摘要: Abstract Fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) were analysed by reversed-phase HPLC coupled with atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI) mass spectrometry. The chromatographic separations of the FAMEs optimised using acetonitrile or binary gradients and C18 C30 columns. gas-phase reactions unsaturated in APCI source provided [M+C 3 H 5 N] + adducts. When fragmented, these adducts yielded diagnostic ions, allowing unambiguous localisation double bonds. formation fragmentation acetonitrile-related adduct was utilised for structural characterisation separated HPLC. APCI-MS detection encompassed a full-spectrum scan (providing information on number carbons bonds) data-dependent MS/MS ions (the position bonds). utility this approach demonstrated mixture from blackcurrant-seed oil. All fatty acids known to exist sample correctly identified several others newly discovered. In terms sensitivity, HPLC/APCI-MS appeared be comparable GC/EI-MS.
