Description

A method of automatically correcting mass spectrum isotope distribution curve
Technical field
The invention belongs to the MS technical fields of complex system analysis, and in particular, to one kind automatically corrects isotope distribution The method of curve.
Background technique
Isotope is one of two or more atoms with the same chemical element of same atoms ordinal number, and such as: hydrogen has three Kind isotope, H protium, D deuterium, isotope that there are many carbon,12C、13C and14C etc. shows various isotope distribution.They Chemical property it is essentially identical, but mass number is different, thus its MS behavior difference.In order to successfully explain MS, quilt is obtained The element of test molecule ion or fragment ion composition, i.e. molecular formula, need its quality of precision measurement and isotope abundance.MS instrument The initial data of generation is isotopic curves mode, but is intuitive and saving storage, is also presented as the rodlike mode of isotope.Molecule Amount is that each peak axis (or m/z mass number) is calculated by isotope distribution.
Currently, LC or GC-MS combination instrument is widely used in analyzing the complicated analysis system such as Chinese medicine, petroleum, biological sample In compound, due to not accommodating the standard MS of all compounds in business NIST spectrum library, so in the presence of cannot largely distribute Chromatographic peak and correlation MS data.In order to identify unknown compound, obtaining its element composition (molecular formula) is precondition.Mesh Before, have ' seven Golden Rules ' possible candidate molecules formula quantity is reduced using exact mass and isotope abundance.Thus, In experiment test, need MS instrument that there is accuracy appropriate and precision.Currently, ultrahigh resolution MS instrument can satisfy " standard The requirement of really measurement ", such as FT-ICR and Orbitrap MS instrument.Since ultrahigh resolution MS instrument is expensive, overwhelming majority experiment Room such ultrahigh resolution difficult to realize, superior quality accuracy and high sensitivity.Therefore, it is necessary to some resolutions low/high The data of rate MS instrument carry out recalibration, calculate the element of unknown compound and its fragment ion composition accurately.
Although scientific instrument have achieved huge advance, between the measured value and true value of resolution ratio MS instrument low/high There are larger or certain deviations, it is sufficient to element composition identification be made to generate mistake.Usually, quality in triple quadrupole bar MS data Test value accuracy and precision are lower, and isotope abundance is relatively stable;The higher qTOF MS detection of mass accuracy Device, isotope measure are unstable.Even for the mass value of Orbitrap MS instrument measurement, systematic error is also non-linear deposits , and mass change is related to peak strength.The existing internal calibrations in laboratory, external calibration method at present, can be in certain journey Improve these errors on degree, but still remains some problems.Internal calibrations method needs to be added several reagents, the group of external calibration method Between difference it is big, and the two calibration result is not perfect.Wang Yongdong proposes wave spectrum accuracy concept, and develops MassWorks software uses PFTBA fragment ion initial data and gross data first, obtains MS peak-shaped function;It again will filtering Function and the isotope distribution curve for applying to ion to be corrected.However, obtaining filter function is to utilize Fourier's convolution and anti- Convolution will inevitably introduce error, impact to result.He etc. first by target isotope peak Gauss curve fitting, calculates peak Axis, then internal calibrations, but early period, Gauss curve fitting data inevitably introduced human factor.For this purpose, we have developed AAID-IC Algorithm first corrects peak axis, isotope abundance, then corrected value is converted to perfect isotope distribution song by a Gauss box Line reduces above-mentioned human error.In complicated analysis system, AAID-IC algorithm be can choose certifiedization in sample Object is closed as natural internal standard, and is added without exogenous internal standard.In addition, we will feel to avoid unnecessary multiplicating from testing The MS data of different sampled points make full use of in interest spectral range, and uniform, and reduce accidental error, improve indirectly Calibration result.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is breaking through resolution MS instrument bottleneck low/high, one kind is provided and automatically corrects isotope distribution curve Method.By means of the invention it is possible to effectively improve the accuracy of isotopic peak axis (m/z mass) value and isotope abundance.
The present invention is the method for automatically correcting isotope distribution curve, is not only suitble to curve model MS data, but also be suitble to rodlike Mode MS data;Not only it is suitble to high-resolution MS data, but also is suitble to low resolution triple quadrupole bar MS data.It relates generally to peak axis (m/z Quality) two factors of value and isotope abundance optimization.
The method for automatically correcting resolution ratio MS data low/high of the invention is as follows:
(1) data conversion: the initial data of Shimadzu instrument is converted to TXT file, convertible after deleting format text CDF file is converted to for Matlab file or initial data, is converted to Matlab file;Proteowizard software package is installed (proteowizard.sourceforge.net), using MSConvert option, can by Waters or Thermo Fisher or The initial data of Agilent or AB Sciex or Bruker instrument is converted to the formatted files such as mzXML.
(2) blob detection of chromatography dimension:
In LC or GC-MS two-dimensional matrix, longitudinal is that chromatography is tieed up, the chromatography eluant sequence of representative component group;It is laterally MS Dimension represents the MS data of each chromatography sampled point acquisition.When acquisition mode is set as Raw or Profile, in MS molecule from Son or fragment ion data are curve form, and data volume obviously increases.
In total ion figure of a traditional Chinese medicine complex system, natural internal standard or target chromatographic peak detecting step are as follows: summit Be in one section of chromatographic signal local maximum (as long as data point ai it meet: ai-1<ai and ai>ai+1, ai are just office Portion's maximum value, wherein ai-1 and ai+1 respectively represents the data point of i-1 column and i+1 column);The estimation of peak width is in the chromatographic peak Search the local minimum nearest from the ai (unity of thinking as found local maximum, as long as a data point ai-1 in both ends It meets: ai-1<ai and ai-2>ai-1, ai-1 are just local minimum, and wherein ai-2 represents the data point of i-2 column), thus The inflow point and elution point of this chromatographic peak are obtained, chromatography peak detection is finally completed.
(3) the overlapping isotope cluster pretreatment of MS dimension: triple quadrupole bar MS data belong to high-resolution data, its same position Plain peak ([M], [M+1], [M+2]) is inevitably present overlapping phenomenon, will affect next peak axis value and calculates.In Fig. 1 a GC-MS data, adjacent fragment ion peak [M-1] can also interfere with the peak [M].Therefore, one section of MS number is being intercepted by baseline of minimum value According to rear, need to pre-process overlapping isotope cluster.Within a test period of an instrument, the half peak height of isotopic peak The wide ratio with peak width should be fixed value, unrelated with instrumental resolution.In this simple overlapping isotope cluster removing program, It is measured by the peak width at half height of Fig. 1 b, the available substantially peak width position on baseline;It connects superimposed curves crosspoint and flows into (out) point;Meanwhile considering that the peak M-1 and the peak M+1 to the cross influence at the peak M, are deducted on primitive curve basis, can be obtained The peak M of removing.
The data higher for resolution ratio, such as Radix Glycyrrhizae LC-MS data, directly the interception peak M.
(4) each sampled point isotopic peak axis calculating and error correction function: systematic error and random error coexist in reality In MS data, it is difficult to completely remove.For the latter, severe jamming is analyzed signal and mass value is caused to fall in actual measurement quality by noise The two sides of mean value.Before establishing internal calibration function, the 2-D data start-stop point of one section of proper strength is selected, it is automatic to obtain often The curve model MS data of one sampled point, and the isotopic peak axis of object ion is calculated, take mean value;Herein, GC-MS, LC-MS and LC-qTOF-MS intercepts mass spectrometric data section respectively with 5amu, 5amu of monoisotopic peak axis and 10~12amu range. For removing or the direct monoisotopic peak that intercepts, axis value is by formula (1) calculating:
Wherein, y0It is the column vector comprising curve mass spectrometric data, T represents transposition, m0Correspond to the matter of measurement isotope cluster The column vector of axis is measured, l is length and m0With y0The same unit column vector, mcIt is the central value being calculated.
For the mass data that the high-resolution MS instrument such as LC-qTOF-MS generates, curvilinear mold can be obtained through the above way The quality axis of monoisotopic peak or other isotopic peaks under formula.It, can be rodlike with full scan in order to reduce operation memory and time Mode data directly reads single isotopic mass or other isotopic masses (the maximum experiment m/z value of response).
After calculating or reading (natural) interior target isotopic peak axis or m/z value, each sampled point is uniformed, instrument error school Positive function (2):
M=f (mc)
M is Theoretical Mass, mcIt is axis value (curve model) or the mistake for testing m/z value (rodlike mode) and corresponding theory value Difference, the two obtain functional relation by least square polynomial fit.In next correction course, it can be established from this Functional relation obtain test m/z value corresponding error amount.
(5) in AAID-IC algorithm, isotopic peak [M+1] or [M the isotope abundance optimization of each sampled point MS dimension: are read + 2] or [M+3] abundance local maximum, a series of local maximums of different sampled points are uniformed, by formula (3) and theory It is worth fit linear relationship:
X=f (xc)
X is theoretical isotope abundance, xcIt is the isotope abundance local maximum after homogenization.It was corrected next Cheng Zhong can obtain the isotope abundance after correction from this established functional relation.
(6) a Gauss box is constructed to the corrected value that (4) and (5) obtain, can be obtained isotope distribution calibration curve. Basic Gaussian function formula (4) is as follows:
Parameter A, xc and S are respectively the peak value, peak position and half width information of Gaussian curve in formula, and ans is final obtains The Gaussian curve arrived, S control the FWHM of Gaussian curve.Based on (4) formula, a Gauss box can be constructed.From (3) and (4) value obtained in is calculated by Gauss box, it will be able to be obtained one and is similar to theoretical isotope distribution curve.To, Us can be made more intuitively to compare isotope distribution calibration curve and theoretical curve.
Compared to the prior art, AAID-IC provided by the invention has the advantages that
1, with true radix bupleuri essential oil GC-MS data, licorice LC-MS data instance, AAID-IC can preferably drop The systematic error and accidental error of object ion isotope distribution curve under harmonic curve mode.
2, the drawbacks such as memory is big are accounted for reduce high-resolution MS mass data, AAID-IC reads MS under rodlike mode, obtains mesh The maximum m/z value at ion isotopes peak is marked, isotope abundance is calculated, carries out correction, and further with the true of bupleurum total saponin Real LC-qTOF-MS data verification this method, accuracy are all improved.
The AAID-IC algorithm invented herein can correct curve/rodlike mode data of different MS instruments, have reliable, real With with widespread popularity.

1 perfluorotributylamine GC-MS instrument measurement result of embodiment and AAID-IC are corrected
The GC Elevated Temperature Conditions of PFTBA are as follows: 40 DEG C of holding 6min, with 3 DEG C of min-1Rise to 70 DEG C.Mass spectrograph is in electron bombardment It works under mode, scanning range is 33~550amu, ionization energy 70eV.Level four bars, preceding injection port, ion source and Aux-z temperature Degree is kept at 150 DEG C, 280 DEG C, 230 DEG C and 280 DEG C.In chromatography dimension, mass spectrogram such as Fig. 2 of a certain sampled point of PFTBA (a) and shown in Fig. 2 (b), wherein shadow region is area-of-interest.The actual measurement mean value of each fragment ion of PFTBA, accuracy can only Reach 1amu, mass shift is both greater than 60mDa, and this data are difficult to the element composition of unknown ion.Researcher selects The fragment ion peak that m/z is 69,100,119,169,219 and 264 calculates peak axis, homogenization and instrument error correction function.From Fig. 3 (a) illustrates that the correction function relationship is good, it is emerging can to feed back to sense it can be concluded that error amount and m/z size presentation arcuation trend The ion to be corrected of interest.In addition, also there is biggish errors in measured data for isotope abundance value.Fig. 3 (b) is PFTBA In multiple actual measurement isotope abundances and theoretical abundance linear functional relations.
Object ion test value can be preferably corrected with AAID-IC method.Fig. 3 (c) black dotted lines are that m/z is 131Da Primary isotope cluster, which does not have known definable peak shape, and peak axis value error is larger.Use above-mentioned correction function Afterwards, axis value in peak differs only -1.6mDa with theoretical value, and isotope (M+1) abundance is 3.2622, differs with theoretical value and is only 0.0192.As shown in Fig. 3 (c), the correction isotopic peak cluster (black) and theoretical curve (ash) difference obtained by Gauss box is non- It is often small, the reliability and accuracy of AAID-IC method is intuitively illustrated.To sum up, AAID-IC algorithm can greatly improve three The mass accuracy for the low-resolution data that weight level four bars mass spectrum obtains under curve model.But from each fragment ion mean value Standard deviation finds out that the intensity at peak is lower, more the influence vulnerable to baseline and noise.Therefore, ion signal intensity interested is improved It is most important to calibration result.
Embodiment 2 is corrected based on the bupleurum Chinense volatile oil GC-MS data AAID-IC of natural internal standard compound
Bupleurum Chinense volatile oil: radix bupleuri is carried out steam extraction 4h, obtained by the extracting method described according to Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010 editions To volatile oil be sealed in brown vial, and analyze immediately.
GC-MS analysis: the triple level four bars MS instrument (Agilent, the U.S.) of 6890 GC instrument -5973;Chromatographic column is HP-5MS (30m × 0.25mm i.d., film thickness 0.25m, Agilent);Temperature programming: 1) 40 DEG C holding 6min, with 3 DEG C of min-1It rises to 90 DEG C, then with 1 DEG C of min-1Rate rise to 140 DEG C, finally rise to 280 DEG C with 10 DEG C of min-1, keep 3min;MS instrument It works under electron-impact mode, scanning range is 33~550amu, ionization energy 70eV.Level four bars, preceding injection port, ion source 150 DEG C, 280 DEG C, 230 DEG C and 280 DEG C are kept at Aux-z temperature.The separation sample introduction of radix bupleuri be 1 μ L, segregation ratio 1: 5, it is analyzed respectively under full scan and original scan mode.
AAID-IC algorithm parameter:
1, the original CDF formatted file that the triple level four bars MS instrument of 6890 GC instrument of input -5973 obtain.Such as: dd=' HE4.CDF';
2, the time range for the chromatographic peak that input needs to intercept.Such as: ' xt=1.97;Yt=2.05 ';
3, input needs the mass charge ratio range intercepted.Such as: ' xx=129;Yy=134 ';Generally 5amu
4, what is returned in test_four is the mass value after correction, and the parameter for needing to input includes: building error correction Chromatographic data the time range x_z and x_y of relationship, chromatographic time the range xt=and yt of ion to be corrected, the matter for needing to intercept Lotus is than range xx and yy, CDF file dd=' HE4.CDF '.
5, what test_tws was returned is the isotope abundance after correction, and the parameter for needing to input includes: ion to be corrected Chromatographic time range xt=and yt, the mass charge ratio range xx and yy for needing to intercept, CDF file dd=' HE4.CDF '.
As shown in figure 4, the total ion figure of the GC-MS of Bupleurum Chinese volatile oil implies traditional medicine volatile oil complicated component.According to mass spectrum The mass spectrometric data of similarity and retention index, most chromatographic peaks can be annotated accurately.But NIST database missing is very The control mass spectrum of more plant metabolites, similarity search can not be matched to " true " compound.Therefore, uncommon plant metabolism The molecular ion and fragment ion of object become the important evidence of authenticating compound.AAID-IC method can preferably correct isotope Cluster, the exact mass and isotope abundance of acquisition are most important to the element composition confirmation of molecular ion or fragment ion.
In AAID-IC program, construct suitable error correction function and be important a step, need a certain range m/z and Sufficient amount of internal standard data.However, internal standard is not easy to obtain, and it is easy to interfere tested data.Body is analyzed in middle prodrug complex In system, largely can certified compound may be used as natural internal standard, instrument error correction function has very useful meaning Justice.Such as Fig. 1 a, select Undecan in bupleurum Chinense volatile oil GC-MS data fragment ion m/z 43,57,71,85,99,113, 156, it is used for instrument error correction function.By enlarged drawing as can be seen that m/z be 71m Da the peak fragment [M] not only by The influence at the peak [M+1], the also interference by the peak [M-1], this is for calculating monoisotopic peak axis value using formula (1), it will produces Raw greatly interference.Therefore, the overlapping isotope cluster processing method mentioned using (2) is removed, and effect is preferable.As shown in table 1, The original quality error of each fragment ion is all larger than 90mDa, and the fluctuation of isotope abundance is also very big.Fig. 5 a and Fig. 5 b distinguish table Show the quality error correction function relationship and isotope abundance functional relation of some ions in bupleurum Chinense volatile oil GC-MS data.From It can find out in Fig. 5 a, between m/z 43-160, error amount shows the downward trend similar with PFTBA fragment ion.But The correction function of PFTBA is not suitable for bupleurum Chinense volatile oil GC-MS data, can only use internal calibrations method.In Fig. 5 b, radix bupleuri is waved There is also notable differences for the ion isotopes abundance of different chromatography sampled points in hair oil GC-MS data, are corrected by AAID-IC, More accurately isotope abundance can be obtained.
Then Furan, 2-pentyl and 2,4-Decadienal are used, the molecular ion peak of (E, E)-is for verifying AAID- The reliability of IC algorithm.Furan, 2-pentyl-, Theoretical molecular quality are 138.0898, and theoretical isotope abundance is 9.93; 2,4-Decadienal, (E, E)-, Theoretical molecular quality is 152.1201, and theoretical isotope abundance is 11.04.In Fig. 6 a and In Fig. 6 b, the original isotope distribution cluster of two kinds of ions receives the interference of noise, and not only Mass accuracy is low, and peak shape Distortion.And pass through the ion isotopes cluster after the correction of ASA-IC algorithm, obtain preferable correction.Table 2 is two in radix bupleuri Quality error after fragment ion mass spectrometric data is corrected, obtained result is within the scope of 14mDa;Obtained isotope abundance Very little is also differed with theoretical isotope.This illustrates the dependable with function of this algorithm.
