of symmetry of the distribution of the mass-to-charge ratio of each secondary mass spectrogram in the mass-to-charge ratio of N secondary mass spectrograms. Entropy is used to characterize the degree of disorder of the mass-to-charge ratio of each secondary mass spectrogram in the mass-to-charge ratio of N secondary mass spectrograms. The base-peak ratio is used to characterize the relative degree of the base peak mass-to-charge ratio and the molecular ion peak mass-to-charge ratio in each secondary mass spectrogram.

[0104] Thus, after the m / z is normalized to the range of 0-100% after being divided by the m / z of [M]+ (molecular ion peak), and after being divided into three equal parts, three regional intensity intervals can be obtained. At this time, the difference in the distribution ratio of the intensity ratio values ​​of PAHs and PAHs compounds in these three regions, and the unique regional intensity ratio of PAHs relative to other compounds enable machine learning to learn the spectral features of PAHs for specific identification. Therefore, the above four features can better calculate and evaluate the regional intensity ratio, skewness, entropy, base peak ratio and other features of the fragments in the mass spectrometry data, thereby improving the recognition accuracy and efficiency of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their derivatives.

[0105] The following describes in detail the feature distribution evaluation results of M features corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum based on different features.

[0106] In some embodiments, the M features are region intensity ratios (RIRs), and the feature distribution results include a first feature distribution result corresponding to the region intensity ratios.

[0107] Based on this, step 1202 may specifically include step 12021 and step 12022.

[0108] Step 12021, using a random forest model, identifies the ion signal intensity of the normalized secondary mass spectrometer and the total ion signal intensity of N normalized secondary mass spectra; wherein the total ion signal intensity of the N normalized secondary mass spectra is the total ion signal intensity of the N secondary mass spectra.

[0109] Step 12022, determine the ratio of the ion signal intensity of the normalized secondary mass spectrometer to the total ion signal intensity of N normalized secondary mass spectra as the first characteristic distribution result.

[0110] For example, RIR can be calculated by the following formula (1):

[0111]

[0112] in, It represents the sum of all fragment intensities in a specific area, that is, the ion signal intensity of the normalized secondary mass spectrum. Represents the total ion signal intensity.

[0113] In other embodiments, the M features are skewness, the feature distribution result includes a second feature distribution result corresponding to the skewness, each of the N secondary mass spectra corresponds to a mass-to-charge ratio, and the mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum is the mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the secondary mass spectrum corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum.

[0114] Based on this, step 1202 may specifically include step 12023 and step 12024.

[0115] Step 12023, based on the mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum and the average mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to N normalized secondary mass spectra, calculate the difference between the mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum and the average mass-to-charge ratio.

[0116] Step 12024, determine the ratio of the difference value to the product of the standard deviation of the mass-to-charge ratios corresponding to N normalized secondary mass spectra and the first quantity of the normalized secondary mass spectra as the second characteristic distribution result; wherein the first quantity is N-1.

[0117] For example, Skewness can be calculated by the following formula (2):

[0118]

[0119] Where x represents the mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the normalized secondary mass spectrum, represents the average value of the mass-to-charge ratios corresponding to N normalized secondary mass spectra, N represents the second number of normalized secondary mass spectra, and the value of the second number is N, and s represents the standard deviation value of the mass-to-charge ratios corresponding to the N normalized secondary mass spectra.

[0120] In some further embodiments, the M features are entropy, and the feature distribution result includes a third feature distribution result corresponding to the entropy.

[0121] Based on this, step 1202 may specifically include step 12025 and step 12027.

[0122] Step 12025, identifying the relative ion signal intensities of P ion peaks in the normalized secondary mass spectrum, where P is an integer greater than 1.

[0123] Step 12026, based on the relative ion signal intensity of each ion peak in the P ion peaks, the aggregate relative ion signal intensity of the P ion peaks is counted.

[0124] Step 12027, determining the ion signal intensity after normalization of the aggregated relative ion signal intensity as the third characteristic distribution result.

[0125] For example, Entropy can be calculated by the following formula (3):

[0126]

[0127] Where x represents the relative ion signal intensity of each ion peak in the normalized secondary mass spectrum, N represents the total number of normalized secondary mass spectra, and log represents logarithmic operation. The summary relative ion signal intensities were normalized to convert them into probabilities.

[0128] In some further embodiments, the M features are base peak ratios (BPR), and the feature distribution results include a fourth feature distribution result corresponding to the base peak ratio, and the BPR is used to characterize the relative degree of the base peak mass-to-charge ratio and the molecular ion peak mass-to-charge ratio in each secondary mass spectrum.

[0129] Based on this, step 1202 may specifically include step 12028.

[0130] Step 12028, the ratio of the mass-to-charge ratio of the base peak fragment in the normalized secondary mass spectrum to the mass-to-charge ratio of the molecular ion peaks in the N normalized secondary mass spectra is determined as the base peak ratio. The base peak fragment can be the peak with the highest ion signal intensity in the normalized secondary mass spectrum.

[0131] For example, the BPR can be calculated by the following formula (4):

[0132]

[0133] Among them, x B represents the mass-to-charge ratio of the base peak fragment (i.e., the peak with the highest intensity) in the normalized secondary mass spectrum, x M Represents the mass-to-charge ratio of the molecular ion peaks of N normalized secondary mass spectra.

[0134] Therefore, the data processing method of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives in the embodiment of the present application can improve the identification accuracy and efficiency of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their derivatives by calculating and evaluating the characteristics such as regional intensity ratio, skewness and entropy of the fragments in the mass spectrometry data.

[0135] Furthermore, with respect to step 130, in some embodiments of the present application, step 130 may specifically include steps 1301 to 1304, as shown below.

[0136] Step 1301, screening a candidate secondary mass spectrum from N secondary mass spectra according to the isotope difference value of the mass-to-charge ratio between the doubly charged fragments, the candidate secondary mass spectrum being a doubly charged secondary mass spectrum.

[0137] Step 1302, based on the first mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the candidate secondary mass spectrum, calculate a second mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the first mass-to-charge ratio, the second mass-to-charge ratio being the mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the single-charged secondary mass spectrum matching the candidate secondary mass spectrum.

[0138] Step 1303: Based on the second mass-to-charge ratio, a singly charged secondary mass spectrum matching the candidate secondary mass spectrum is screened from the N secondary mass spectra.

[0139] Step 1304: determine the singly charged secondary mass spectrum and the candidate secondary mass spectrum as the first target secondary mass spectrum.

[0140] For example, Figure 2 As shown, by calculating the m / z-specific isotopic difference between the doubly charged fragments, that is, the isotopic difference value of the mass-to-charge ratio between the doubly charged fragments, such as 0.5 Dalton, the doubly charged secondary mass spectra are identified, such as the secondary mass spectra corresponding to the first mass-to-charge ratios of 276, 276.5, and 277. Then, for each candidate doubly charged secondary mass spectra, the expected mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the matching single-charged secondary mass spectra is calculated, for example, the first mass-to-charge ratio is 276, and the second mass-to-charge ratio corresponding to the first mass-to-charge ratio 276 is 138. At this time, the single-charged secondary mass spectra with the second mass-to-charge ratio of 138 and the doubly charged secondary mass spectra with the first mass-to-charge ratio of 276 can be determined as the first target secondary mass spectra.

[0141] Therefore, doubly charged fragments can be identified by high-resolution mass spectrometry based on the m / z differences of isotopes between fragments, and combined with molecular formula prediction, the accuracy and reliability of the identification results can be ensured, effectively solving the problem of PAHs identification in complex samples.

[0142] Then, step 140 is involved. In some embodiments of the present application, step 140 may specifically include step 1401 and step 1402, as shown below.

[0143] Step 1401, based on the feature distribution evaluation results of M features corresponding to each secondary mass spectrum, a second target secondary mass spectrum is screened from N secondary mass spectra, and the feature distribution evaluation results of the M features corresponding to the second target secondary mass spectrum meet preset conditions.

[0144] Step 1402, performing molecular formula prediction on the first target secondary mass spectrum and the second target secondary mass spectrum to obtain a molecular formula list of the analyte.

[0145] For example, after confirming the doubly charged fragments, the Rdisop tool can be used to predict the molecular formula, limiting the elemental composition within a certain range (the carbon-hydrogen ratio of the PAHs molecular formula is significantly higher than that of other types of molecules). The accuracy of PAHs identification is ensured through molecular formula verification. The figure above shows that doubly charged fragments are a mass spectral feature unique to PAHs under high-resolution mass spectrometry.

[0146] Therefore, the automated PAHs identification workflow can significantly reduce the workload of manual intervention through standardized and automated processing steps, improve the efficiency and accuracy of PAHs identification, and is suitable for rapid screening and identification of large-scale environmental samples.
