RESUMEN
Objective @#To develop an analytical method of ibotenic acid (IBA) and muscimol (MUS) in wild mushroom by dansyl chloride (DNSCl) derivatization-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and to provide technical support for etiological identification of mushroom poisoning events.@*Methods @#The sample was extracted with hydrochloric acid solution, derived by bimolecular DNSCl, diluted and inorganic salts precipitated with acetonitrile. The extract was separated by a waters XBridgeTM BEH C18 column and measured by LC-MS/MS.@*Results @#The limits of detection for IBA and MUS in wild mushroom were 0.15 mg/kg and 0.1 mg/kg, respectively. Good linear relationship was obtained for IBA and MUS at the range of 0.5-250 mg/kg with the correlation coefficient of 0.997 and 0.999, respectively. The average recoveries at three spiking levels were 84.5%-102.0% with relative standard deviations (RSDs, n=6) of 4.7%-8.6% for IBA. The average recoveries were 88.6%-95.4% with RSDs (n=6) of 4.9%-7.5% for MUS. @*Conclusion @#The optimized sample extraction and bimolecular DNSCl derivatization conditions can achieve rapid and accurate analysis of IBA and MUS in wild mushroom poisoning sample.
