Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of analysis and detection, and particularly relates to a method for detecting diazepam, nordiazepam and nordiazepam isomer BP-271 in fish meat. Background Art

[0002] Diazepam (DZP, also known as Valium) is a long-acting benzodiazepine with clinical efficacy as a sedative, hypnotic, and anxiolytic. However, human metabolism may cause diazepam to contaminate aquatic environments. Furthermore, diazepam is commonly used in aquaculture, transportation, and fishing bait. For example, if 13.0 to 389.7 mg of diazepam is introduced into water bodies during baiting, this can cause a temporary increase in diazepam concentrations in localized waters, contaminating aquatic products. This can ultimately lead to the accumulation of diazepam and its metabolites in animals, where it can biomagnify and subsequently enter the human body through the food chain or the water cycle, potentially inducing adverse reactions such as neurotoxicity.

[0003] Emerging contaminants (ECs), represented by diazepam, are frequently detected in water environments worldwide. These substances have attracted widespread attention due to their environmental persistence and bioaccumulation. Georg Braun et al. found that the cumulative toxicity of multiple compounds can cause significant neurotoxicity even at concentrations below the effect threshold of individual substances. Existing wastewater treatment technologies are unable to effectively remove ECs, resulting in their entry into the natural environment through the water cycle, posing a threat to human health.

[0004] Conventional tap water disinfection processes mostly use chlorine disinfection to treat water samples to reduce the occurrence of waterborne infectious diseases. However, during the chlorine disinfection process, diazepam in the water will react with the disinfectant to form chlorine disinfection by-products (DBPs). Studies have shown that some DBPs are more toxic and mutagenic than the parent compounds. Carpinteiro et al. speculated through computer simulation that DBPs are more harmful to the human body than the parent compounds. A technology has successfully identified 5 emerging DBPs of diazepam by simulating chlorine disinfection experiments using high-resolution mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and 4 of them have been detected in actual drinking water, one of which is BP-271 with a molecular formula of C 15 H 11 N2OCl and the diazepam metabolite nordiazepam (NZP) in fish are isomers with structures shown in Formula I. The total concentration of the four diazepam DBPs ranges from 0.6 ng / L to 7.37 ng / L. Existing technologies have only detected the presence of BP-271 in water environments and have not tested its presence in fish. Furthermore, the accuracy of existing technologies for detecting diazepam, nordiazepam, and BP-271 needs to be further improved.

[0063] Example 1

[0064] Fish muscles were homogenized, and the surimi samples were placed in 50 mL centrifuge tubes and frozen at −20 °C until analysis;

[0065] Accurately weigh 2.00 g of the thawed fish meat, let it stand for 5 minutes, then add 10 mL of acetonitrile, quickly shake the fish meat and extract it by vortexing for 20 minutes, and then ultrasonically extract it for 30 minutes; then add 2 g of NaCl and vortex for 5 minutes, centrifuge at 9000 r / min for 4 minutes, take the supernatant and prepare 5 mL of 90% acetonitrile aqueous solution, and pass it through C 18 / PSA column, discard 1 mL, and collect the remaining 4 mL of purified liquid; concentrate the purified liquid to near dryness, add 0.3 mL of acetonitrile to redissolve it, and make up to 1 mL with ultrapure water.

[0067] Qualitative analysis results and analysis

[0068] The fish matrix diazepam-positive samples were preliminarily screened by high-resolution mass spectrometry full scan mode. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, when extracting the chromatographic peak of nordiazepam, it was found that the characteristic fragment ion of m / z 271.0632 existed at the retention time (RT) of 2.71 and 3.19 min. The secondary mass spectrum was further obtained using the product ion mode. The nordiazepam standard showed that its quasi-molecular ion peak in the positive ion mode was m / z 271.0632 ([M+H] + ), further fragmentation yielded highly abundant characteristic fragment ions at m / z 140.0262, m / z 208.0996, and m / z 165.0214. The primary fragment ions and abundances in the nordiazepam standard matched those in the corresponding mass spectrometry spectrum of the compound at RT 2.71 min, although another peak was not completely identical. In addition to the matching fragments, the mass spectrometry spectrum at RT 3.19 min contained other relatively abundant fragment ions, primarily m / z 221.0709 and m / z 193.0163. Furthermore, under collision energy conditions of 70, the fragment 271.0632 at RT 2.71 min was completely fragmented, but remained abundant at RT 3.19 min. In summary, this compound is hypothesized to be a new compound with a similar ionic structure to nordiazepam.

[0069] The secondary mass spectrum was obtained by running in product ion mode under positive ion conditions. The secondary mass spectrum of the chromatographic peak at RT 3.19min is shown in the figure below. Figure 2 As shown, 271.0632 is the quasi-molecular ion peak ([M+H] +), it is speculated that m / z 193.0163 is generated by the loss of C6H6, that is, [M+H-C6H6] + m / z 165.0214 is the loss of C6H6 followed by the loss of CO, [M+H-C6H6-CO] + ; m / z 221.0708 is [M+H-CH3-Cl] + , that is, removing CH3 and Cl, it was believed that there was another unknown compound related to diazepam in the fish meat. It was subsequently found that the compound was consistent with the secondary mass spectrum of diazepam chlorine disinfection by-products, and was named BP-271.

[0070] Example 2

[0071] After qualitative analysis, the recovery was calculated by the internal standard method using diazepam-D5 as the internal standard for diazepam, and nordiazepam-D5 as the internal standard for nordiazepam-D5 and BP-271;

[0072] 2.00 g of the thawed fish meat was accurately weighed, and 20 μL (400 ng / mL) of the mixed internal standard solution was added to obtain a diazepam-positive fish meat sample; after standing for 5 minutes, 10 mL of acetonitrile was added, the fish meat was quickly shaken and vortexed for 20 minutes, and ultrasonically extracted for 30 minutes; 2 g of NaCl was then added and vortexed for 5 minutes, centrifuged at 9000 r / min for 4 minutes, and the supernatant was prepared into 5 mL of 90% acetonitrile aqueous solution, and the mixture was filtered through a C 18 / PSA column, discard 1 mL, and collect the remaining 4 mL of purified liquid; after concentrating the purified liquid to near dryness, add 0.3 mL of acetonitrile to re-dissolve it, and make up to 1 mL with ultrapure water. Filter through a 0.22 μm PTFE filter membrane to obtain the test solution for quantitative analysis.

[0073] For the quantitative analysis of the test solution, the mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: electrospray ionization source, operating in positive ion mode under multiple reaction monitoring (MRM); capillary voltage 0.5 kV, ion source temperature 150 ° C, desolvation temperature 500 ° C, desolvation gas flow rate 800 L / h, cone hole backflush gas flow rate 150 L / h. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography conditions were: using ACQUITY UPLC BEH C 18Chromatographic separation was performed on a chromatographic column (specifications: 100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) at 35°C, with 0.1% formic acid water as mobile phase A, acetonitrile as mobile phase B, and a gradient elution program: 0-2.00 min, 30% B; 2.00-7.00 min, 30%-70% B; 7.00-9.00 min, 70-100% B; 9.00 min, 100% B; 10.00-10.10 min, 100%-30% B, held for 1.9 min; flow rate: 0.3 mL / min, injection volume: 2 μL; MassLynx software was used for quantitative analysis of diazepam, desmethyldiazepam, and BP-271.

[0074] The retention times and mass spectrometric parameters of the three compounds and the corresponding internal standard solutions are shown in Table 1. The MRM chromatograms are shown in Figure 3 shown.

[0076]

[0077] Example 3

[0078] Quantitative detection was performed according to the method described in Example 2, except that mobile phase B was replaced with methanol; the chromatograms of the mixed standard solution of nordiazepam and BP-271 separated by different mobile phases were as follows: Figure 4 shown.

[0079] Figure 4 The left side of the figure is acetonitrile as mobile phase B, and the right side is methanol as mobile phase B. Figure 4 It can be seen that when methanol is used as the organic phase mobile phase B, the chromatographic peaks of nordiazepam and BP-271 in the mixed standard overlap and have the same retention time, making it impossible to separate them. After adjusting the elution gradient, column temperature, flow rate and other parameters, no separation was achieved. It is speculated that the polarity and hydrophobicity of nordiazepam and BP-271 are similar, resulting in the difference between the two in C 18 The retention difference on the column is small, making it difficult to separate; however, when acetonitrile is used as mobile phase B, the two substances can be effectively separated, meeting the requirements of quantitative analysis. It is speculated that the reason is that acetonitrile has stronger elution and solubility than methanol in reversed-phase liquid chromatography.

[0080] In addition, after comparing the secondary mass spectrometry information of nordiazepam and BP-271, it was found that the secondary fragments of the two were highly consistent, and the separation required the help of chromatography. + In this mode, using an aqueous phase containing formic acid can improve the protonation efficiency of the compound and enhance the chromatographic response value, so 0.1% formic acid water was selected as the aqueous phase.

[0081] Example 4

[0082] Since the fish matrix is ​​complex and contains a large amount of protein, fat, etc., the present invention uses solid-phase extraction for pretreatment to eliminate interference and enhance substance response. The characteristics of solid-phase extraction (SPE) fillers significantly affect their adsorption effect on matrix interfering substances and the recovery rate of target compounds.

[0083] To evaluate the cleanup effects of different SPE columns on the target compounds during quantitative analysis, diazepam, nordiazepam, and BP-271 (2.0 μg / kg) were added to blank fish meat, and the purification performance of six commercially available SPE columns (C 18 / PSA, C 18 、EMR、C 18 / SAX, Silica / PSA and SLC columns) and the results are shown below.

[0084] Table 2 Comparison of the recovery rates of diazepam, nordiazepam and BP-271 using different solid phase extraction columns

[0085]

[0086] As shown in Table 2, except for the Silica / PSA column, the recovery rates of the target compounds of the five SPE columns ranged from 94.45% to 133.60%, and there was no significant difference in the recovery rates of the six SPE columns.

[0087] 2 ng / mL standard solutions of diazepam, nordiazepam, and BP-271 were prepared in acetonitrile to verify the adsorption of the compounds by the solid phase extraction column packing. The recoveries are shown below.

[0088] Table 3 Column recovery rates of diazepam, nordiazepam, and BP-271 using different solid phase extraction column fillers

[0089] Compound <![CDATA[C 18 / PSA(%)]]> SLC (%) EMR (%) <![CDATA[C 18 / SAX(%)]]> Diazepam 77.1 76.1 80.9 78.2 nordiazepam 84.1 82.5 79.0 81.8 BP-271 73.1 51.8 52.2 52.7

[0090] From the results in Table 3, we can see that C 18 The nonspecific adsorption of the target compound by the PSA column was weak, and the recovery rate was above 70%. 18 The / SAX column showed strong adsorption for BP-271, with a low recovery rate of 51.8-52.7%, which was speculated to be related to the charge interaction of the sulfonic acid group or the anion exchange group.

[0091] Although the recovery rates of the above SPE columns in fish matrix were not significantly different, the C 18 and PSA are often used to purify fish extracts in different proportions to detect diazepam and its metabolites, C 18It is a reverse silica gel adsorbent with strong hydrophobicity, which can effectively adsorb non-polar components; PSA filler is a weak anion exchange, which can effectively purify strong polar impurities, pigments and lipids in fish samples. In summary, based on the recovery stability and matrix purification requirements, C 18 / PSA column.

[0092] Example 5

[0093] During the quantitative analysis process, the fish matrix affects the ionization efficiency of the target compounds, resulting in inaccurate quantification. To assess the extent of the matrix effect during sample quantification, blank fish was used to establish matrix standard curves with concentrations of 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10 ng / mL (with a fixed mixed internal standard concentration of 2 ng / mL). The slope of the curve was compared with that of the pure solution to quantify the matrix effect.

[0094] The matrix effect quantification procedure was as follows: a linear equation was derived using the external standard method. The slope of the matrix standard curve was defined as k1, and the slope of the pure solvent standard curve was defined as k2. ME (%) was calculated using the formula: k1 / k2 × 100%. Accuracy and precision were assessed using six replicates at three spiking levels and expressed as mean recovery and relative standard deviation (RSD). The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were defined as the concentration at which the signal-to-noise ratio (S / N) of the spiked sample was greater than 3 or 10, respectively.

[0095] Matrix effects were calculated using the above formula. The results showed that the ME values ​​for diazepam, nordiazepam, and BP-271 in fish meat were 94.7%, 98.0%, and 91.6%, respectively. These three compounds exhibited matrix inhibition, but the matrix effect was not significant within the 80% to 120% range. The use of matrix standards in conjunction with internal standard quantification can reduce matrix effects. Linear regression was performed based on the ratio of the peak area of ​​the target compound to the corresponding internal standard peak area. Correlation coefficients (r) for all three compounds were not less than 0.999 within the range of 0.2 to 10.0 ng / mL. The results are shown in Table 4. Considering that diazepam should not be detected in aquatic products, three concentration levels of 0.2 μg / kg, 0.5 μg / kg, and 5.0 μg / kg were selected within the linear range for spike recovery experiments (n=6). The average spike recovery rates ranged from 100.2% to 119.9%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) ranging from 1.7% to 9.5%. The specific results are shown in Table 5. After testing fish samples spiked with 0.2 μg / kg, the signal-to-noise ratios (S / N) for the three compounds were all greater than 10. Therefore, the limits of detection for the three compounds of the present invention were determined to be 0.2 μg / kg, and the limits of quantification were determined to be 0.6 μg / kg.
