Simultaneous quantification of twenty Amadori products in soy sauce using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
2017
Abstract A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method using a pentafluorophenylpropyl-bonded silica column was developed to simultaneously quantify twenty Amadori products (APs), including N -(1-Deoxy- d -fructosyl-1-yl)- l -isoleucine (Fru-Ile) and N -(1-Deoxy- d -fructosyl-1-yl)- l -leucine (Fru-Leu), in soy sauce, without the need for an ion-pairing reagent or sample derivatization. The method was applied to six types of soy sauce, to determine the total AP levels and the levels of individual APs. The level of total APs widely varied between the eight samples, from 358 mg/L to 24347 mg/L. The concentrations of N -e-(1-deoxy- d -fructosyl-1-yl)- l -lysine (Fru-Lys) and N -(1-deoxy- d -fructosyl-1-yl)- l -pyroglutamic acid (Fru-pGlu) were the highest among the APs and the level of Fru-pGlu was similar to that of Fru-Lys. Furthermore, fermentation periods of up to six months greatly influenced AP levels in soy sauce but the levels remained constant thereafter. Thermal treatment of soy sauce had little effect on AP levels.
