Data-dependent liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry was utilized to identify leachables from adhesives used in pharmaceutical products. This approach affords a significant increase in the amount of data obtained from a single experiment. No information about the sample is needed a priori t

✦ Synopsis
Liquid chromatography/ion trap mass spectrometry with an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) interface in the negative-ion mode, using collision-induced dissociation (CID) of precursor ions in parallel with UV-diode-array detection (DAD), was applied to the characterization in crude extracts of the water-soluble antioxidant phenolics from Mate ´leaves (Ilex paraguayensis). APCI gives unequivocal information about both the molecular mass of these compounds and some indications about their structure, which were confirmed by the UV-DAD fingerprints and by the diagnostic CID patterns. This allowed the identification of 10 constituents, including the 3 naturally occurring isomers of caffeoylquinic acid (CGA), namely neo-chlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid and crypto-chlorogenic acid, as well as 3 isomeric dicaffeoyl quinic acids, rutin (quercetin-3-rutinoside), a diglycosyl derivative of luteolin, and 2 isomeric caffeoylglucosides. The aqueous extract of Mate ´, quantitatively analyzed for polyphenol and CGA content (HPLC), was tested for antioxidant activity in both a cell-free system (quenching of the stable free radical DPPH, 2,2diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl) and in a model membrane system (phosphatidylcholine liposomes). The results demonstrate that the extract is a strong radical scavenger, considerably more potent than the prototype chlorogenic acid, and this indicates a cooperative antioxidant interaction among its polyphenol components.
