Abstract
Amadori compounds (ACs) are key Maillard intermediates in various foods after thermal processing, and are also important non-saponin components in red ginseng. Currently, due to the difficulty in obtaining AC standards, the determination of multiple ACs is limited and far from optimal. In this study, an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated. A green synthetic method was developed for arginyl-fructosyl-glucose (AFG), the major AC in red ginseng with potential health benefits. The UPLC-MS/MS method was then applied in identification and quantification of ACs in red ginseng samples, which showed for the first time that 12 other ACs also exist in red ginseng in addition to AFG and arginyl-fructose (total 98.88 % of all ACs). Contents of AFG and arginyl-fructose in whole red ginseng were 36.23 and 10.80 mg/g dry weight, respectively. Raw ginseng can be steamed and then dried whole to obtain whole red ginseng, or sliced before drying to obtain sliced red ginseng. Slicing before drying was found to reduce ACs content. Results of the present study will help to reveal the biological functions of red ginseng and related products associated with ACs and promote the standardization of red ginseng manufacture.
