Determination of Phenolic Compounds by Capillary Zone Electrophoresis–Mass Spectrometry

A CZE-MS method was developed for the determination of several phenolic compounds (phenolic acids, flavonoids). Since the analysis of these components necessitates the application of basic conditions for CZE separation and negative ionization mode for MS detection, the simplest choice was to use 0.5...

description A CZE-MS method was developed for the determination of several phenolic compounds (phenolic acids, flavonoids). Since the analysis of these components necessitates the application of basic conditions for CZE separation and negative ionization mode for MS detection, the simplest choice was to use 0.5 M NH<sub>4</sub>OH and IPA:water (1:1 <i>v</i>/<i>v</i>%) as the background electrolyte and sheath liquid, respectively. The LOD values ranged between 0.004–1.9 mg/L showing that there are relatively large differences in the ionization (and chemical) features of these compounds. The precision data were better than 0.75 RSD% for migration times and were between 5–8 RSD% for peak areas. In order to test the applicability of the developed method, a honey sample was analyzed.
