摘要: Tryptophan and metabolites have important biological functions in humans. Milk is an important source of tryptophan intake. In this study, we developed a method to detect levels of tryptophan and 12 metabolites in milk. The analytes were extracted by using the QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) procedure and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. The proposed method resulted in suitable accuracy (standard deviation <= 10.31%) and high sensitivity (the limits of quantification were between 0.05 and 5 ng/mL). Recoveries were in the range of 44 to 126%. Finally, the developed method was successfully applied to compare the content of tryptophan and metabolites in 4 milk products produced by different processes: pasteurized milk, UHT milk, milk powder, and yogurt. The results of partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) showed that different types of processed milk could be distinguished clearly according to the method used here. The determined tryptophan and metabolites levels in milk can provide a new reference for evaluation of milk.
