Description

Method for determining anthraquinone components by combining salting-out auxiliary liquid-liquid extraction and capillary electrophoresis on-line enrichment method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for measuring anthraquinone components in cassia seed tea or biological samples by using a capillary electrophoresis method based on a pre-concentration strategy combining salting-out auxiliary liquid-liquid extraction and an online enrichment method.
Background
The cassia seed tea is a tea prepared from stir-fried cassia seeds, and is used as a healthy drink, and has the effects of protecting liver, protecting eyes, losing weight and the like. This makes it popular in china, korea and japan. A plurality of researches show that the biological active ingredients of the semen cassiae mainly comprise anthraquinone compounds (AQs) such as chrysophanol, emodin, aurantium obtusin and the like, and the semen cassiae tea has the effects of reducing blood fat, protecting nerves, protecting liver, resisting bacteria, resisting mutation and the like, so the semen cassiae tea is widely applied to the health industry. In order to ensure safe use thereof, researchers have increased attention to quality evaluation of cassia tea. Among many quantitative analysis methods of AQs (TLC, HPLC, CE, etc.), HPLC is still the most commonly used method. However, in HPLC, the solvent consumption is large and the resource waste is serious due to the long retention time of some AQs. The Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) has the advantages of high resolution, short analysis time, low solvent consumption and the like, can make up the defects of the high performance liquid chromatography, and has been used for AQs quantitative analysis. However, in the conventional literature, there is a problem that the sensitivity is low when AQs in plants or Chinese medicines is detected by capillary electrophoresis. This is due to the small sample volume of capillary electrophoresis itself and the short optical path of the mounted ultraviolet detector. Thus, pre-concentration of analytes to increase sensitivity of CE using an on-line enrichment strategy is of interest to researchers. Many on-line enrichment techniques, such as field amplified sample stacking (FASI), electro-pressurizing (EKS), micelle-to-solvent stacking (MSS), cation selective exhaustive injection (CESI), anion selective exhaustive injection (AESI) have been proposed for sensitive determination of trace analytes. However, most of them, such as FASI, EKS, CESI and AESI, rely on electric injection (EKI), and are more suitable for enrichment of charged analytes. In contrast, weakly ionized analytes (e.g., AQs) are difficult to effectively increase sensitivity by these methods when analyzed by capillary electrophoresis.
The methods reported so far for enriching weakly ionized substances in CE analysis mainly include electroosmotic flow pump bulk stacking (LVSEP) and dynamic pH ligation (DYNAMIC PH junction, dypH). Literature reports LVSEP that when trans-3, 4-dichloro-cinnamic acid, 2-aminobenzoic acid, tryptophan, etc. are analyzed, separation can be performed within 8min and the Sensitivity Enhancing Factor (SEF) reaches 170 times. However, in this enrichment method, in order to obtain a stable enrichment effect, the capillary column must be modified by a dynamic coating method or the like. DypH is another enrichment method for analysis of weakly acidic substances, which has been reported in the literature to be applied to the enrichment of epinephrine and weakly acidic compounds, but the improvement in sensitivity is not significant.
In recent years, the combination of various enrichment methods, such as two-step enrichment (FASI-sweeping) and three-step enrichment (FASI-sweeping-MSS), plays a crucial role in increasing the sensitivity of CE. Rageh a new three-step enrichment method is developed, dypH, large-volume sample superposition (LVSS) and sweep (sweeping) are combined, and the nucleotide is quantitatively analyzed by an ultraviolet detector, so that the effect equivalent to the sensitivity of MS detection is achieved, namely LOD is as low as 10ng/mL. This demonstrates the great potential this strategy has in enriching zwitterionic compounds. Meanwhile, a new idea is provided for on-line enrichment of weak acid and weak alkaline substances in CE. In this method, the complexing of borax with the ortho-dihydroxyl groups is used to sweep large volumes of nucleotides into a relatively narrow band of borax. Therefore, the method is suitable for compounds containing an ortho-dihydroxyl structure, and has a limited application range. The method developed by the invention is used for enriching emodin, chrysophanol and aurantium obtusin, and the three compounds have no structure of ortho-dihydroxyl, so that other pseudo stationary phases such as surfactant, cyclodextrin and the like are required to be added into a background buffer solution. Cyclodextrin has been successfully used in chromatographic and electrophoretic methods because of its chiral recognition. The application range of the analyte can be greatly expanded (namely, compared with the literature, the application range of the invention is greatly increased by not only being limited to the compound with the specific ortho-dihydroxyl) by innovatively taking the hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin as the pseudo stationary phase scavenger.
The presence of the trace AQs in a complex matrix (e.g., cassia tea or biological sample) is a significant challenge for its effective analysis. Thus, in order to exclude interference of other substances with the analyte, the sample pretreatment technique plays an important role in purifying the sample and enriching the target analyte. Salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) is one of the homogeneous liquid-liquid extractions, i.e. the use of salt in a homogeneous mixture to induce phase separation, followed by extraction of the target analyte into the organic layer. In literature reports, it has been implemented in conjunction with capillary on-line enrichment techniques and is widely used for pretreatment of trace analytes in various sample matrices (e.g., water, food, biological samples, etc.). And SALLE, when combined with capillary single step enrichment such as field amplified stacking (FASS)/LVSS, the sensitivity is only improved by 61-265 times. Thus, combining the proposed on-line three-step enrichment with SALLE may further increase the sensitivity of the analysis of the liquid sample.

The mechanism of the dynamic pH connection-sweeping-LVSS technology in the method of the invention is as follows: the capillary is first filled with a high conductivity background buffer followed by pressure injection of a large section of sample solution. After injection of the sample solution, a positive voltage is applied across the CE column, at which stage the hydroxide ions in the background buffer move towards the positive electrode, and the pH in front of the sample solution suddenly increases, causing the analyte to ionize and move towards the positive electrode. The migration rate of the analyte is suddenly slowed down and enriched at the boundary when an acidic sample matrix is encountered. Meanwhile, the hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin in the background buffer solution moves towards the negative electrode to sweep the sample area under the influence of electroosmotic flow, so that the analyte is further enriched. The enriched sample zone migrates towards the detector under the action of electroosmotic flow, encounters a background buffer solution of high conductivity, suddenly slows down the migration velocity, and is enriched again. Finally, the separation is completed in CZE mode.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:

Condition optimization of example 2 SALLE
(1) Optimization of the species of salting-out agent
A suitable SALLE condition not only requires that as much analyte as possible be transferred from the aqueous phase to the organic phase, but also that the degree of mixing of the organic phase with the aqueous phase be as low as possible. Therefore, extraction efficiency (E) and phase ratio (r) are introduced as indexes, and the optimal conditions of SALLE are studied. E and r represent the ratio of the mass of the analyte in the organic phase to the initial total mass of the analyte and the ratio of the organic phase to the aqueous phase, respectively.
In order to optimize the salt type, the present invention examined the usual salting-out agents (sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride and potassium chloride). Experimental salt solutions presented different r and E in SALLE, these salts can be easily classified into three classes (r >1, r=1, r <1, respectively) according to the r value. It is not difficult to find that sulfate extraction efficiency is far better than chloride and other salts, probably because the ability of anions to precipitate hydrophilic species is reduced in the order SO4 2->CH3COO->Cl->NO3 ->Br->I->CNS-. The optimal salt type and salt concentration were then selected by comparing the effect of three different concentrations of salt (1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 mol/L) on r and E. Notably, low concentrations of KCl (1.0, 1.5 mol/L) do not allow separation of the two phases. The effect of magnesium sulfate and ammonium sulfate on E is similar, but ammonium sulfate exhibits a larger r-value, which is detrimental to concentrating the sample solution. Therefore, a 2mol/L ammonium sulfate solution is preferable as the final salting-out solution.
(2) Optimization of salting-out agent volume
The volume of the organic solvent was fixed at 0.5mL, and the ratio of salt solution to organic solvent was optimized at 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, and 1:5. Wherein, when the ratio of the salt solution to the organic solvent is 2:1, the two-phase separation cannot be achieved. When the ratio is 1:1, the extraction efficiency is optimal. This is due to insufficient salt-induced separation when the salt volume is low or the organic phase volume is high. Therefore, a ratio of the salt solution (2 mol/L ammonium sulfate solution) to the organic solution of 1:1 is preferred.
(3) Optimization of vortex time
In SALLE, the vortexes result in rapid and efficient transfer of analytes due to the large surface contact between the aqueous and organic phases. Thus, the extraction efficiency was tested over a vortex time of 0 to 100 s. As the vortex time increases from 0s to 30s, the peak area of all three analytes increases. This is probably due to the very fast initial mass transfer, and then the equilibrium state is reached around 30s. After 30s, longer vortex times resulted in reduced analyte extraction, probably due to higher miscibility of the two phases at longer contact times. Preferably the vortex time is 30s.
Example 3 optimization of enrichment Process
(1) Concentration of sodium tetraborate in background buffer
Background buffer is one of the most important parameters in capillary electrophoresis that affect target analyte sensitivity and separation efficiency. Since the analyte is acidic, the boric acid system was chosen as the background buffer system for subsequent experiments. The concentration of buffer salt directly affects the conductivity of BGS, and thus the enrichment effect. The concentration of sodium tetraborate in BGS is optimized (15-30 mmol/L). As the concentration of sodium tetraborate increases, the peak area of the target analyte increases. And when the concentration of sodium tetraborate reaches 30mmol/L, the resolution is significantly reduced. This is probably due to the joule heating effect caused by the higher conductivity of sodium tetraborate at higher concentrations and large operating currents. The concentration of sodium tetraborate is preferably 25mmol/L in view of resolution and peak shape.
(2) Concentration of HP-beta-CD and methanol content in background buffer
The role of HP-beta-CD addition to BGS is mainly to form a pseudo stationary phase in the column. When a voltage is applied to the capillary column, the HP-beta-CD sweeps across the sample region, enriching the sample zone. Thus, the concentration of HP-beta-CD in BGS directly affects sweeping performance. In the present invention, several concentrations of HP-beta-CD (15-50 mmol/L) were evaluated. As the HP-beta-CD concentration increases, the peak area gradually increases and gradually decreases beyond 35 mmol/L. This may be due to the fact that when the HP-beta-CD concentration is too high, the affinity between the analyte and HP-beta-CD is too strong to release the analyte. Therefore, preferably 35mmol/L HP-beta-CD is added as a scavenger to the BGS.
Methanol is typically added to BGS to increase the resolution of the analyte. Therefore, the invention examines the influence of methanol content (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) (mL: mL) in BGS on separation effect. When the methanol content is increased from 0% to 15%, the resolution is gradually increased, and when the methanol content exceeds 15%, the resolution is gradually decreased. The migration time increases with increasing methanol content. Therefore, 15% methanol is preferable as the addition amount of methanol in BGS.
(3) Sample matrix pH
In DypH, the pH of the BGS and sample matrices need to be different. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the pH of the sample matrix. When the pH is too low (pH < 3.7), the enrichment of chrysophanol is poor, probably due to the fact that when the pH of the sample matrix is below 3.7, the final capillary column conditions are not suitable for enrichment of analytes such as chrysophanol, resulting in a reduced peak area. However, when the pH is higher (pH > 5.7), the resolution drops significantly and the enrichment is poor. In order to ensure a stable enrichment effect, it is finally preferred to carry out subsequent experiments on a sample matrix with a pH of 4.1.
(4) Sample injection time
Increasing the injection time can significantly increase the sensitivity of capillary electrophoresis. The influence of the sample injection time on the sensitivity was examined with sample injection times of 100s, 150s, 200s, 250s, 300s and 400 s. It is not difficult to find that as the injection time increases, the peak area increases significantly and the resolution decreases. In order to ensure good resolution and peak shape, a 300s sample injection time is preferred.
Example 4 comparison of three-step enrichment with one-step and two-step enrichment
The sensitivity of DypH-sweeping-LVSS was compared with those of DypH and DypH-LVSS. In DypH, enrichment was not ideal due to the limitation of the injection time, and peak broadening of chrysophanol was severe. Peak shape disruption was more severe, although the fold enrichment of DypH-LVSS was increased compared to DypH. In DypH-sweeping-LVSS, the analyte was concentrated in a narrower band, indicating that binding sweeping can improve peak shape to a large extent.
Example 5 comparison of the three-step enrichment method with other reported methods
DypH-sweeping-LVSS-CE-UV was compared with the methods in the literature reported (CE-DAD; NACE-DAD; CE-AD; CE-UV). Compared with other methods, the DypH-sweeping-LVSS-CE-UV strategy provided by the invention can obviously improve the sensitivity of capillary electrophoresis analysis AQs.

Example 6 establishment of a Standard Curve, linear Range of method, detection Limit, reproducibility and enrichment factors
And respectively taking a proper amount of 1mg/mL standard solution, accurately preparing a mixed standard solution of chrysophanol, emodin and aurantium obtusin with the concentration range of 100-3000ng/mL, carrying out electrophoresis analysis based on a three-step enrichment method under the optimized detection condition, carrying out parallel measurement for three times to obtain a capillary electrophoresis spectrogram of the mixed standard solution, and respectively drawing standard curves of chrysophanol, emodin and aurantium obtusin by taking the peak area of each standard in the obtained spectrogram as an ordinate and the concentration of the standard in the mixed standard solution as an abscissa to complete the construction of the standard curves. The results are shown in Table 1, where all three anthraquinone analytes exhibit good linearity and a correlation coefficient (R 2) between 0.993 and 0.998. The 1 mug/mL mixed standard solution is continuously injected for 6 times in one day to evaluate the daily precision, 3 times in 3 days to evaluate the daily precision, and finally, the Relative Standard Deviation (RSD) of the area of the obtained peak is calculated to be lower than 4.80 percent, which indicates that the reproducibility of the method is better.
Table 2 Linear Range, detection Limit, reproducibility and enrichment factors of the method
Enrichment factor= (peak area of the sample to be measured/peak area of the sample to be measured in conventional manner) x dilution factor.
The conventional sample injection conditions are as follows: the background buffer contained 25mmol/L sodium tetraborate, 35mmol/L HP-beta-CD and 15% methanol (pH adjusted using NaOH solution=9.3), and 100. Mu.g/mL of a mixed standard solution of chrysophanol, emodin and aurantium was injected at 50mbar for 3s. The optimized on-line enrichment strategy is calculated to ensure that the enrichment times of chrysophanol, emodin and aurantium obtusin can reach up to 468 times, thereby effectively improving the detection sensitivity of capillary electrophoresis to anthraquinone compounds in biological matrixes.
