ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the determination of donkey-hide gelatin in Lüjiao buxue granules. METH-ODS:Trypsin was used for enzymatic hydrolysis of donkey-hide gelatin. UPLC-QQQ/MS was adopted for the determination of don-key-hide gelatin in the preparation:Hypersil GOLD C18 column was used with mobile phase consisted of 0.1% formic acid solu-tion-acetonitrile(gradient elution)at the flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The column temperature was 30 ℃,and sample size was 5 μL. Mass chromatography condition was that ion source was electrospray ion source;ionization mode was ESI+;multiple response mon-itoring was adopted,and characteristic molecular ion peaks of donkey-hide gelatin with mass-to-charge ratio of m/z 539.8(double charge)→ 612.4 and m/z 539.8(double charge)→ 923.8 were used as detection ion pair. Spray voltage was 3100 V;sheath gas was 20 Arb;auxiliary gas was 8 Arb;ion transfer tube temperature was 350 ℃;evaporation temperature was 350 ℃;scan mode was SRM. Collision gas was high purity argon. RESULTS:The sample size of donkey-hide gelatin ranged 20.24-2024 μg/mL(r=0.9978). The detection limit was 1%. RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 6.0%. The charac-teristic molecular ion peaks of donkey-hide gelatin could be detected in 27 batches of samples. CONCLUSIONS:The method is spe-cific and can be used for the determination of donkey-hide gelatin in Lüjiao buxue granules.

ABSTRACT
A fast atom bombardment mass spectrometric method to predict and detect the antioxidant ability of phenolic compounds was developed to accelerate the pace of finding the antioxidant with higher effect and low toxicity. The effect of experimental conditions on the relative peak intensity ratio of M+· ion to [ M+H]+ion in the FAB mass spectra of the compound was investigated, including matrix, scan time and concentration. The correlation of antioxidant activity with the I ( M+· )/I ( [ M+H ]+) value of flavonoids obtained in FAB mass spectra was studied. Then the antioxidant activity of 12 phenolic compounds was predicted using the above method and the results were compared with those obtained from thiobarbituric acid ( TBA) method. The results show that the I( M+· )/I( [ M+H]+) value of the phenolic compound obtained from FAB mass spectra could reflect their antioxidant activity, which could help to accelerate the development of the antioxidant drug.
