Quercetin is one of the key active ingredients in hawthorn, and has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardiovascular protection and other effects. In hawthorn, substances with a mass-to-charge ratio similar to that of quercetin, such as kaempferol and isorhamnetin, need to be distinguished from substances with similar mass-to-charge ratios in order to obtain the content of quercetin. The Chinese patent application with publication number CN120314418A discloses a method for determining mangiferin in a mango extract, wherein the method first ionizes sample ions from a target material, and at least part of the sample ions enters a mobility cell, and mass spectrometry data is generated after capturing the sample ions, and the first sampling data and the second sampling data are extracted from the mass spectrometry data. The invention directly ionizes sample ions from the target material, has too many impurities, and has a large degree of fragmentation ions, which is not conducive to the later separation of target detection objects, substances with similar mass-to-charge ratios, and isomers according to the mobility cell, thereby reducing the detection accuracy. Medicinal and edible compositions are typically available in solid forms such as extracts and pills. Due to the uneven mixing of raw materials, multiple slices are required to obtain a three-dimensional distribution of the active ingredients in these compositions in order to more accurately determine the content of each active ingredient. Therefore, further improvements are needed in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] In order to more clearly understand the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application, the present application is described and illustrated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0018] Because direct ionization results in a high number of fragmented ions and impurity ions of the target component in the analyte, the subsequent mass analyzer detects numerous ion peaks and weak ion signal intensity, reducing detection accuracy and prolonging detection time. Laser ablation of the analyte slices produces gas molecules that preserve the molecular structure of the target component (avoiding thermal decomposition or fragmentation). The intact molecular structure of the target component (quercetin) combined with the electrospray droplets results in higher ionization efficiency and a greater tendency to form quasi-molecular ions (such as the target ion with a mass-to-charge ratio of 301.03). This results in high ion signal intensity and minimal interference, resulting in a cleaner ion mobility spectrum, avoiding overlapping peaks, and facilitating detection.
[0019] Among the analytes, substances with similar mass-to-charge ratios to quercetin primarily include flavonoid isomers (such as kaempferol and isorhamnetin) and flavonoid glycoside dissociation products. Because the target ion of quercetin (with a mass-to-charge ratio of 301.03) differs in structure and collision area from the characteristic ions of flavonoid isomers, the mobility cell applies an electric field to cause different migration velocities of different sample ions upon collision with the buffer gas, thereby separating the target ion. This ensures that the target ion and the characteristic ions of the flavonoid isomers arrive at the mass analyzer at different times, eliminating overlap between the target ion peak and the peaks corresponding to other ions in the first ion mobility spectrum, thereby improving detection accuracy. The flight channel operates in a high vacuum environment. Due to the different mass-to-charge ratios of the target ion and other ions, the target ion and other ions in the sample are separated by free flight in this high vacuum environment. Example 1
[0020] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the method for measuring the three-dimensional distribution of the edible and medicinal composition of the present invention includes the following steps.
[0021] Step 1: Place the sample to be detected on the experimental table, and the first light emitter is vertically aligned with the sample to be detected on the experimental table to emit the first laser. Figure 2 As shown, the experimental bench includes a glass cover and a sample table. A vacuum environment is maintained inside the glass cover, and the sample to be detected is placed on the sample table. The sample to be detected is a thin slice, and the first light emitter can be an ultraviolet nanosecond laser. The wavelength of the first laser is 266nm, and the laser energy is initially set to a reference energy, which can be set to 0.1mJ / pulse. The reference energy cannot be too large. If the reference energy is too large, it will easily lead to rapid heating, thermal decomposition of the target component, and premature disappearance of the fluorescence signal. At the same time, all impurities such as sugars, pigments, and pectin in the sample to be detected are thermally decomposed to produce volatile organic compounds. In this embodiment, the target component is quercetin.
[0022] Step 2: The sample to be detected generates gas molecules. The optical transceiver emits a second laser beam toward the gas molecules, generating first spectral data. Based on the first spectral data, the first optical emitter and optical transceiver are shut down, and the first moment is recorded. The optical transceiver includes a second optical emitter and a signal acquisition device. The wavelength of the second laser beam is 370 nm, and the signal acquisition device is equipped with a bandpass filter ranging from 500 nm to 550 nm. The target component (quercetin) generates a fluorescence signal (fluorescence peak at 520 nm) induced by the second laser beam. The bandpass filter blocks fluorescence from pyrolysis products (such as pectin and other impurities) and laser scattering. The signal acquisition device receives the fluorescence signal and generates the first spectral data. The first spectral data is the fluorescence spectrum data. When the fluorescence signal drops to baseline, the first optical emitter and optical transceiver are shut down. The first moment is the moment the first optical emitter and optical transceiver are shut down. Since the target component has a vaporization temperature of approximately 200°C-280°C and a decomposition temperature of 250°C-350°C, the target component is preferentially vaporized by adjusting the laser energy of the first light emitter to control the temperature at 200°C-250°C, while impurities such as sugars remain due to carbonization. The time required for complete vaporization of the target component in the composite slice is analyzed based on the first spectral data, thereby reducing the amount of impurity gas entering the ionization chamber.
[0023] Step 3: Open the first and second valves, introduce carrier gas, and the gas molecules enter the ionization chamber. The ionization chamber generates electrospray to ionize the gas molecules to generate sample ions. Open the third valve to introduce the sample ions into the mobility chamber and record the second moment. Figure 2 As shown, the glass cover contains a first valve and a second valve. The first valve controls the entry of carrier gas into the laboratory bench, while the second valve controls the entry of gas molecules into the ionization chamber. The carrier gas carries gas molecules into the ionization chamber, where sample ions are introduced into the mobility chamber via an ion funnel. The carrier gas is helium, and the ionization chamber is in negative ion mode. The electrospray contains methanol, water, and formic acid, with a mass fraction of 0.1% formic acid and a volume ratio of 70%:30% methanol:water. The third valve controls the entry of sample ions into the mobility chamber, and the second moment is when the third valve opens.
[0024] Step 4: Sample ions pass through the mobility chamber and enter the flight channel. The mass analyzer captures the sample ions, generates a first ion mobility spectrum, and extracts sampling data. The mobility chamber contains a buffer gas, helium. Sample ions are concentrated by an ion funnel and filtered through the carrier gas before being introduced into the mobility chamber to avoid affecting the mobility pressure of the mobility chamber. A first migration interval is calculated based on the first property of the target component and the buffer gas. A first flight interval is calculated based on the second property of the target component and the buffer gas. The sampling interval of the target component is calculated based on the first migration interval and the first flight interval. The minimum and maximum sampling times of the target component are then calculated based on the second time and the sampling interval. Sampling data is extracted from the first ion mobility spectrum based on these minimum and maximum sampling times. The flight channel is maintained in a high vacuum environment, and the sampling data is the target ion peak. The first property is the ion collision cross section, and the second property is the mass-to-charge ratio.
[0025] Step 5: Repeat steps 1 to 4 to obtain a sampling data set, optimize the erosion parameters, ionization parameters, and mobility parameters, obtain a standard curve for the target component, prepare multiple composition slices of the object to be detected, and place the composition slices on the laboratory table in the order of slicing. The erosion parameters include the energy and spot size of the first laser. The ionization parameters include the ionization voltage. The mobility parameters include the electric field gradient and the electric field intensity. The flight parameters include the acceleration voltage, the flight path length, and the pulse frequency. The sampling data set includes sampling data under multiple different parameters, and an algorithm parameter set is obtained based on the sampling data set, and the algorithm parameter set includes the symmetry factor and the peak width. An objective function is established based on the algorithm parameter set, and the erosion parameters, ionization parameters, and mobility parameters are optimized based on the objective function and the optimization algorithm to obtain target erosion parameters, target ionization parameters, and target mobility parameters. The optimization algorithm can be a particle swarm algorithm, an ant colony algorithm, etc.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the abscissa is time and the ordinate is ion signal intensity. The symmetry factor is the peak symmetry of the target ion peak in the ion mobility spectrum, which reflects the transmission efficiency of the sample ions. Its value is equal to the ratio of the peak front width of the target ion peak (the horizontal distance from 5% of the peak front to 50% of the peak height) to the peak trailing edge width (the horizontal distance from 50% of the peak height to 95% of the peak trailing edge). The peak width is the width of the target ion peak in the ion mobility spectrum, usually expressed as the full width at half maximum, that is, the width of the target ion peak at half its height. The narrower the peak width, the better the focus of the target ion (quercetin produces ions with a mass-to-charge ratio of 301.03 in negative ion mode), the less collision loss, and the higher the resolution.
[0027] Step 6: Obtain the 2D data and thickness of the composite slice and divide the target grid. Figure 4As shown, two-dimensional data of the composite slice is obtained by scanning with a three-dimensional positioning system, a slice center is generated according to the two-dimensional data of the composite slice, a grid size is adjusted according to the spot size of the first laser, a target grid is divided by the slice center, and the target grid is displayed by a low-power LED grid, thereby reducing the impact on gasification and detection.
[0028] Step 7: Move the first optical transmitter and optical transceiver according to the target grid, repeat steps 1 to 4, obtain the second ion mobility spectrum, and calculate the content of the target component in the target grid. Figure 5 As shown, the first light emitter and the optical transceiver are both located outside the glass cover. The center of the first light emitter's spot is aligned with the center of the target grid. The first laser is perpendicular to the laboratory table, and the optical transceiver is parallel to the laboratory table. The second laser is not in the same plane as the first laser to prevent the second laser from affecting the vaporization process of the target component. The minimum and maximum sampling times are recalculated, and the target ion peak of the second ion mobility spectrum is intercepted. The standard curve is a curve showing the relationship between the target component content and the intensity of the target ion peak under the target ablation parameters, target ionization parameters, and target mobility parameters.
[0029] Step 8: If all target grids are traversed, determine whether all composite slices are traversed. If so, proceed to step 9. Otherwise, place the next composite slice on the lab bench and return to step 6. Otherwise, proceed to the next target grid and return to step 7.
[0030] Step 9: Generate multiple three-dimensional slice models based on the two-dimensional data and thickness of the composite slice and the content of the target component in multiple target grids, and establish a three-dimensional content model of the object to be detected. Figure 6 As shown, according to the filled arrow, the target grid is aligned with the two-dimensional data of the composite slice, the content of the target component in the corresponding target grid is filled with the two-dimensional data (x, y, S), and the two-dimensional data is widened according to the thickness to generate a three-dimensional slice model (x, y, D i , S), align the slice center of each composite slice with the three-dimensional slice model, stack multiple three-dimensional slice models in sequence to establish a three-dimensional content model (x, y, D, S) of the object to be detected, where x is the horizontal coordinate of the target grid, y is the vertical coordinate of the target grid, S is the content of the target component, and D i is the thickness of the composition slice i, and D is the thickness of the object to be detected. The content and uniform distribution of the target component are clearly displayed based on the three-dimensional content model of the object to be detected. Example 2
[0031] like Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment further discloses the principle of the method for measuring the three-dimensional distribution of the medicine-food composition.
[0032] Carrier gas flows from the second valve port at a predetermined flow rate (1 L / min) and enters the ionization chamber 100 through the first conduit 101. The first conduit 101 is heated to a predetermined temperature to prevent condensation of gas molecules. Electrospray enters the ionization chamber 100 through the second conduit 102. The electrospray generated in the ionization chamber 100 ionizes the gas molecules to produce sample ions. The ionized sample ions are collected by an ion funnel and filtered by the carrier gas before entering the first collimator channel 200. Buffer gas enters the mobility cell 300 through the third conduit 103. The mobility cell 300 has an entrance gate 301 and an exit gate 302. When these gates are open, sample ions can freely enter and exit. The first collimator channel 200 modulates the sample ions into a first ion beam. When the exit gate 302 is open, at least a portion of the sample ions enter the second collimator channel 400, which modulates the sample ions into a second ion beam, which is then directed into the flight channel 500. In order to reduce other interferences, an exhaust duct 506 may be provided on the side wall of the flight channel 500 to reduce the internal air pressure.
[0033] When the second ion beam enters the flight channel 500, its vertical speed is first accelerated by the repulsion zone 501 and the acceleration zone 502. When the second ion beam enters the field-free zone 503, it maintains a uniform speed. Then, under the action of the first reflection zone 504 and the second reflection zone 505, it is first decelerated to 0 and then accelerated in the opposite direction. When it enters the field-free zone 503 again, it maintains a uniform speed until the second ion beam falls on the mass analyzer 600. However, its horizontal speed remains unchanged during the flight. Example 3

The laboratory bench includes a glass cover that maintains a vacuum environment and a sample stage for holding a sample to be detected and a slice of the composition. The first light emitter is used to emit a first laser beam to ablate the slice of the composition and the sample to be detected, vaporizing the slice of the composition and the sample to be detected and generating gas molecules. The optical transceiver includes a second light emitter that emits a second laser beam to the gas molecules and a signal acquisition device that collects fluorescence signals to generate first spectral data. The ionization chamber is used to generate an electrospray to ionize the gas molecules to generate sample ions. The mobility chamber is used to distinguish target ions from other ions with similar mass-to-charge ratios. The ion funnel is connected to the ionization chamber and the mobility chamber to filter impurity gases and direct sample ions from the ionization chamber into the mobility chamber. The flight channel separates target ions from other ions with different mass-to-charge ratios within the sample ion system through free flight in a high vacuum environment. The mass analyzer captures the sample ions and generates a primary ion mobility spectrum and a secondary ion mobility spectrum. The 3D positioning system acquires 2D data and thickness of the composite slice, creates a target grid, and moves the primary optical emitter and optical transceiver according to the target grid, replacing the composite slice to complete the measurement.
