The invention provides a UPLC-MS / MS detecting method for detecting concentration of parabens preservatives in human
urine. The method includes the steps of firstly,
processing samples, to be more specific, placing a to-be-detected
urine sample into a
test tube or a centrifugal tube, adding water with the volume being 1 / 10 times of the volume of the
urine sample, adding beta-
glucuronidase, shaking up and sealing, heating in water bath of 37 DEG C until complete reaction is achieved, taking a certain amount of reaction liquid, adding precipitator (
methanol /
acetonitrile=1:1) with the quantity being 3 times of the quantity of the reaction liquid to precipitate
protein, well mixing in a vortex manner, centrifuging at 15000rpm for 10 minutes, and taking 5-10 microliters of supernate for sample analysis; secondly, injecting the sample, and performing the UPLC-MS / MS detection according to certain conditions; thirdly, calculating the concentration of the parabens preservatives in the human urine according to the
peak area of the sample and the regression equations of standard curves. The UPLC-MS / MS detecting method has the advantages that the method is simple and fast, high in sensitivity, high in
interference resistance and suitable for the simultaneous qualitative and quantitative detection of the preservatives in the urine, and food with excessive preservatives can be detected in the urine through
metabolism.
