description This paper presents an application of high performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS) for the analysis of 27 &#946;-blockers and metabolites in milk powder. Homogenized milk power samples were extracted by acetonitrile and purified by using Oasis PRiME HLB solid-phase extraction cartridges. The Ascentis<sup>&#174;</sup> C8 chromatographic column was used to separate the analytes. The quantification was achieved by using matrix-matched standard calibration curves with carazolol-d<sub>7</sub> and propranolol-d<sub>7</sub> as the internal standards. The results show an exceptional linear relationship with the concentrations of analytes over wide concentration ranges (0.5&#8315;500 &#956;g kg<sup>&#8722;1</sup>) as all the fitting coefficients of determination r<sup>2</sup> are &gt; 0.995. All the limits of detection (LODs) and quantitation (LOQs) values were within the respective range of 0.2&#8315;1.5 &#956;g kg<sup>&#8722;1</sup> and 0.5&#8315;5.0 &#956;g kg<sup>&#8722;1</sup>. Overall average recoveries were able to reach 66.1&#8315;100.4% with the intra- and inter-day variability under 10%. This method has been successfully applied to the screening of &#946;-blockers and metabolites in commercial milk powders. At the same time, the corresponding characteristic fragmentation behavior of the 27 compounds was explored. The characteristic product ions were determined and applied to the actual samples screening.
